parameters select the Interface button located in the upper left corner of the Setup
Menu and display the Interface Menu, shown after this paragraph.
Interface Menu
The Cresnet network identity number (CRESNET ID) is displayed at the bottom of
the left-most column in the Interface Menu. CRESNET ID is the two-digit
hexadecimal number represented by ## in the figure for illustrative purposes. The
hexadecimal number can range from 03 to FE and must correspond to the NET ID
set in the SIMPL Windows program of the Cresnet system. Matching IDs between
TPS-TPI and SIMPL Windows program is required if data is to be successfully
transferred. NET ID is factory set to 03.
Two side-by-side buttons beneath the hexadecimal display, DOWN and UP,
decrease and increase the ID by one, respectively.
The TPS-TPI usually communicates with a Cresnet system. Occasionally the unit
can be used in a demo mode where it merely displays various menus, but does not
communicate with Cresnet II system. In demo mode, the directory buttons change
pages, but buttons requiring feedback do not work. Two side-by-side buttons above
the CRESNET ID, Enable CRESNET II and Disable CRESNET II, determine
communication mode. Select Enable CRESNET II for normal Cresnet
communication mode and Disable CRESNET II to set the TPS-TPI into demo
mode. Text within the selected button changes color from black to red.
Communication mode is factory set to Enable CRESNET II.
There may be Ethernet devices on the network that communicate with the control
system via CIP (Cresnet Internet Protocol). Two buttons in the top left corner of the
Interface Menu determines if the TPS-TPI is capable of this type of communication.
Select Enable CIP to permit this protocol recognition and Disable CIP to prohibit
any CIP connection.
The Interface Menu allows for four RS-232 communication options: console (i.e.,
loading programs), control (i.e., non-Crestron device), mouse input, or external touch
screen input. The four buttons in the upper right corner of the menu are available for
selection. Text within the selected button changes color from black to red.
Select the Save and Return button, located at the bottom right corner of the
Interface Menu, after interface parameters have been set.
RS-232 Menu
The primary use of the RS-232 connector on the TPS-TPI is for connection to an
external touch screen or mouse input. RS-232 parameters must be set when
communicating via the RS-232 port. Options for baud rate, data bits, parity, stop bits,
