The CEN-TVAV can communicate over an Ethernet/local area network (LAN) or wide area network (WAN) using standard Internet protocol (IP) and can be used as a standard Crestron remote control system (herein referred to as the Cresnet system) peripheral or as a "smart" peripheral. [. . . ] Select Diagnostics | Report Network Devices (alternatively, depress F4) and verify that the touchpanel to be loaded reports back and is at the expected NET ID. Select File Transfer | Send Touchpanel (alternatively, depress Alt+T). Set the NET ID to the ID of the touchpanel to be loaded. Browse for the supplied HEX file and click the Open button. The file is sent to the CEN-TVAV and then over the Cresnet network to the touchpanel. Verify that the touchpanel displays a message saying that the upload is in progress. 2. 6. Updating the CEN-TVAV The CEN-TVAV contains an Operating System, a Monitor ROM, and TCP/IP Stack. Although there are separate components, they are packaged together in a Control System Update File. Control system update files have the UPZ extension. It is often necessary to update a control system if new features have been implemented (such as support for new hardware or new language constructs) or if programming "bugs" have been corrected. NOTE: SIMPL Windows version 1. 40. 07 or later is required to update the UPZ. When the UPZ is loaded, the program and SIMPL+ modules will be erased so they must be reloaded after a UPZ is loaded. The following procedure is recommended to load a new UPZ file into the CEN-TVAV. Establish communications with the CEN-TVAV by performing "Obtaining Communications" on page 17. From the Crestron Viewport, select File Transfer | Update Control System as shown on the next page. Operations Guide - DOC. 5720A Ethernet Enabled Programmable TV/AV Controller: CEN-TVAV · 21 Ethernet Enabled Programmable TV/AV Controller Accessing the Update Control System Dialog Box Crestron CEN-TVAV 3. The Update Control System dialog box, shown below, offers the option to enter the path name of a new update file. If the path name is not known, use the Browse button to navigate to a list of available update files. When browsing, choose only update files with a UPZ extension. Update Control System Dialog Box 22 · Ethernet Enabled Programmable TV/AV Controller: CEN-TVAV Operations Guide - DOC. 5720A Crestron CEN-TVAV Ethernet Enabled Programmable TV/AV Controller NOTE: After a file is selected, the "Update Control System" dialog box, as shown below, will query the CEN-TVAV to determine what versions of the Operating system, Monitor ROM, and TCP/IP Stack are currently running. To start the transfer, click the Send button as shown below. The transfer dialog will display the progress in updating the selected components. Example Update Control System Dialog Box 5. As a result of the update, a dialog box (similar to as shown below) may open and the SIMPL program (and possibly SIMPL+ modules) must be cleared. As shown, click the Yes button. Continue with transfer? [. . . ] IP Table An IP table lists IP IDs and their corresponding IP addresses. This table is maintained inside each CNX control system, though it may be generated by a SIMPL Windows program, or edited manually using the Viewport utility. MAC Address MAC address is a unique hardware address assigned to every network device in use. The MAC address is assigned by Crestron at the factory and is never changed. [. . . ]
