Earliest Version Software Requirements for the
PC
NOTE: Crestron recommends that you use the latest software to take advantage of the most recently released features. The latest software is available from the Crestron website.
Crestron has developed an assortment of Windows
®
-based software tools to develop a controlled / Cresnet system. You can create a program to control the DIN-IO8 using the Crestron programming tools Crestron
SystemBuilder, D3 Pro™, or SIMPL Windows. Customers whose focus is on lighting systems may prefer to use the D3 Pro software since it is designed especially for creating lighting and environmental system control applications. Customers already familiar with SIMPL Windows who are including a lighting system as part of an overall control system project may prefer to continue using SIMPL Windows. For the minimum recommended software versions, visit the Version Tracker page of the
Crestron website ( www.crestron.com/versiontracker ).
Programming with Crestron SystemBuilder
Crestron SystemBuilder is the easiest method of programming but does not offer as much flexibility as SIMPL Windows. For additional details, download SystemBuilder from the Crestron website and examine the extensive help file.

Check Network Wiring
Use the Right
Wire
In order to ensure optimum performance over the full range of your installation topology, Crestron Certified Wire and only Crestron Certified
Wire may be used. Failure to do so may incur additional charges if support is required to identify performance deficiencies because of using improper wire.
Calculate
Power
CAUTION: Use only Crestron power supplies for Crestron equipment.
Failure to do so could cause equipment damage or void the Crestron warranty.
CAUTION: Provide sufficient power to the system. Insufficient power can lead to unpredictable results or damage to the equipment. Please use the Crestron Power Calculator to help calculate how much power is needed for the system ( www.crestron.com/calculators ).
When calculating the length of wire for a particular Cresnet run, the wire gauge and the Cresnet power usage of each network unit to be connected must be taken into consideration. Use Crestron Certified Wire only. If
Cresnet units are to be daisy-chained on the run, the Cresnet power usage of each network unit to be daisy-chained must be added together to determine the Cresnet power usage of the entire chain. If the unit is home-run from a Crestron system power supply network port, the
Cresnet power usage of that unit is the Cresnet power usage of the entire run. The wire gauge and the Cresnet power usage of the run should be used in the following equation to calculate the cable length value on the equation’s left side.
Operations & Installation Guide – DOC. 6664A DIN Rail Versiport Module: DIN-IO8
• 25
DIN Rail Versiport Module Crestron DIN-IO8
Cable Length Equation
L <
40,000
R x P
Where:
L = Length of run (or chain) in feet
2
R = 6 Ohms (Crestron Certified Wire : 0.75 MM (18 AWG))
P = Cresnet power usage of entire run (or chain )
Make sure the cable length value is less than the value calculated on the right side of the equation. For example, a Cresnet run using 0.75mm
2
(18 AWG) Crestron Certified Wire and drawing 20 watts should not have a length of run more than 101 meters (333 feet). Cresnet-HP cannot be used.
NOTE: All Crestron certified Cresnet wiring must consist of two twisted pairs. One twisted pair is the +24V conductor and the GND conductor and the other twisted pair is the Y conductor and the Z conductor.
Strip and Tin
Wire
Add Hubs
When daisy-chaining Cresnet units, strip the ends of the wires carefully to avoid nicking the conductors. Twist together the ends of the wires that share a pin on the network connector and tin the twisted connection.
Apply solder only to the ends of the twisted wires. Avoid tinning too far up the wires or the end becomes brittle. Insert the tinned connection into the Cresnet connector and tighten the retaining screw. Repeat the procedure for the other three conductors.
Use of a Cresnet Hub/Repeater (DIN-HUB) is advised whenever the number of Cresnet devices on a network exceeds 20 or when the combined total length of Cresnet cable exceeds 914 meters (3000 feet).
