PAC2 Lighting Control Processor
The PAC2 enables efficient control of lighting and other systems such as HVAC and security, and has been specifically designed for the Crestron automation enclosure and the Crestron lighting system (although other Crestron processors can also be used).
The PAC2 occupies one module space in
NOTE: Crestron recommends that the control processor be mounted within a separate CAEN enclosure to create a simplified low voltage wiring center.

The unique Crestron dual bus system, with its high speed I/O bus architecture, provides blazing fast throughput, system wide. The two 40Mb/s
The PAC2 also provides true secure network communications, which is required for today's corporate networks, automated residence systems, and the Internet. The Dual Port 10/100BaseT Ethernet card
Backup and Override
The PAC2 provides external connections for both a back- up processor and emergency override closure signals.
In the absence of Cresnet, a signal is generated to switch power and communication of the Cresnet system to the
The Backup Net Input connector allows a backup control system to automatically take control of the Cresnet network in the unlikely event of an internal processor failure. The exclusive,
