Installation Testing
How to Install CRSC
The CR Series (Compact Router) is available on the CD (SB0033-xx) that ships with the equip-
ment. CRSC is a Java application and the installer installs a Java runtime support package. The
installer creates a desktop shortcut for CRSC and makes an entry in Windows’ Start menu for
CRSC.
To install, place the CD in the CD drive of your PC. The CD should autoplay and present an option
to run the CRSC installer. Choose the option and follow the instructions. The software installation
process takes about one minute.
Installation Testing
After installing CRSC, launch CRSC by clicking the desktop icon or selecting ‘NVISION > Com-
pact Router System Configurator’ from the ‘Start’ menu. Click the ‘Compact Router Series Ether-
net Settings’ link to open the ‘Compact Router Series Ethernet Settings’ page and view list of
devices in your network.
Examine the list of devices and note if any of the following exist:
• No entries in the list. Either you have no network or the network is not properly connected to
your PC. Ensure that your PC has an Ethernet connection to the Ethernet switch for the net-
work.
• Entries read “IP Conflict.” There might be a duplicate IP address. To fix this issue, adjust the
rotary switch setting on your frames. The switch settings for each router must be unique from
any other router; the switch settings for each remote panel module must be unique from any
other remote panel module. (See
Rotary Switches on page 10.)
If you determine that IP addresses are not a problem, one of the frames might be disconnected,
have no power, or might be defective. Again, check Ethernet connections, power connections,
and power supplies. A power supply light and the power indicators on all routers, remote panel
modules, and control panels should be on.
• Entries read “Different Subnet.” These are frames that are detectable by CRSC, but are not on a
currently available subnet. To view available subnets, move the mouse pointer and hover over
“Different Subnet.” A popup list of available subnets appears.
There are several options for such entries:
Change the IP address of the frame to the current subnet.
Change the IP address or subnet of the configuration PC.
Change the IP address in some other way, but leaving the device on some other subnet.
Physically remove the frame from the network by disconnecting the connecting cables.
Fix any problems and click Refresh List on the ‘Compact Router Series Ethernet Settings’ page to
view an updated list of devices. Once the network is functioning properly, you are ready to use
CRSC to perform other tasks.
