Figure 11: Configuring the module CPDID with Zone ID
If the controller directs the Music Player to play the selected music in zone 3, the
SATP module sends the following text command:
06.03/1/PLAY:\r
The 1U Server receives the command and reroutes the command to the Music
Player (CPDID 06) via TCP/IP over Ethernet. The Music Player identifies the Zone ID
of the command and plays back music in zone 3. The response is directed through
the 1U Server back to the SATP module for zone 3.
Note: If command routing is not used, the Zone ID must still be set for the
zone that the SATP or keypad module will be controlling.
This example has the Crestron processor connected to the 1U Server, but this
process works just as well if the Crestron processor is attached to one of the M500
Players.
Note that CPDID 01 always sends commands to the directly connected device. If the
Crestron processor were connected to the M500 Player with CPDID 02, any
messages sent with CPDID 01 are captured by that player and not routed to any
others. In this case, both 01 and 02 are correct values for the module CPDID
parameter. A direct connection to the controller is the only way to communicate
with a component whose CPDID is set to None.
