VisionPC/Control Software

VisionPC/Control software turns a project created in VisionPC/CreateSM into a run-time executable. This

software provides full control and communications to a CRESTRON control system via your PC and a

CNSNET.

Physical Description

CNSNET electronic hardware is housed in a black cold-rolled painted steel box (refer to figures 1 or 2).

Silk screening is applied to the face of one panel of the steel case. Located on this panel is a four-pin

network port (24 Y Z G), a RJ-11 port (RS-232), a red LED (ID SEL), and a green LED (NET PWR).

There are four rubber bumpers on the base of the unit for stability and to prevent slippage.
