Crestron PRO 2 - Professional Controller Processor

Description: Crestron 2-Series Control Systems are the brain of a complete integrated AV or automation solution. Every audio, video, and environmental element of the home, boardroom, classroom, or command center becomes integrated and accessible through the control system. Crestron 2-Series control systems are unmatched for power, performance and scalability, providing the ideal choice for today's demanding control applications. The flagship PRO2 is designed for medium to large-scale commercial and residential control applications. Six built-in COM ports, eight IR/Serial ports, eight I/O Versiports, eight isolated relays, and optional Ethernet provide the essential interface for control of numerous devices including video projectors, plasma displays, switchers, DVD players, screens, lifts, and much more. The PRO2 features a built-in power supply, with power available to support external Cresnet devices including touchpanels, keypads and expansion modules. 2-Series Engine At the heart of the PRO2 is the powerful 32-bit Freescale ColdFire processor. Crestron's exclusive enhanced real-time operating system makes the PRO2 the fastest, most reliable control system available. Dual Bus Architecture The PRO2's unique dual-bus architecture affords ultra fast communications. The 40Mbps Y-Bus provides a high-speed backplane for IR, serial, and other integrated control ports. Additional control ports and interfaces like MIDI and digital audio processing may be added by installing up to three Y-Bus control cards. At a blazing 300Mbps, the Z-Bus supports Fast Ethernet with future support for other emerging technologies. Cresnet Cresnet is the communications backbone for many Crestron touchpanels, keypads, lighting controls, and other devices. The Cresnet bus is a simple, yet flexible 4-wire network that provides rock-solid bidirectional communication and power for up to 252 Cresnet devices. Cresnet Slave Mode Selectable Cresnet Slave Mode enables the PRO2 to be configured as a Cresnet slave device, effectively transforming it into a Cresnet expansion module. Such flexibility can offer a cost-effective solution for system expansion, providing a host of additional control ports in a single module. Ethernet Crestron pioneered the IP-based control system to harness the vast possibilities of Ethernet and the Internet for remote control, monitoring, programming, and diagnostics, and the PRO2 is designed to deliver the world's most advanced IP control solution. A choice of single or dual port Ethernet cards enables a full-duplex 10/100 Ethernet connection with built-in Web server and email client, and support for both static and dynamic IP addressing. e-Control2 Crestron's award-winning e-Control 2 XPanel solutions offer the most flexible range of IP control possibilities available. Using a Windows computer or CE/PocketPC PDA device, e-Control 2 provides an amazing control GUI that looks and behaves just like a Crestron Isys touchpanel. RoomView Every Ethernet-enabled 2-Series control system works directly with Crestron's exclusive RoomView Help Desk software for the industry's most comprehensive facility-wide asset management solution. SNMP Built-in SNMP support enables network management of Crestron control systems using third-party SNMP software. As an alternate or supplement to RoomView, SNMP allows full control and monitoring from the IT Help Desk or NOC in a format that's familiar to IT personnel. SSL All Ethernet-enabled 2-Series control systems support SSL (Secure Sockets Layer), the industry standard for protecting sensitive network communications. NAT The PRO2's onboard NAT (Network Address Translator) acts as a firewall and router to facilitate the configuration of a private control LAN with a single-point connection to the client's LAN (Dual-port Ethernet card required). Memory Expansion A memory card slot accessible on the rear panel allows for easy expansion of the PRO2's internal memory using any Type II Compact Flash memory card up to 2 GB. Front Panel Control The PRO2 includes a programmable front control panel with LCD display and control port status indicators. The PRO2's front panel serves as a ready user interface for system configuration and diagnostics, and can also be custom programmed to enable menu-driven control capability.
