Cresnet
Cresnet provides a dependable network wiring solution for Crestron keypads,
lighting controls, thermostats, and other devices that don’t require the higher speed
of Ethernet. The Cresnet bus offers easy wiring and configuration, carrying
bidirectional communication and 24 Vdc power to each device over a simple
4-conductor cable. To assist with troubleshooting, the AV3 and PRO3 include our
patent pending Network Analyzer, which continuously monitors the integrity of the
Cresnet network for wiring faults, marginal performance, and other errors.
Onboard Control Ports
In addition to Ethernet, the AV3 and PRO3 include six bidirectional COM ports and
eight IR ports to interface directly with centralized AV sources, video displays, and
other devices. Eight programmable relay ports are included for controlling window
shades, projection screens, lifts, power controllers, and other contact closure actuated
equipment. Eight “Versiport” I/O ports enable the integration of occupancy sensors,
power sensors, door switches, or anything else that provides a dry contact closure,
low voltage logic, or 0-10 volt dc signal.
Control Card Expansion Slots (PRO3 only)
Additional control ports can be added to the PRO3 using 3-Series Control Cards.

additional rack space.
Front Panel Color LCD Display (PRO3 only)
The PRO3’s front panel includes a color LCD display to enable extensive setup and
diagnostics without having to connect a computer.
BACnet/IP
Native support for the BACnet/IP communication protocol provides a direct
interface to third-party building management systems over Ethernet, simplifying
integration with HVAC, security, fire & life safety, voice & data, lighting, shades,
and other systems. Using BACnet/IP, each system runs independently with the
ability to communicate together on one platform for a truly smart building.
