Troubleshooting
Use the Prodigy Composer software to configure
your Prodigy system (refer to the online help for
detailed information).
The following table provides corrective action for possible trouble
situations. If further assistance is required, please contact a
Crestron customer service representative.
NOTE: The Prodigy Composer software is
available for download from
www.crestron.com/prodigycomposer.
Before a P-CBI can be used, it must first be
acquired by the P-MNETGW gateway that is
connected to a Prodigy system. When prompted by
the Prodigy Network Setup Wizard within Prodigy
Composer to physically put detected devices into
Acquire mode, it is recommended that you start
with the device that is closest to the gateway. As
each device is acquired by the gateway, the device
functions as a repeater to reinforce the network.
