“Set Net ID by TSID” Window
4. Click on the Search for Touch Settable Devices button. The system
searches the network and lists all TSID-enabled devices found. The list is
similar to the report produced by pressing F4 (Report Network Devices);
the first eight digits of each line constitute the TSID number (hexadecimal
form of the serial number).
5. As you enter either the serial number or TSID number of the device that
requires a change, the corresponding TSID or serial number automatically
appears in its appropriate field, and the list scrolls to and highlights the
device listing. The listing should show the device’s current Cresnet ID.
6. Enter the Cresnet ID that the device should be set to and click OK. The
number you enter should appear on the list.
CAUTION: This function does not prevent you from setting duplicate IDs. Be sure
to check current assignments before entering the desired Cresnet ID number.
Serial Number to TSID Conversion
This utility is useful in a case where there are multiple devices of the same type on a
network, you need to locate a particular one, you know the TSID but not the serial
number, and your site installation list is based on device serial numbers. In this (or
the reverse) situation, do the following:
1. Open the Crestron Viewport.
2. From the Viewport menu, select Functions | Serial Number ÅÆ TSID
Conversion Tool. The “Serial Number ÅÆTSID Conversion Tool”
window is displayed. (Refer to the following figure.)
