CIP

CIP is a JavaScript module that allows Command Fusion to communicate like a Crestron touchpanel. The goal is to allow Command Fusion to connect and communicate with a Crestron processor via an XPanel ethernet device module on the CIP port, as opposed to user modules that are limited to a less robust TCP socket system.

This effectively eliminates issues related to TCP server socket timing, unique ports, and other deeper issues related to user module sockets on Crestron. This also has dramatically lowered overhead in the Crestron system compared the iViewer server module, allowing more iViewer devices to be implemented on a single processor. This maintains compatibility with both 2 and 3 Series systems.

The module is also able to make multiple connections to multiple Crestron Control systems simultaneously. Each connection can use different IP ID's. Each has independent connection feedback joins, as well as independent join ranges which will be association with that connection. This is achieved completely through Global Token settings and System/Feedback configurations, no editing of JavaScript should be necessary.
