Overview

CR-CS4 – Hardware System Control I/O Centre

The CR-CS4 Hardware System Control I/O Centre gives integrators complete control over a wide range of connected devices. Use the 16 external trigger connections with the traditional twin-wire short method or our specially designed Trigger Buttons (one included, with additional IP-TG01 Trigger Buttons available separately). Each trigger directly activates 1 of 16 associated user defined macro events (out of 32 total) stored within the unit.

Activate all 32 macros through the Web GUI or Telnet. For example, those user defined macros can control remote devices via Ethernet, IR, serial port (RS-232/422/485), relay, or direct voltage allowing for the control of a large array of devices at the push of a button such as projector screens, lighting, etc

A battery backed-up clock allows for detailed event scheduling based on a repeating daily/weekly schedule, or single events. In addition, the integrated IR code learning function allows users to store and re-transmit IR codes from nearly any standard IR remote, making device integration simpler and more efficient.

The CR-CS4 Hardware System Control I/O Centre supports Power over Ethernet (PoE), allowing you to power it directly from a standard PoE+ (802.3at Type 2) network switch without an external power adapter for greater installation flexibility. Install the unit in our RAX-600 Rack Chassis or mount it directly to any flat surface. Control the unit through the Web GUI, Telnet, or external triggers.

  • 16 trigger inputs linked directly to 16 user macros allowing for instant control activation
  • 16 additional macros (32 total) that can be activated via Ethernet, or on a defined schedule
  • 4 power relays to control devices such as projector screens, lighting, etc
  • 4 IR outputs to control devices such as TVs, media players, etc
  • Integrated IR input for IR code learning functionality
  • 2 serial ports for controlling RS-232/422/485 devices
  • 16 variable voltage outputs for controlling low power devices (20mA total) or activating external triggers : Note: Trigger Buttons and Voltage Out ports cannot be used at the same time
  • Battery backed up clock for scheduling events
  • Can optionally be powered via PoE (802.3at Type 2)
  • CR-CS4 is designed to be installed within our RAX-600 6U Rack Chassis or it can be mounted directly onto any flat surface
