Crestron launches new CP3 control system

Crestron has announced the availability of the new series control system 3 CP3, a new unit that provides a powerful platform that simplifies design, AV integration and control, lightning, air conditioning, energy management, BMS and all other systems connected in a building home automation system.

Crestron has brought to market the new generation of its series control system 3 CP3, developed by Core 3 OS, offering a powerful platform that simplifies design, AV integration and control, lightning, air conditioning, energy management, BMS and all other connected systems in commercial buildings, universities, schools, homes and multi-campus environments.

With higher processing speed, more memory, High-efficiency multitasking capabilities, external storage options, Integrated BACnet support and enhanced IP security, CP3 delivers exponential increases in control system performance for large commercial installations, making it an essential component for any integrated building technology environment. At an affordable price, the CP3 is very versatile, making it ideal for advanced home control applications.

Robin van Meeuwen, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at Crestron International, has pointed: “The CP3 is more than just a new control system, It is the future of integrated network control in buildings and the home. The new systems in the series 3 They are the backbone of the most powerful control network platform available today. Being up to 10 times faster than series processors 2, The CP3 brings built-in technology to build a powerful new level of control functionality.. ”

Multi-task management

Compact and rack-mountable, The CP3 allows real-time multi-tasking to seamlessly manage up to 10 independent programs at the same time. A programming architecture like IT allows integrators to perform system maintenance and expansion in ways not previously possible.. Updates can be performed on any individual subsystem - such as AV, lighting control, HVAC, security and temperature control systems- without affecting the entire system. Since each control program is independent, restarting one program has no effect on the others. The result is better system architecture and almost no downtime..

Built-in BACnet/IP support allows integration with building management systems and other BACnet devices. All systems can run independently and communicate with each other on the same high-powered Crestron platform, creating a truly smart building. With series control systems 3 by Crestron, integrated lighting control, of the blinds, of the HVAC, part OF, del BMS, of security, IT and other connected systems just got faster, simpler and much more efficient.

Integrated SNMP support allows integration with third-party network management software, enabling control and monitoring in a format that is familiar to IT staff. Using Fusion RV Remote Asset Management Software, staff can do remote programming, Monitoring and controlling rooms and technology from a central helpdesk, leading to a significant increase in productivity.

Connection with mobile devices

As a fully integrated building technology platform, All updates can be done remotely over IP with enhanced secure Ethernet connectivity to ensure network security across the enterprise. Easy connection to CP3 via iPhone mobile devices, iPad and Android and computers provide users with convenient and reliable mobile control of a building or home from anywhere in the world. Core technology 3 Integrated XPanel UI gives facility managers and owners virtual touchscreen control through any web browser running on any Mac or PC.

Designed to save energy, The CP3 consumes little power in a harsh environment. 15 environmentally friendly watts. Includes a PW-2420RU power supply. The USB port 2.0 and MMC memory card slot allow users to add plenty of external storage on the fly using SD cards and USB sticks.

The CP3 is the first release in a family of advanced high-performance series control systems 3 by Crestron, that will replace the series processors 2. It is planned to launch new control systems of the series 3 next year. “The CP3 and the Core platform 3 OS is the new center of network infrastructure and control of integrated building and integrated home technology”, ha agregado Van Meeuwen.
