Uploading and Upgrading

Crestron recommends using the latest programming software and that
each device contains the latest firmware to take advantage of the most
recently released features. However, before attempting to upload or
upgrade it is necessary to establish communication. Once communication
has been established, files (for example, programs or firmware) can be
transferred to the control system (and/or device). Finally, program checks
can be performed (such as changing the device ID or creating an IP table)
to ensure proper functioning.

Establishing Communication

Use Crestron Toolbox for communicating with the DIN-1DIMU4; refer
to the Crestron Toolbox help file for details. There is a single method of
communication: indirect communication.

Indirect Communication

Cresnet

Control System

PC Running

Crestron Toolbox

or USB

Serial,

LAN

DIN-1DIMU4

DIN-1DIMU4 connects to control system via Cresnet:

1. Establish communication between the PC and the control system

as described in the latest version of the 2-Series Control Systems
Reference Guide (Doc. 6256), which is available from the Crestron
Web site (

www.crestron.com/manuals

).

2. Use the Address Book in Crestron Toolbox to create an entry for

the DIN-1DIMU4 using the expected communication protocol
(indirect). Select the Cresnet ID of the DIN-1DIMU4 and the
address book entry of the control system that is connected to the
DIN-1DIMU4.

3. Display the DIN-1DIMU4’s “System Info” window (click the

icon); communications are confirmed when the device information
is displayed.
