4-Series Control Engine
4-Series control systems come equipped with an upgraded multicore CPU, delivering a sizable
speed and performance increase compared to all Crestron 3-Series® control processors. The
improved performance allows 4-Series control systems to handle the increasing demands of an
advanced automated system. Crestron 4-Series delivers a dynamic and secure control system
platform capable of managing a room full of disparate technologies.
Reliable networking and IP control afford seamless integration with other systems and devices,
with add-on control capability using Crestron touch screens, wireless remotes, and mobile device
apps, as well as remote management through Crestron Fusion® software and the XiOCloud®
service.
Modular Programming Architecture
The DIN-AP4 provides a modular programming architecture that allows the DIN-AP4 to run up
to ten programs simultaneously. Programmers can develop and run independent, device-specific
programs, enabling each program to be optimized for a specific function and allowing for
changes to be made to one program without affecting the whole system.
Onboard Control Ports
Through a full complement of onboard control ports, the DIN-AP4 can be integrated with audio,
video, lighting, motorized shades, thermostats, door locks, sensors, security systems, and other
equipment.
l
Ethernet provides an interface for connecting to the building network and controlling
Crestron AV switchers, audio processors, power controllers, and other IP controllable
equipment.
l
Cresnet® network connectivity provides support for Crestron lighting dimmers, motorized
shades, sensors, thermostats, keypads, and more.
l
Onboard RS-232, IR/serial, relay, and Versiport I/O control ports enable direct integration
with all types of third-party equipment.
Cresnet Network
Cresnet provides a dependable network wiring solution with simple configuration, carrying
bidirectional communication and 24VDC power to each connected device over a 4-conductor
cable. The DIN-AP4 includes a pair of Cresnet master ports (paralleled) capable of supporting
approximately 20 standard devices. Larger systems with more than 20 devices are supported by
adding a DIN-HUB Cresnet distribution hub or a DIN-CENCN-2 Ethernet to Cresnet bridge.
Connectivity for multiple wiring runs is facilitated using one or more DIN-BLOCK Cresnet
distribution blocks.
