affordably and give the customer a better experience?

• What types of systems have they used before?

– What did they like about it?– What didn’t they like about it?

• Are there any special features they are y p ylooking for that you should be aware of?

• Ask advantage specific leading questions– If it were easy would you want to ?If it were easy, would you want to…?– Would you use the system more often if…?

Equipment ? • Customers want to re‐use things, sometimes for rational reasons and sometimes not.• Can it be replaced with a unit that will be easier for you to integrate and give a better

experience?p

Previous Experiences?

• Things other gear has done that they enjoyed – repeat that type of experience.• More importantly, find out about what they didn’t like and make sure not to repeat that

experience.

Best Practices ‐ RFA five minute reading can reduce hours of trouble‐shooting calls in the future

29

Setting ExpectationsDefining a scope of work gives the customer an understanding of what they are paying for and identifies your responsibilities

g p

• The scope of work is a document written without industry jargon and terminology that defines the quote

– A simple description of the projects p e desc pt o o t e p oject– The customer should be able to relay the scope to their friends and

family• Help the customer be more comfortable discussing their p gsystem and making referrals

– People are more likely to talk about things they enjoy and understand– Getting your systems talked about positively is the quickest way to g y y p y q y

more referrals• Discuss features that will not be included to reduce confusion

30

Setting ExpectationsA well written scope with a signature explains to the customer

when the project is complete

g p

• A sign‐off on the scope puts the expectations in writing• Close the door on free change‐orders• Avoid free service calls• Leave the User Guide as a system user manual.• Create a material symbol that the project is complete

31

Setting ExpectationsThe documents generated from within the composer will catalog the bill of materials and connections

g p

Test

• Before going to the site, build the system in your shopTest the system prior to delivering the projectg g , y y p

• Check the documentation generated in Composer to make sure you have the correct Crestron gear and have landed the devices in the correct locationsdevices in the correct locations

• Load the project, fully test, and create a test plan for the jobsite

• It is easier to test in your office, than on site in front of your customer

• Properly label all the connectionsp y• Prepare the documentation to take with you to the site

33

DeliverGo to the job with a written scope of work and documentation:

install, demonstrate, and retrieve a sign‐off• Use the test plan created earlier to test and validate system functionality

• If you fully tested the system in your shop previously it will beIf you fully tested the system in your shop previously, it will be easier to identify wiring issues, or other items.

• Have the customer go through the system with you and on th i t th k h t th ttheir own to ensure they know how to use the system

• Make sure the customer is content and agrees that the system has been delivered as promised

• Obtain a sign‐off that the system is complete– Immediately– After a “break‐in” period (30 Days)

• Ad Hoc ‐ Is a Latin phrase which, literally, means "For this". It ll f l d d f f blgenerally signifies a solution designed for a specific problem or

task, non‐generalizable, and which cannot be adapted to other purposes.

• Design ‐ Typically describes a plan for the construction of an object.

• Cookie Cutter ‐ Is defined as a "lack of originality or distinction", a reference to the uniformity that results from thedistinction , a reference to the uniformity that results from the use of a cookie cutter.

become disastrous, if not done correctly. Without a clear understanding of the customers wants– Without a clear understanding of the customers wants and needs, it will be very hard to meet those needs.

– Opens the door for the customer to say “Joe said I could p yhave this while you are here.” While Joe may have said the customer could have it, he may not have said that the customer could have it for the same pricecustomer could have it for the same price.

– Service could become difficult for anyone but the installer (and sometimes for them too) since, if the drawings were done after the job was complete, each person will have figure out how it’s all connected and how it works.how it works.

38

System Design System Design –– Custom DesignCustom Design

Custom Design, while taking more time upfront, will help eliminate questions during installation– Customers needs have been defined and can be met.

• Work with the customer to differentiate between need and want• Work with the customer to differentiate between need and want. Just because we can, does not mean we should. (Motors/Fire)

– Eliminates questions once on site.S i i i i th i i l d i il bl– Service is easier since the original designs are available.

•The TIA/EIA 568‐A standard which was ratified in 1995, was replaced by /the TIA/EIA 568‐B standard in 2002 and has been updated since.

•Both standards define the T‐568A and T‐568B pin‐outs for using Unshielded Twisted Pair cable and RJ‐45 connectors for Ethernet connectivityconnectivity. •The standards and pin‐out specification appear to be related and interchangeable, but are not the same and should not be used interchangeablyinterchangeably.

58


A good way of remembering how to wire a Crossover Ethernet cable is to wire one end using the T‐568A standard and the other end using the T‐

568B standard. Another way of remembering the color coding is to simply y g g p yswitch the Green set of wires in place with the Orange set of wires.

Specifically, switch the solid Green (G) with the solid Orange, and switch the green/white with the orange/white.

• Network: is any collection of independent computers, printers, and peripheral devices that are connected by cables. A network incorporating e‐Control will also typically include connected Crestron control systems, network control modules, and touchpanels that control AV, lighting, and other equipment.

• Node: is a device that is connected to the network. Networks can have tens, thousands, or even millions of nodes.

• Local Area Networks (LANs): are usually confined to a geographicLocal Area Networks (LANs): are usually confined to a geographic area, such as a single building or a college campus. LANs can be small, linking as few as two or three computers, but often can link hundreds of computers used by thousands of people. p y p p

• Wide Area Networks (WANs): such as the Internet combine multiple LANs that are geographically separate.

• Dynamic IP addressTh IP dd b k d f l i d– The IP address, subnet mask, default router, etc. are issued upon connection of the device and removed when that device is logged off.

• Used for users that are not connected for long periods of g ptime.

• Administration can be handled from a central location so requires limited or no on‐site time by IT professionals.

What is an IP Address??

• It is a 32 bit number that defines the exact location, and the devicedevice.

64


What is a Subnet??

• A subnet is a range of logical addresses within the address space that is assigned to an organization

• For example suppose a home network consists of computers• For example, suppose a home network consists of computers named Foo and Bar, connected to a router, and then via a cable modem to the internet. The home network is configured as a subnet. Address 192.168.1.100 is assigned to Foo, andas a subnet. Address 192.168.1.100 is assigned to Foo, and 192.168.1.101 to Bar. The subnet has been configured so that the first three bytes of its members' addresses are all the same subnet id, 192.168.1, and this fact is expressed by the subnet mask 255.255.255.0

Networking with CrestronNetworking with Crestron•The 1st generation of Crestron etherent

card (CN-ENET) was no more than a NIC (Network Interface Card).

•The network was configured with software•The network was configured with software, called the CNXGateway, running on a

computer on the network.

•The program in the control system defined an ethernet interface (much like a

touchpanel on the Cresnet) that pointed to the software.

•For a computer on the network to access•For a computer on the network to access the control system, it would also point to the

CNXGateway software.

•The CNXGateway provides the interpretation from TCP/IP to CIP (Crestron

Internet Protocol).


•Beginning with the second generation of Crestron etherent card (CN-ENET+), the CNXGateway was placed on the card.

•The program in the control system still defines an interface that points to the

software but since the software now resides on the processor the program needs toon the processor, the program needs to

point to the processor’s own etherent card.

•Address 127.0.0.1 can be used in place of the processor address as it is a universal
