PROCISE™ Surround Sound Amplifier Crestron PROAMP(I)-7X400
Setup
Network Wiring
When wiring the Cresnet and Ethernet network, consider the following:
• Use Crestron Certified Wire.
• Use Crestron power supplies for Crestron equipment.
• Provide sufficient power to the system.
CAUTION: Insufficient power can lead to unpredictable results or damage
to the equipment. Please use the Crestron Power Calculator to help calculate
how much power is needed for the system (
www.crestron.com/calculators ).
Cresnet For networks with 20 or more devices, use a Cresnet Hub/Repeater (CNXHUB) to
maintain signal quality.
For more details, refer to “Check Network Wiring” on page 23.
Ethernet The PROAMP-7X400 can also use high-speed Ethernet for communications
between the device and a control system, computer, digital media server and other
IP-based devices.
For information on connecting Ethernet devices in a Crestron system, refer to the
latest version of the Crestron e-Control
®
Reference Guide (Doc. 6052), which is
available from the Crestron website ( www.crestron.com/manuals ).
Identity Code
Net ID The Net ID of the PROAMP-7X400 has been factory set to 9C. The Net IDs of
multiple PROAMP-7X400 devices in the same system must be unique. Net IDs are
changed from a personal computer (PC) via Crestron Toolbox™ (refer to
“Establishing Communication” on page 19).
When setting the Net ID, consider the following:
• The Net ID of each unit must match an ID code specified in the SIMPL™
Windows program.
• Each network device must have a unique Net ID.
• If an IP ID is set, Cresnet communication with the PSPHD is disabled. The
PROAMP-7X400 can use either a Cresnet connection or Ethernet
connection. It cannot use both.
For more details, refer to the Crestron Toolbox help file.
IP ID The IP ID is set within the PROAMP-7X400’s table using Crestron Toolbox. For
information on setting an IP table, refer to the Crestron Toolbox help file. The IP IDs
of multiple PROAMP-7X400 devices in the same system must be unique.
When setting the IP ID, consider the following:
• The IP ID of each unit must match an IP ID specified in the SIMPL
Windows program.
• Each device using IP to communicate with a control system must have a
unique IP ID.
