CYP CR-CS4 Hardware System Control I/O Centre

CYP CR-CS4 Hardware System Control I/O Centre – IP AV Controller with PoE

The CYP CR-CS4 Hardware System Control I/O Centre is a powerful and flexible control solution designed for AV integrators who need to manage a wide variety of devices from a single unit.

With 16 external trigger connections, the CR-CS4 provides instant activation of 16 associated user-defined macros. Triggers can be activated using a traditional twin-wire short method or with CYP's dedicated Trigger Buttons. One Trigger Button is supplied with the product, with additional buttons available separately (CYP order code IP-TG01).

The unit supports 32 user-defined macro events in total. All 32 macros can be activated through the WebGUI or Telnet, while macros can control connected equipment using Ethernet, IR, RS-232/422/485, relay outputs or direct variable voltage outputs.

A built-in battery-backed clock provides detailed scheduling capabilities, allowing events to be programmed for repeating daily or weekly schedules as well as individual one-off events.

The CR-CS4 also features an integrated IR code learning function, allowing IR commands from virtually any standard IR remote control to be learned, stored and retransmitted.

For flexible installation, the CR-CS4 can be powered via PoE+ (802.3at Type 2) from a compatible network switch, eliminating the need for an external power adapter. It can be installed inside the CYP RAX-600 6U Rack Chassis or mounted directly onto a suitable flat surface.

Macro & Scheduling Control
The CR-CS4 provides 32 programmable macros, offering extensive automation possibilities for AV and building-control applications.

The macros can be activated through:

WebGUI
Telnet
External trigger inputs
Scheduled events
Macros can combine commands for multiple devices and interfaces, allowing complex room-control functions to be performed with a single trigger.
