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 PRO4 provides a modular programming architecture that allows the PRO4 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.
Dedicated Control Subnet
The Crestron Control Subnet is a Gigabit Ethernet network dedicated to Crestron devices. Via
the Control Subnet ports, an installer can connect up to four touch screens or wireless gateways
or can add Crestron PoE switches (CEN-SW-POE-5 or CEN-SWPOE-16) to handle multiple
touch screens, gateways, AV components, and other devices. Each port also supports PoE+ using
the optional PW-5430DUS power supply. Automatic configuration of the entire subnet is
performed by the PRO4, discovering each device and assigning IP addresses without any extra
effort from the installer.

A separate LAN port provides a single-point connection to the local network, requiring only one
IP address for the entire control system. The LAN port allows for interconnectivity between
devices on the local subnet and other devices, systems, servers, and WAN/internet connections
outside the local subnet. For sensitive applications that require heightened security, the entire
Control Subnet can be isolated completely from the local network.
Onboard Control Ports
Through a full complement of onboard control ports, the PRO4 can be integrated with audio,
video, lighting, motorized shades, thermostats, door locks, sensors, security systems, and other
equipment.
