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

72 ==== Creating Remote Connections through the UI ====
73
74 * Open the Setting (Gear icon in upper right corner) screen from the main page
75 * Select Crestron Integration
76 * To add and edit a new connection:
77 ** press the + Add at the bottom left corner of the page
78 ** In the left column select the connection you want to edit
79 ** In the middle column enter:
80 *** Connection label
81 *** IP Address of the AV Processor
82 *** IP ID
83 ** Additional features can be selected:
84 *** Ignore Fade Times
85 *** Extended Load Export
86 *** Extended Scene Export
87 ** EISC Type:
88 *** Classic (2-Series Compatible)
89 *** 3-series TCP EISC
90 ** In the right column select all areas needed
91 ** Save by clicking on the Check mark that appears to the right or "Settings:" in the middle column
92 ** Saving will generate an RSD File URL at the bottom of the middle column
93 *** http:~/~/10.0.0.10/ShowRunner/RSDs/IP-ID0xF1Lighting_Interface.rsd
94 *** 10.0.0.10 = Lighting system Processor IP Address
95 *** IP-ID0xF1 = Lighting system Processor IP Table entry for AV integration
96 ** RSD file can also be retrieved from the Toolbox File Manager app
97 *** Open File Manager
98 *** Select Internal Flash/HTML/ShowRunner/RSDs
99 *** all generated RSD files will be available in this folder

101 ==== Processors with Control Subnets ====
102
103 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:
104
105 * ##securegateway default##
106 ** Enables non-secure connections (CIP on port 41794) from the LAN side
107 * ##isolatenetworks off##
108 ** Enables communications between the LAN and the Control Subnet, where the actual control processor is located
109
110 ==== VC-4 Specific Notes ====
111
112 ===== Prerequisites =====
113
114 * VC-4 server installed
115 * Recommended VC-4 server hardened per [[Crestron>>https://support.crestron.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/1001249/kw/harden%20VC-4]]
116 ** Will require SETCSAUTHENTICATION command on processor
117 ** VC-4 installer will need to provide username and password for processor to connect, this is used with SETCSAUTHENTICATION
118 * ShowRunnerCLC™ running on a processor
119 * EISC created in the ShowRunnerCLC™ config
120 * AV program running on VC-4, AV programmer will need to provide the ROOM ID from VC-4
121
122 ===== ShowRunnerCLC™ Config Settings (Exporting from a ShowRunnerCLC™ VC-4) =====
123
124 * Define EiscType in config: ##"EiscType": "EiscServer"##
125 * Everything else defined as normal
126 * RSD file will be available in "/opt/crestron/virtualcontrol/RunningPrograms/**[ROOMID]**/Html/ShowRunner/RSDs/"
127 * When importing the RSD to the AV program, the following steps need to be taken:
128 ** In the configuration tab, right-click the imported EISC and select "Replace"
129 ** Replace the imported RSD with a "VC-4 EISC Client"
130 ** In the device settings for the VC-4 EISC Client, under the IP Net Address tab, add the Room ID for the ShowRunnerCLC™ program on the VC-4
131
132 ===== ShowRunnerCLC™ Config Settings (Importing from a third-party VC-4, ShowRunnerCLC™ on Processor) =====
133
134 * Define EiscType in config: ##"EiscType": "VirtualControlEiscClient"##
135 * Define Vc4RoomId in config: ##"Vc4RoomId": "VC4ROOMID"##
136 * IpAddressOrHostname will not be used, instead VCSERVERADDR console command will be used instead
137
138 ===== Processor Settings =====
139
140 * 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##
141 * 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##
142 * Reboot after entering the above settings

146 ShowRunnerCLC™ will generate the RSD file as an EISC type, the SIMPL Windows programmer will need to convert the symbol to the correct type. At the time of this writing, Crestron does not allow import/export of RSD files for //EISC Client//, //EISC Server,// and //VC-4 EISC Client// types.
147 )))
148
149 (% class="box warningmessage" %)
150 (((
151 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.
