Upon starting, it acquires the IP address and name of the host PC (the computer on which it is running). If you want the CNX Gateway to begin running automatically when your PC starts, place it in the Windows StartUp menu. Choose tab "Start Menu Programs", and then click on "Add". "CNX Gateway", and click "Finish". Configure the Web Server A terrific feature of e-control is that any standard Web Server works. Crestron has tested the following Web Servers (among others). Win 95/98: Personal Web Server 4. 0 To allow web browser control through the web or a private network, you must use a Web Server. Install from your PC by clicking on the Start button, then Settings, then Control Panel. The Web Server will then be active whenever your PC is up and running. To configure the web server, double click on the icon and set the home directory to the folder where your Web pages reside. Win NT Server (SP 3 or higher): Internet Information Server v4. 0 (IIS) Configuration varies due to security concerns (i. e. , administrator versus user, licensing, and when running). Win NT Workstation: Peer Web Services Peer Web Services is located on the NT CD at \i386\INEISRV as inetstd. exe. Various Environments: Xitami Web Server Xitami is a free download available from imatix (www. imatix. com). Build the Application with ActiveCNX or Java There are separate help files that describe how to build the application with each of the two technologies. They are installed in the same folder as the components that they describe. Please refer to them, and then return to this document (latest revision of Doc. Add Ethernet Capability to the Control System To add Ethernet capability to a SIMPL Windows program using a CNMSX-AV or CNMSX-PRO, select a CNXENET card from the "Plug-In DPA Modules" category and drop it on the DPA card slot. Operations Guide - DOC. 5778A Crestron e-controlTM: Software Development Kit & CNX Gateway · 9 Software Development Kit & CNX Gateway Crestron e-controlTM Ethernet devices that are addressed by the control system may have their IP addresses set either in the SIMPL Windows program or through the Viewport with a PC. 03 through FE, to be used when programming, an Ethernet device is assigned an IP ID which also may range from 03 through FE. Ultimately, each IP ID is converted into an actual IP address through an IP Table that exists inside the CNX control system.
