Setup
Complete the following steps to setup your portable Lighting Case.
1. Apply Power
Open the case lid, simply plug the supplied power cord into the side of
the case (exterior face, near the large handle), and then into a standard
120 VAC wall receptacle.
NOTE: The following step describes the IP setup for a Windows
system. The procedure may vary slightly for other systems.
2. Set IP Address
To setup the static IP address for your laptop, go to Start | Settings | Control Panel and double click Network Connections.
Right click on the icon for your Ethernet adapter and select Properties.
Highlight the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) selection and click the Properties button.
Select the radio button labeled Use the following IP address: and enter
in the following information.

Click on OK to exit and save settings.
NOTE: The PAC2 utilizes a dual port Ethernet card with firewall enabled. Use this
as a point for discussions regarding system security. Refer to step 4 for accessing a
web page through a firewall.
3. Ethernet Cable
Connect the supplied Ethernet cross-over cable between the Lighting
Case Ethernet port (marked LAN A) and the Ethernet port on your
laptop. Use the Ethernet cross-over cable supplied with the Crestron
C2N-DEMO Interface Case to connect the Ethernet port on the
Interface Case with the Lighting Case Ethernet port (marked LAN B).
NOTE: Unless you have a hub, a standard Ethernet cable does not work when
connecting the Lighting Case to your laptop.
4. Web Page
Open Internet Explorer on your laptop and type in the following
address: http://192.168.1.2:8080
specially defined path through the firewall. Use this opportunity to
discuss other security features such as SSL (Secure Socket Layer).

System Functionality
This section describes each interface and how it is intended to function. This
information should be useful in how you approach your sales presentation, enabling
you to concentrate on the features most relevant to your customer.
Since this system was programmed in D3 Pro, it is important to understand what
features are available as they apply to each interface. The first thing to examine is
the way buttons can be programmed. This is defined as a “Button Model” in D3 Pro.
There is a wide variety of button models available to suit particular applications. All
of these models are listed with a description of how each function.
Button Models
Single Press
The single press button model provides one programmable event, meaning that when
you press this button, it always does the same thing.
Single Press + Dim
The single press + dim button model adds dimming capabilities to the single press
button model. If you press and release the button within 0.5 seconds, the button
operates normally. If you hold the button for longer than 0.5 seconds, the button
enters multi-dim mode. Once in this dimming mode, each alternate press of the
button ‘dims up’ or ‘dims down’ all the lights assigned to this button. That is, each
time the dim operation is activated, the lights dim in the opposite direction from the
last dimming operation. If all the lights are currently off, then the lights always ‘dim
up’.
NOTE: Multi-dim mode is a function of a press and hold. When a hold is released,
normal single press functionality resumes.
Toggle
The toggle button model has two programmable events generally referred to as the
on and off events. Each one of the events can be programmed independently, but are
usually programmed so that the first tap of the button turns on a light or lights to a
preset level and the second press turns it or them off.
Toggle + Dim
The toggle + dim button model adds dimming capabilities to the toggle button
model. If you press and release the button within 0.5 seconds, the button operates
normally. If you hold the button for longer than 0.5 seconds, the button enters multidim mode. Once in this dimming mode, each alternate press of the button ‘dims up’
or ‘dims down’ all the lights assigned to the press 1 event. That is, each time the dim
operation is activated, the lights dim in the opposite direction from the last dimming
operation. If all the lights are currently off, then the lights always ‘dim up’.
NOTE: Multi-dim mode is a function of a press and hold. When a hold is released,
normal toggle functionality resumes.
Crestron C2N-DEMO Lighting Case Demonstration Case
Multi-Press
The multi-press button model triggers different actions each time the button is
pressed, to a maximum of 10 button presses. If the button is not pressed after a
specified period, a timeout event occurs and the button resets. Thus, the next button
press triggers the first event. A timeout is also an event that can trigger actions. If the
timeout period is set to 0 seconds, then the timeout event never occurs and the button
simply cycles through each press action. By default, this button model generates
momentary feedback for each press, and blinks once when the timeout event occurs.
Tap and Hold
The tap and hold button model triggers different actions depending on whether the
user taps the button, or presses and holds the button for a specified ‘hold time’. By
default, this button model generates momentary feedback for a tap and blinking
feedback for a hold.
Timeout
The timeout button model triggers one or more actions when the user presses the
button, as with a single press button model. If the button is not pressed again for a
specified time (as set in the timeout field) then a timeout event occurs, which also
triggers actions. Pressing the button when the timer is still counting re-triggers the
press event and restarts the timer. By default, this button model generates
momentary feedback while the button is pressed, and blinks when the timeout
occurs.
Press and Release
The press/release button model triggers one set of actions when the button is pressed
and a different set of actions when it is released. In this way, you can assign actions
to both the rising and falling edge of the button press signal. By default, this button
model generates momentary feedback.
Master Raise/Lower
A master raise or lower button model raises or lowers all the lights associated with
the last button that was pressed on the keypad.
Learnable Lighting
Learnable lighting is a button model modifier. The toggle and single press have this
option that allows the end user to dynamically change and resave the lighting levels
programmed to the press event. To use this feature, simply manually adjust light
levels for a given scene. Then press and hold the scene button that has learnable
lighting selected.
Feedback Types
In addition to button models, each model also has selectable feedback types. Some
feedback types are applicable to all button models while others are more specific.
Always On
The button’s feedback is always active (e.g., LED is always illuminated).
Demonstration Case Crestron C2N-DEMO Lighting Case
Always Off
The button’s feedback is always inactive (e.g., LED is never illuminated).
Momentary
The button’s feedback is active while the button is being pressed and inactive when
the button is released.
On when ANY light in preset is ON
The button’s feedback is active if any of the lights assigned to the button’s press or
tap event are above 0%.
On when ALL lights in preset are ON
The button’s feedback is active only if all the lights assigned to the button’s press or
tap event are above 0%.
On when ALL lights are at PRESET LEVEL
The button’s feedback is active only if all the lights assigned to the button’s press or
tap event are at their target values.
Linked to a device output
This type of feedback links the button’s feedback directly to another device in the
program. When you select a device from the Source Device list, the Output Signal
list provides the digital outputs per the device. Once you select the device and output
signal, the button’s feedback is active for as long as that output signal is high.
Interfaces
This section reviews each interface in the system and describes the features and
functions of each button press. If the button provides lighting control, these
descriptions utilize the aforementioned information such as button model and
feedback type. In addition to this, each button description lists the lighting load it
controls in the virtual house.
NOTE: The light bulbs in the demonstration case only refer to one zone of lights in
one room of the virtual house. The entire house can be monitored from the web
project under the monitor selection.
NOTE: The eight light bulbs represent loads. Refer to “Case Contents” on page 2
for an illustration.
NOTE: The following abbreviations are used, if applicable. Button model is
abbreviated as BM. Feedback type is abbreviated as FB.

Due to the vast number of possibilities associated with touchpanel interfaces, it is not
realistic to provide a detailed button-by-button overview of functionality. We trust
