Satellite Radio Tuner Crestron C2N-TXM
Uploading and Upgrading
Crestron recommends using the latest programming software and that each device
contains the latest firmware to take advantage of the most recently released features.
However, before attempting to upload or upgrade it is necessary to establish
communication. Once communication has been established, files (for example,
programs or firmware) can be transferred to the control system (and/or device).
Finally, program checks can be performed (such as changing the device ID or
creating an IP table) to ensure proper functioning.
Establishing Communication
Use Crestron Toolbox for communicating with the C2N-TXM; refer to the Crestron
Toolbox help file for details. There is a single method of communication: indirect
communication.

C2N-TXM
C2N-TXM connects to the rol system via Cresnet:
1. Establish communication between the PC and the control system as
described in the latest version of the 2-Series Control Systems Reference
Guide (Doc. 6256).
2. Use the Address Book in Crestron Toolbox to create an entry for the
C2N-TXM using the expected communication protocol (indirect). Select the
Cresnet ID of the C2N-TXM and the address book entry of the control
system that is connected to the C2N-TXM.
3. Display the C2N-TXM’s “System Info” window (click the
icon);
communications are confirmed when the device information is displayed.
Programs and Firmware
Program or firmware files may be distributed from programmers to installers or from
Crestron to dealers. Firmware upgrades are available from the Crestron Web site as
new features are developed after product releases. One has the option to upload
programs via the programming software or to upload and upgrade via the Crestron
Toolbox. For details on uploading and upgrading, refer to the SIMPL Windows help
file or the Crestron Toolbox help file.
SIMPL Windows
If a SIMPL Windows program is provided, it can be uploaded to the control system
using SIMPL Windows or Crestron Toolbox.
