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,
firmware) can be transferred to the device. In addition, the IP table of the device can
be configured.
NOTE:
Crestron software and any files on the website are for authorized Crestron
dealers and Crestron Service Providers (CSPs) only. New users must register to
obtain access to certain areas of the site (including the FTP site).
Establishing Communication
Use Crestron Toolbox for communicating with the DM-RMC-SCALER-C; refer to
the Crestron Toolbox help file for details.
A PC running Crestron Toolbox communicates with the DM-RMC-SCALER-C in
the following ways:
•
Via a DM switcher using TCP/IP or USB communication. TCP/IP provides
a faster method of communication than USB.
•
Via the
LAN
port of the DM-RMC-SCALER-C using TCP/IP
communication. In this scenario, the DM-RMC-SCALER-C is used in a
standalone configuration (a DM switcher is not used).

To establish TCP/IP communication between the PC and the DM-RMC-SCALER-C
via the DM switcher:
1. Establish communication between the PC and the DM switcher as described
in the DigitalMedia Switchers Operations Guide (Doc. 6755).
2. Use the Device Discovery Tool in Crestron Toolbox to find the IP address
of the DM-RMC-SCALER-C. The tool is available in Toolbox version
1.15.143 or later.
3. Use the Address Book in Crestron Toolbox to create an entry for the
DM-RMC-SCALER-C using the
TCP
connection type, and enter the IP
address of the DM-RMC-SCALER-C.
4. Display the DM-RMC-SCALER-C’s “System Info” window
(
Tools | System Info
); communications are confirmed when the device
information is displayed.
