Upload the CA-Signed Certificate
Once the CA validates the CSR, the CA issues the certificate. The certificate is
usually sent to the requester via e-mail, in the following format:
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----

-----END CERTIFICATE-----
1. Copy and paste the text between the “Begin Certificate” and “End
Certificate” delimiters to a text file using a text editor such as Notepad.
2. Save the file on your hard drive and name the file srv_cert.cer.
3. In Viewport, select File Transfer | Generate Certificate Request | Upload
Signed Certificate.
4. Locate the directory where you saved srv_cert.cer and click Open. This will
upload the signed certificate to the \SYS directory of the 2-Series control
system in DER format, i.e., \\sys\srv_cert.der.
Upload Root Certificate
Along with the signed certificate, all CAs also electronically give access to what is
called a root certificate. A root certificate is a document that validates the CA itself.
At the time of sending the signed certificate, most CAs provide a URL to where their
root certificate is stored. The buyer of the signed certificate may then download the
root certificate onto the server. Uploading the root certificate is identical to the
procedure for uploading signed certificate. The only difference is that the root
certificate is stored as: \\sys\ rootCA_cert.der.
Enable SSL with CA-signed certificate
1. Open Crestron Toolbox and establish a serial connection to the 2-Series
control system as described in “Serial Connection” on page 5.
2. Select Functions | SSL Management… to open the “SSL Management”
Window.
