247 247  Below are some generally useful console commands for Crestron devices. Note that while most or all Crestron devices will allow for a Text Console connection, only processors with a running and licensed copy of the ShowRunnerCLC™ software will allow the use of the ShowRunner™ specific "##sr##" commands. Text Console commands for specific tasks/functions required by ShowRunnerCLC™ are covered in more detail on the pages that cover those tasks, but the below commands are generally useful for a variety of tasks:
