Crestron eServer™ Ethernet OEM Module
Type: box. Doing so allows the OEM specific definitions to be accessed. Consult the
latest revision of the SIMPL+ Language Reference Guide (Doc. 5797) for details
with respect to OEM Specific SIMPL+ definitions. Selecting compile from the
SIMPL+ environment also builds the .CSZ file, which is sent to the eServer via the
Viewport. The .CSZ file contains an archive of the necessary binary information so
that the eServer can use the SIMPL+ program.
Web Page Demos
The eServer comes preloaded with a few demonstrative web pages and a SIMPL+
module. Before running the demos, the eServer IP address must be set (refer to
"ip_adr" on page 15). Once the IP address is set to a valid address on the network,
start a web browser and in the address field enter the IP address assigned to the
eServer device.
Entering only the IP address of the device results in the default web page being
served. The default web page is defined when web pages are uploaded to the device
(refer to "Appendix B: Uploading Web Pages" on page 33).
Default Web Page
The default web allows the user to select either a switcher or a projector as a
demonstration device. In a real implementation only one device would be controlled
by the eServer . Two devices are included only to demonstrate various
configurations. The default page also contains a shockwave animation to
demonstrate that the eServer can serve many different file types, and is not limited
only to HTML files. If an animated e-control logo does not show up, the browser
being used requires the Macromedia Shockwave™ flash plug-in. The default page
was created using VT Pro-e with minor manual HTML modifications to add the
animation and the hyperlinks. This page also contains hyperlinks to other content.
One is a link to a standard web page that provides information about Crestron. The
other link is to this Operations Guide in PDF format, which demonstrates that an
OEM web project can use a variety of web technologies for device Web pages.
