DigitalMedia™ Room Controller, CAT Crestron DM-RMC-100
Keyboard/Mouse Extender
When connected to a DM series switcher or DM-TX-100 transmitter
(both sold separately), the DM-RMC-100 functions as a keyboard/mouse
extender, allowing a USB HID (Human Interface Device) compliant
keyboard and/or mouse to be connected at the display location, and used
to control a computer or other host device located at the central
equipment rack or some other remote location.
HID devices include mice, keyboards, trackballs and composite devices
(e.g. combination keyboard/trackball devices). These devices do not
require driver installation on most common operating systems (Windows
and Mac OS).
Embedded Device Control
The primary objective of every Crestron system is to enable precisely the
control desired for a seamless user experience. The DM-RMC-100
includes built-in RS-232, IR, and Ethernet control ports to allow
programmable control of the display device connected to it. It can also
provide an alternative to these conventional control methods by
harnessing the CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) signal embedded in
HDMI. Through its connection to the control system, the
DM-RMC-100 provides a gateway for controlling the display device
right through the HDMI connection, potentially eliminating the need for
any dedicated control wires or IR probes.
Low-Profile Installation
The DM-RMC-100 mounts to a standard 2-gang, 4" square, or UK
electrical box, and sticks out only one inch from the wall surface.
Connections to the display are all positioned along the bottom edge of the
receiver, allowing cables to be dressed neatly without obstruction. The
DM and LAN connection are made behind the unit within the electrical
box. An array of indicators on the front of the DM-RMC-100 provide for
easy setup and troubleshooting, verifying the status of connections and
signal activity at a glance.
