Single Gang Keypads: CNX-B2/B4/B6/B8/B12
Operations & Installation Guide - DOC. 8173A
These files can be stored into and programmed for use in the keypad
directly or may be edited with the Sound Recorder. For example, the
individual files can be combined to create custom messages.
To play WAV files, a CNX-B12 project must be created in VT Pro-e
(with the WAV files and correct join numbers as part of the project).
NOTE
: If you need to create WAV files, refer to Windows Help (Using
Sound Recorder).
NOTE:
The following are acceptable file extensions for WAV file
programs developed for the keypads:
.
vtp
projectname.
vtp (source file)
.hex
projectname
.hex (compiled file)
NOTE
: Join numbers assigned to a WAV file in VT Pro-e begin at 20
because join numbers below 20 are already assigned to other keypad
buttons or functions.
NOTE:
When you begin to create a new keypad program, note that you
cannot assign pages or sub pages (because keypads have no screen).
Instead, use
Tools
|
Sound Manager
from the VT Pro-e menu bar to
create the program and assign joins to the WAV files, etc.
Once the project is created, use
File
|
Upload Project
from the VT Pro-e
main menu to load it in the CNX-B12. For more information, refer to the
VT Pro-e help file.
NOTE
: This can be done after an identity code (NET ID) is assigned to
the keypad (page 8) or after installation (page 12).
Uploading and Upgrading
Assuming a PC is properly connected to the entire system, Crestron
programming software allows the programmer to upload programs and
projects to the system and touchpanel and/or keypads after their
development. However, there are times when the files for the program
and projects are compiled and not uploaded. Instead, compiled files may
be distributed from programmers to installers, from Crestron to dealers,
etc. Even firmware upgrades are available from the Crestron website as
