Crestron CEN-TVAV 

Ethernet Enabled Programmable TV/AV Controller

8. Select 

Diagnostics | Check Operating System Version (alternatively, 

depress F5) from the Viewport. The Viewport may display a window 
as it scans various baud rates. Eventually, a message should appear in 
the Incoming section showing a version number. Such a response 
indicates that communications have been established.  

If a “No Communications with Rack” error message opens, proceed to 
“Troubleshooting Communications” on page 19. If the baud rate of the 
CEN-TVAV was something other than 38400, the software 
automatically adjusts the baud rate to 38400.  

Instead of communicating by plugging into each CEN-TVAV in a large installation 
via RS-232 in order to upload programs/firmware/etc., the CEN-TVAV console can 
be accessed via TCP/IP. Complete the following steps to establish communication 
with the CEN-TVAV.  

1.  If using the Stand-alone Viewport, open the Viewport and proceed to 

step 5. To access the Viewport via SIMPL Windows, select Start | 
Programs | Crestron | SIMPL Windows to start SIMPL Windows.  

2.  SIMPL Windows responds with an opening splash screen and may 

display the “What do you want to do?” dialog box. If so, close the 
dialog box.  

3.  As shown below, select Remote | TCP/IP | Connect to open the 

Crestron Viewport dialog box.  

 

4.  Enter the IP address of the CEN-TVAV, then click on the Connect 

button. 

5.  Observe the Viewport connect to the CEN-TVAV.  

If communications with the CEN-TVAV has not been established, follow the steps in 
this section to help remedy the problem.  

1.  If a program is already loaded into CEN-TVAV, refer to “Special 

Considerations for Using the RS-232 Port for Uploading Programs” on 
page 9 for further information. 

2.  Verify that the cable being used is correct. (If cable is not available, 

refer to “Programming Cable Fabrication Specifications” on page 9.)
