Enter the IP address, IP mask, and default router of the
CEN-RFGW-EX via the Crestron Toolbox (Functions | Ethernet
Addressing); otherwise, leave DHCP enabled. (The unit ships with
DHCP enabled.)
Confirm Ethernet connections between CEN-RFGW-EX and PC.
If connecting through a hub or router, use CAT5 straight through
cables with 8-pin RJ-45 connectors. Alternatively, use a CAT5
crossover cable to connect the two LAN ports directly without
using a hub or router.
Use the Address Book in Crestron Toolbox to create an entry for
the CEN-RFGW-EX with the CEN-RFGW-EX’s TCP/IP
communication parameters.
Display the “System Info” window (click the
icon) and select
the CEN-RFGW-EX entry.
