Crestron Residential Lighting Design Guide

System Design

Hybrid Systems

The most efficient and attractive lighting system designs are a hybrid of centralized processing and distributed dimmers. This provides the reliability of local control along with sophisticated centralized control, and limits the amount of wall clutter

A complete Crestron design is a blend of wireless and wired, distributed and centralized design in which central control intelligence and distributed local dimmers form a reliable whole house lighting control solution.

Large rooms, stairways, and frequently used rooms are often remotely controlled using the astronomical time clock or whole house presets. This level of control requires connection to a central dimming controller. Each room is equipped with a low voltage or wireless keypad for lighting preset selection and/or audio/video integration. All of the dimmers in the system (grouped into the central controller for wiring convenience) communicate with each other through the Crestron control system, providing a complete, integrated solution
