Crestron Series 1600 Wired Touchpanels Series 1600 Wired Touchpanels Description Functional Description The Series 1600 Touchpanels are 5.7-inch (14.4-cm) touchscreen control panels for any Crestron remote control system (herein referred to as the control system). There are six Series 1600 models available. Options are color versus grayscale, adjustable tiltcase versus lectern/wall mount, and “Designer Series” color cover. Model selection is based on application requirements.
Wired Touchpanels Crestron Series 1600 Software Series 1600 color models have one 256-color palette. Therefore, all custom colors are mapped to the nearest color in the standard palette, such that colors from the custom color dialog box may not be exactly represented. If the precise shade is not immediately achieved, the solution is to experiment with a slightly different color from the custom color dialog box in VT Pro-e.

Wired Touchpanels Crestron Series 1600 Leading Specifications The table after this paragraph provides a summary of leading specifications for the Series 1600 Touchpanels. Dimensions and weight are rounded to the nearest hundredth unit. NOTE: Check the Crestron FTP site (www.crestron.com) periodically for the latest firmware versions. Search in the TOUCHPNL Library. New users are required to register in order to obtain access to the FTP site.
Crestron Series 1600 Wired Touchpanels Installation/Setup Identity Code Every equipment and user interface within the network requires a unique identity code (NET ID). A two-digit hexadecimal number from 03 to FE is representative of these codes. Refer to "Setup Menu" on page 9 for instructions on setting the unit's NET ID. The NET ID of the unit must match the NET ID specified in the SIMPL Windows program. Refer to "SIMPL™ Windows Programming" on page 11 for a sample.
Wired Touchpanels Crestron Series 1600 NOTE: All network wiring must consist of two twisted-pairs. One twisted pair is the +24V conductor and the GND conductor and the other twisted pair is the Y conductor and the Z conductor. NOTE: When daisy-chaining Cresnet units, strip the ends of the wires carefully to avoid nicking the conductors. Twist together the ends of the wires that share a pin on the network connector, and tin the twisted connection. Apply solder only to the ends of the twisted wires.

Search for the CT-1600.SMW project in the SIMPL Windows Example Base (on the CD) or the EXAMPLES Library (Downloads page of the FTP site). How the Program Works A basic Series 1600 Touchpanel SIMPL program is shown after this paragraph in block diagram form. For this example, the CT-1600 is the user interface in a control system containing a CNMSX-PRO.

How to Create the Program Use the Configuration Manager workspace in SIMPL Windows to select and configure all the devices that need to be included into the system. For this example, add a CNXCOM-2 to slot #1 of the CNMSX-PRO. Also add a CT-1600 to the system; its NET ID must be set to 03, shown after this paragraph. NOTE: SIMPL Windows v1.30.
Wired Touchpanels Crestron Series 1600 “Device Settings” Dialog Box Use the Programming Manager workspace in SIMPL Windows to select symbols and assign their respective signals. For this example, a touchpanel and CNXCOM-2 symbols were added automatically when the devices were added to the system in the Configuration Manager workspace. Expand the Network Modules folder and double click on the touchpanel for a detail view (alternatively CTRL+D or drag and drop into Detail View).

To save some typing, \x03 can be entered as the delimiter in the CNXCOM-2 Port A symbol. When present, the delimiter is appended to every string of text in the port definition (both transmitted and received strings). Expand the Logic folder to display the Interlock and NOR symbols integrated into this program.

Indirect Text - Series 1600 Touchpanels support a feature that permits the text field in any user-defined button to be altered on the fly in RUN mode. This is accomplished by substituting a text pointer for the text in the button.
