Description

Functional Description

The wireless mouse is a hand-held user interface that uses radio frequency (RF) to
communicate with the CRESNET system, SmarTouch STS or the portable
SmartPresenter system. As part of the CRESNET system, the wireless mouse
communicates with the system via the CNRFGWA, RF receiver. As part of the
SmarTouch STS, the wireless mouse communicates with the system via the ST-CP,
control processor. When used with the SmartPresenter system, the wireless mouse
communicates with the system control processor, SP-1.
NOTE: The CNRFGWA must have PROM # 2251 for wireless mouse support. A
CNRFGWA with this PROM reports on the network with software version 2.00.
Early versions of the CNRFGWA do not support the wireless mouse.
Models
There are two CRESTRON wireless mice available: CNWM and CNWML. The
only difference between the two configurations is that one, the CNWML, is
equipped with a laser pointer. The laser can be turned ON and OFF by depressing
the center button (button 5) or button 4 on the keypad of the unit.
CNWM/L used with Cresnet
By design, the most logical application for the wireless mouse is as the user interface
in a presentation system. The wireless mouse and PC keyboard/mouse controller,
CNMK, can be added to control your PC presentation. These devices in conjunction
with CRESTRON’s simple-to-use Windows software improve the portability of the
user interface. They facilitate the transmission of programmed PC mouse and
keyboard operations as well as serial and IR device commands remotely.
CNWM/L used with SmarTouch
The CNWM/L can be used in a SmarTouch system. SmarTouch is a radio frequency
(RF) control system that offers unprecedented performance and value. Adding the
CNWML to the SmarTouch system offers keyboard and mouse emulation (with
optional CNMK) and multi-purpose AV control.

CRESTRON
CNWM/L used with SmartPresenter
The wireless mouse serves as the RF transmitter for the SmartPresenter
system.
This is a unique presentation system that is fully operational using the wireless mouse. With only the compact SP-1 control processor and the wireless mouse, users can control up to four IR devices and one RS-232 device. SmartPresenter has the potential to control up to six functions per device. Functions are assigned to the four positions of the mouse button, the mouse trigger, and the center keypad button on the wireless mouse. The SmartPresenter system can be programmed easily in the field using the CNWM/L. Refer to the SmartPresenter Quick Guide (DOC. 5742) for additional information on field programming.

Physical Description

The wireless mouse, shown below, is housed in a black plastic enclosure that can easily fit in the user’s palm. Nearly all the buttons, except for the trigger, can be found on the topside of the unit. The trigger can be found on the bottom of the unit. Button placement has been carefully designed into the unit for ease of use.

Notice the lined paper beneath the clear plastic cover that surrounds the keypad buttons. Once functionality has been assigned to the keypad buttons, a brief description can be written on the lined paper. For a more professional look, a label kit (SP-LK) is available for the wireless mice. The SP-LK label kit provides a sheet of the most common control functions and several pre-cut mouse inlay cards.
To access the inlay card, refer to "Accessing the Inlay Card" on page 18.
Two AAA-sized batteries are provided with the wireless mouse. Access to the battery compartment is permitted after the battery cover is removed. A sensor (photo transistor) used to program the RF identity code is also located in the battery compartment.

NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. The equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which
the receiver is connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
As of the date of manufacture, the unit has been tested and found to comply with specifications for CE marking.

General Use and Safety

DANGER: The CNWML contains a Class IIIa laser. Avoid direct eye exposure.
Compliance to the following suggestions may extend the life of the wireless mouse and laser.
If the unit is not going to be used for a month or longer, remove batteries. Never leave weak or dead batteries in the unit; they might leak chemicals that can damage the unit.
Use care when handling the unit. Dropping the unit can unfocus the lens, damage circuit boards, and cause the unit to work improperly.
Operate and store the unit in moderate temperatures. Do not place the unit in environments below freezing or exceeding 110°F. Temperature extremes can shorten the life of electrical devices, damage the batteries, and distort or melt plastic parts.
Keep the unit away from dust and dirt that can cause premature wear on parts. Use a damp cloth to wipe the unit. Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean the device.

RF Identity Code

Every hand-held wireless transmitter communicating with either the SmartPresenter, ST-CP or CNRFGWA requires a unique RF identity (ID) code. The code is a two-
4 Wireless Mouse Operations Guide - DOC. 5700A
CRESTRON
digit hexadecimal number. To maintain code diversity within a system, use codes between 10 and FE for the transmitters. There are two methods to change the RF ID code on the wireless mouse: via the CNIDC (Identity Code Cable) and Viewport software or depressing buttons on the unit that represent a binary code.
NOTES: The RF ID CODE on the wireless mouse is factory set to 30.
Only use 10 through FE as RF ID code.
Do not confuse RF ID with network (NET) ID.

Match CNWM/L ID to SP-1 Receiver (SmartPresenter)

Depress and hold the recessed button #1 on the SP-1 for at least 5 seconds (use a paper clip or similar object) or until the red RF LED flashes on the SP-1.
Depress (position A) button on the CNWM/L while the RF LED flashes. Observe that RF LED stops flashing and remains illuminated for about 4 seconds.
NOTE: An extinguished LED indicates a match of CNWM/L ID to that of the SP-1.
If the RF ID does not match, refer to "Change RF ID via CNWM/L Button Presses" on page 7.

Verify RF ID with Crestron Software (not required for SmartPresenter)

Use the Crestron Performance VeiwPort to view transmitter ID codes. Using either SIMPL Windows or VisionTools Pro, select ViewPort from the Tools menu; the “Crestron Performance Viewport” dialog box, shown below, appears.
From the Diagnostics menu in the dialog box, select Identify Transmitter ID to open the “Transmitter Identification” dialog box. Press a button on the transmitter, ViewPort will display the transmitter ID in hexadecimal format.
