<br />Dedicated Control Subnet
<br />The Crestron Control Subnet is a Gigabit Ethernet network dedicated to
<br />Crestron devices. Via the PRO3’s Control Subnet port, an installer may
<br />simply connect a single touch screen or wireless gateway, or add a
<br />Crestron PoE switch (CEN-SW-POE-5 or CEN-SWPOE-16)[1] to handle
<br />multiple touch screens, gateways, AV components, and other devices.
<br />Auto-configuration of the entire subnet is performed by the PRO3,
<br />discovering each device and assigning IP addresses without any extra
<br />effort from the installer.
<br />A separate LAN port on the PRO3 provides a single-point connection to the
<br />primary LAN, requiring just one IP address for the complete control system.
<br />The LAN port allows full interconnectivity between devices on the local
<br />subnet with other devices, systems, servers, and WAN/Internet connections
<br />outside the local subnet. For sensitive applications that require absolute
<br />security, the entire Control Subnet can be completely hidden from the
<br />primary LAN using Isolation Mode.
<br />Control Apps & XPanel
<br />Years ago, Crestron pioneered the world’s first IP-based control system
<br />unleashing vast new possibilities for controlling, monitoring, and managing
<br />integrated systems over a LAN, WAN, and the Internet. Today, Crestron
<br />offers more ways than ever to control your world the way you want. Using
<br />a computer, smartphone, or tablet device, Crestron lets you control
<br />anything in your home or workplace from anywhere in the world.
<br />Native to every 3-Series control system, Crestron XPanel technology
<br />transforms any laptop or desktop computer into a virtual Crestron touch
<br />screen. Crestron control apps deliver the Crestron touch screen experience
<br />to iPhone®, iPad®, and Android™ devices, letting you safely monitor and
<br />control your entire residence or commercial facility using the one device
<br />that goes with you everywhere.
<br />Crestron Fusion® Cloud
<br />Crestron Fusion Cloud provides an integrated
<br />platform for creating truly smart buildings that save energy, enhance
<br />worker productivity, and prolong the life-span of valuable equipment. As
<br />part of a complete managed network in a corporate enterprise, college
<br />campus, convention center, or any other facility, the PRO3 works integrally
<br />with Crestron Fusion Cloud to enable remote scheduling, monitoring, and
<br />control of rooms and technology from a central help desk. It also enables
<br />organizations to reduce energy consumption by tracking real-time usage
<br />and automating control of lighting, shades, and HVAC.
<br />SNMP Support
<br />Built-in SNMP support enables integration with third-party IT management
<br />software, allowing network administrators to manage and control Crestron
<br />systems on the network in an IT-friendly format.
<br />Cresnet®
<br />Cresnet provides a dependable network wiring solution for Crestron
<br />keypads, lighting controls, shade motors, thermostats, occupancy sensors,
<br />and other devices that don’t require the higher speed of Ethernet. The
<br />Cresnet bus offers easy wiring and configuration, carrying bidirectional
<br />communication and 24VDC power to each device over a simple 4-conductor
<br />cable. To assist with troubleshooting, the PRO3 includes our patent-pending
<br />Network Analyzer which continuously monitors the integrity of the Cresnet
<br />network for wiring faults, marginal performance, and other errors.
<br />Onboard Control Ports
<br />In addition to Ethernet, the PRO3 includes six bidirectional COM ports and
<br />eight IR ports to interface directly with all of your centralized AV sources,
<br />video displays, and other devices. Eight programmable relay ports are
<br />included for controlling projection screens, lifts, power controllers, and
<br />other contact-closure actuated equipment. Eight “Versiport” I/O ports
<br />enable the integration of power sensors, motion detectors, door switches,
<br />alarms, or anything else that provides a dry contact closure, low-voltage
<br />logic, or 0-10 Volt DC signal.
<br />Control Card Expansion Slots
<br />Additional control ports can be added to the PRO3 using 3-Series Control
<br />Cards [1]. The PRO3 provides three control card expansion slots on its rear
<br />panel, affording great expansion capability without requiring any additional
<br />rack space.
<br />Front Panel Color LCD Display
<br />The PRO3’s front panel includes a color LCD display to enable extensive
<br />setup and diagnostics without having to connect a computer.
<br />BACnet™/IP
<br />Native support for the BACnet/IP communication
<br />protocol provides a direct interface to third-party building management
<br />systems over Ethernet, simplifying integration with HVAC, security, fire &
<br />life safety, voice & data, lighting, shades, and other systems. Using
<br />BACnet/IP, each system runs independently with the ability to communicate
<br />together on one platform for a truly smart building.[2]
