Appendix A: Interface Setup

This appendix provides information on how to connect various supported interfaces to the Crestron Virtual Control server.

Connection Overview

To connect Ethernet devices, use one of the following methods:

NOTE: A device must only be assigned to one room unless it is a shared device or a touch screen device.

- Use the Connect Request method in Crestron Toolbox™ software to specify the Room ID of the room that is running the .AV Framework program. For more information, refer to the embedded Crestron Virtual Control help file.

NOTE: The latest version of Crestron Toolbox and the latest device firmware are required to use the Connect Request method.

- Set the IP table of the Ethernet device to point to the IP address or hostname of the Crestron Virtual Control server via the device setup pages (if available) or via the IP table dialog box in Crestron Toolbox software.

Devices can also be associated with rooms manually. For more information, refer to the embedded Crestron Virtual Control help file by clicking the help button ? on the top right of the configuration utility.

If a device with older firmware is not on the same subnet as the Crestron Virtual Control server, it cannot be discovered by the server. As a workaround, the admin can create a "device_resolution.cfg" file that contains the FQDN (fully qualified domain name), MAC address, and device type for any cross-subnet devices with older firmware. The Crestron Virtual Control service reads this file on startup and then once every hour while the service is running.

For more information, refer to "Appendix E: Connect Devices with Older Firmware across Subnets" in the Crestron Virtual Control Installation Guide (Doc. 8274).

NOTE: Some older devices, such as the MP-B10/MP-B20 button panels and Crestron Connected devices, may require DNS names to be created manually for them to work with the device resolution configuration.

TSW Series Touch Screens

Connect a supported Crestron TSW series touch screen (TSW-752, TSW-1052, TSW-760, or TSW-1060) to the .AV Framework room to control room scheduling and source selection functions from the touch screen.

NOTE: The .AV Framework touch screen project must be loaded on the touch screen prior to operation.

To connect a TSW series touch screen:
