Setup
Network Wiring
When wiring the DM network, consider the following:
•
Use Crestron Certified Wire.
•
Use Crestron power supplies for Crestron equipment.
CAUTION:
Failure to use Crestron power supplies could cause equipment
damage or void the Crestron warranty.
•
Provide sufficient power to the system.
•
For DM 8G+ or HDBaseT wiring, use Crestron DM-CBL-8G DigitalMedia
8G cable, Crestron DM-CBL DigitalMedia cable, Crestron DM-CBL-D
DigitalMedia D cable, or third-party CAT5e (or better) UTP or STP
.
Maximum wire length for DM 8G+ is 330 feet (100 meters) between
devices.
Shielded cable and connectors are recommended to safeguard
against unpredictable environmental electrical noise which may impact
performance at resolutions above 1080p. For complete system design
guidelines, refer to the Crestron DigitalMedia Design Guide (Doc. 4546).
DM 8G+ is compatible with HDBaseT Alliance specifications for
connecting to HDBaseT compliant equipment.
The DM-RMC-SCALER-C also uses high-speed Ethernet for communications
between the device and a control system, computer, media server, and other IP-based
devices. For general information on connecting Ethernet devices in a Crestron
system, refer to the Crestron e-Control
Reference Guide (Doc. 6052) at
www.crestron.com/manuals. For information specifically related to Ethernet
connectivity using DigitalMedia devices, refer to the Crestron IP Considerations
Guide for the IT Professional (Doc. 4579) at

NOTE:
In the Crestron Studio™ or
SIMPL Windows
program, the IP ID of the
DM-RMC-SCALER-C is assigned automatically and does not require additional
programming when the DM-RMC-SCALER-C is dropped onto an output card of a
DM switcher. Use the information below when the DM-RMC-SCALER-C is
dropped directly into an Ethernet slot on the control system in Crestron Studio or
SIMPL Windows without a DM switcher.
The IP ID is set within the DM-RMC-SCALER-C IP table using Crestron
Toolbox™. For information on setting an IP table, refer to the Crestron Toolbox help
file. The IP IDs of multiple DM-RMC-SCALER-C devices in the same system must
be unique.
When setting the IP ID, consider the following:
•
The IP ID of each unit must match an IP ID specified in the Crestron Studio
or SIMPL Windows program.
•
Each device using IP to communicate with a control system must have a
unique IP ID.
