2-Series Processor

Built upon the reliable Crestron 2-Series control engine, the DIN-AP2 is extensively programmable using the suite of powerful Crestron development software and vast database of drivers and software modules. The DIN-AP2 works seamlessly with the entire line of Crestron lighting dimmers and shade controls, keypads and touchpanels, thermostats, wireless gateways, and expansion modules.

System Integration

The DIN-AP2 provides for the integration of non-Crestron devices and subsystems through a host of control interfaces. Four isolated relays and eight Versiport I/O ports are built in to accommodate all kinds of sensors, contactors, door strikes, and other low voltage controls. Two bidirectional RS-232 COM ports and four IR/serial ports allow for the integration of everything from simple shade controllers to advanced security systems.

Cresnet®

Cresnet is the communications backbone for Crestron lighting modules, wall box dimmers and shade controllers. The DIN-AP2 includes a pair of Cresnet master ports (paralleled) capable of supporting approximately 20 typical devices. Larger systems with more than 20 devices can be handled by adding the DIN-HUB Cresnet Distribution Hub. Connectivity for multiple homeruns can be facilitated using one or more DIN-BLOCK Cresnet Distribution Blocks. Additionally, at least one DIN-PWS50 Cresnet Power Supply is required to power the DIN-AP2 and any connected Cresnet devices.

Memory Expansion

A memory card slot allows for easy expansion of the DIN- AP2 internal memory using an MMC-compatible memory card up to 2 GB.

Ethernet and e-Control®2

Built-in 10/100 Ethernet facilitates secure high speed network connectivity, enabling extensive capabilities for remote system maintenance and control, and providing an interface to other Crestron control systems. Native features include a built-in email client to report system troubles and other functions to the owner or service company via instant email notification. An onboard Web server provides the foundation for the exclusive Crestron e-Control 2 XPanel technology, providing secure IP-based remote control.

RoomView® and SNMP

For large facilities utilizing multiple DIN-AP2s and other control systems, exclusive Crestron RoomView Help Desk software delivers a comprehensive solution for remote monitoring and asset management. Also, built-in SNMP support enables similar capability using third-party network management software, allowing full control and monitoring from the IT Help Desk or NOC in a format that's familiar to IT personnel.

D3 Pro™ Software

Crestron D3 Pro software eliminates the need for custom programming, providing a complete design, development, and documentation solution for the lighting professional.
