Installation Guide
Hardware Hookup
Make the necessary connections as called out in the illustration below. Apply power after
all connections have been made. When making connections to the DIN-HUB, use a
Crestron power supply.
CAUTION
: Insufficient power can lead to unpredictable results or damage to the
equipment. Please use the Crestron Power Calculator to help calculate how much
power is needed for the system (www.crestron.com/calculators).
NOTE
: Use Crestron Certifed Wire. Cresnet HP wire cannot be used.
NOTE
: When making connections, strip the ends of the wires approximately 7/16 in
(11 mm). Use care to avoid nicking the conductors. Tighten the connector to 5 in-lb
(0.5 to 0.6 N-m). The wire gauge should be 14 to 26 AWG.

Installation
CAUTION
: This equipment is for indoor use only. Mount in a well-ventilated area. The
ambient temperature must be 32º to 104 ºF (0º to 40 ºC). The relative humidity must be
10% – 90% (noncondensing).
NOTE
: Observe the following points:
• Install and use this product in accordance with appropriate electrical codes and
regulations.
• A licensed electrician should install this product.
NOTE
: Before using the DIN-HUB, ensure the device is using the latest firmware. Check
for the latest firmware for the DIN-HUB at www.crestron.com/firmware. Load the
firmware onto the device using Crestron Toolbox™ software.
The DIN-HUB is designed for installation on a DIN rail. Refer to the following diagram
when installing.
1. Place the top of the DIN-HUB’s rail mount over the top of the DIN rail.
2. Tilt the bottom of the DIN-HUB toward the DIN rail until it snaps into place.
NOTE
: When mounting DIN rail products, use a flat-head screw driver to pull the
DIN rail release tab while snapping the device onto the DIN rail.
To remove the DIN-HUB from the DIN rail, use a small, flat object (i.e., a flat-head
screwdriver) to pull the DIN rail release tab, and tilt the bottom of the DIN-HUB away from
the DIN rail.
NOTE
: Certain third-party DIN cabinets provide space for an informational label
between each DIN rail row. Crestron’s Engraver software (version 4.0 or later) can
generate appropriate labels for all Crestron DIN rail products.
