Crestron Adagio™ AES Entertainment System
Uploading and Upgrading
Crestron recommends using the latest programming software and that each device
contains the latest firmware to take advantage of the most recently released features.
However, before attempting to upload or upgrade it is necessary to establish
communication. Once communication has been established, files (for example,
programs, or firmware) can be transferred to the control system (and/or device).
Finally, program checks can be performed (such as changing the device ID or
creating an IP table) to ensure proper functioning.
While the next section provides an overview for communication, refer to
“Establishing Communications with the Control System” in the Crestron 2-Series
Control Systems Reference Guide (Doc. 6256) for connection details. If
communications cannot be established, refer to “Troubleshooting Communications”
in the same guide.
Establishing Communication
Use Crestron Toolbox for communicating with the AES; refer to the Crestron
Toolbox help file for details. There are three methods of communication.
Direct Serial Communication
NOTE: Serial Communication or USB communication (see below) must be used
for initial setup of Ethernet parameters when the out-of-the-box functionality is not
used.

SERIAL VIA CRESTRON
CABLE STCP-502
OR EQUIVALENT
• The COMPUTER port on the AES connects to the serial port on the PC via
the included serial cable (Crestron STCP-502PC or equivalent).
• Use the Address Book in Crestron Toolbox to create an entry using the
expected serial communication protocol (RS232, auto-detect baud rate, no
parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, XON/XOFF disabled, RTS/CTS enabled).
• Display the AES’ “System Info” window (click the
icon);
communications are confirmed when the device information is displayed.
USB Communication
NOTE: USB Communication or Serial communication (shown above) must be used
for initial setup of Ethernet parameters when the out-of-the-box functionality is not
used.
