3-Series® Control Systems
Introduction
Crestron® 3-Series Control System® automated processors unify disparate
technologies in buildings so they can communicate and work together
intelligently, which lowers costs and boosts efficiency. Their unique distributed
architecture enables multitasking essential to a complete building control
solution. Up to 10 programs can operate independently and simultaneously while
rapidly communicating with each other. Code is organized into a few smaller
programs rather than one large one, so programming, troubleshooting, and
uploading are much faster and easier.
3-Series® control systems offer a wide range of features, including:
•
Scalable hardware that supports a broad range of space types and
architectures
•
One system running multiple programs
•
SNMP and BACnet/IP support to seamlessly communicate and integrate
with IT, HVAC, BMS, and security systems
•
Crestron XiO Cloud™ service connected
•
Full network security protocols, including 802.1X, AES, and
Active Directory® service
