Cresnet Master-Slave Modes
Every device (including a control system) is assigned a unique Cresnet ID (Net ID).
Master control systems always use Net ID 02. If a control system is to be used as a
slave device, its Net ID must be changed to a hexadecimal value ranging from 03 to
FE.
Use Crestron Toolbox to establish communications between the control system and
your PC as described on page 5. After establishing communications, Crestron
Toolbox can be used to set the Net ID and change a control system from a master
system to slave device, and back.
Cresnet Master Mode
After establishing communications with the control system, select Functions |
Cresnet ID… to open the “Cresnet ID” window.
