3 Note: Any changes to load hardware/scene quantity will require a regeneration of the EISC and will result in signal changes. When importing a new or updated RSD file to the A/V program, ensure the appropriate options are selected:
4
5 * "Disconnect signal from Etherenet ISC symbol in program."
6 * "Change Locally: Update signal name in EISC ISC symbol only."

11 ShowRunnerCLC™ provides Ethernet Intersystem Communications interfaces for integration with 3rd party Crestron systems.
12
13 * EISCs may be Classic, 3-Series, or Server/Client (VC-4) types
14 * EISCs can have their IP-ID and IP Address of the remote changed at run-time without a program restart
15 * An RSD file will be built for each EISC and a URL will be displayed on the touchscreen to retrieve it
16 * There are 2 EISC modes and only one mode is supported on an EISC definition, multiple EISCs may be defined
17 ** AV Integration
18 *** Provides a standardized interface for controlling areas
19 *** Area selection may be changed at run-time
20 *** [[AV Integration Demo>>url:https://files.chiefintegrations.com/s/Di4aypEKX7APn8n]]
21 *** Signals Provided per Area (signals vary by Area settings/configuration):
22 **** Area Name
23 **** Occupied
24 **** Occupancy Enable/Disable
25 **** Color Temp Auto
26 **** Color Temp Manual Set and Feedback
27 **** Area Master Raise/Lower
28 **** Save Current Scene

72 ==== Processors with Control Subnets ====
73
74 When integrating a 3-Series EISC with a processor that has both a LAN port and a Control Subnet using a connection over the LAN, there are some additional settings that need to be enabled in order for the integration to work correctly. It is necessary to either set up CWS users and enable a secure (SCIP on port 41796) EISC or run the following commands:
75
76 * ##securegateway default##
77 ** Enables non-secure connections (CIP on port 41794) from the LAN side
78 * ##isolatenetworks off##
79 ** Enables communications between the LAN and the Control Subnet, where the actual control processor is located
80
81 ==== VC-4 Specific Notes ====
82
83 ===== Prerequisites =====
84
85 * VC-4 server installed
86 * Recommended VC-4 server hardened per [[Crestron>>https://support.crestron.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/1001249/kw/harden%20VC-4]]
87 ** Will require SETCSAUTHENTICATION command on processor
88 ** VC-4 installer will need to provide username and password for processor to connect, this is used with SETCSAUTHENTICATION
89 * ShowRunnerCLC™ running on a processor
90 * EISC created in the ShowRunnerCLC™ config
91 * AV program running on VC-4, AV programmer will need to provide the ROOM ID from VC-4
92
93 ===== ShowRunnerCLC™ Config Settings =====
94
95 * Define EiscType in config: ##"EiscType": "VirtualControlEiscClient"##
96 * Define Vc4RoomId in config: ##"Vc4RoomId": "VC4ROOMID"##
97 * IpAddressOrHostname will not used, instead VCSERVERADDR will be used instead
98
99 ===== Processor Settings =====
100
101 * Use console command VCSERVERADDR (or processor configuration pages) to add the VC-4 server IP address or hostname. Example: ##VCSERVERADDR my-vc-4-server.mycorpnet.com##
102 * If security (hardening) is enabled use console command SETCSAUTHENTICATION to enroll the credentials used to login to VC-4. Example: ##SETCSAUTHENTICATION -n:vc4user -p:vc4password##
103 * Reboot after entering the above settings

106 (((
107 ShowRunnerCLC™ will generate the RSD file as an EISC type, the SIMPL Windows programmer will need to convert the symbol to an //EISC Server//.  At the time of this writing, Crestron does not allow import/export of RSD files for //EISC Client//, //EISC Server,// and //Virtual Control EISC Client// types.

111 (((
112 ShowRunnerCLC™ uses analog join 4001 on normal EISCs to confirm the logic is fully online.  Join 4001 is not available on //EISC Client//, //EISC Server,// and //Virtual Control EISC Client// types so 4000 is used instead.
