Good news from our partner Crestron, which recently started shipping its next generation CP3 3-Series Control System®. For users of Crestron’s audio-visual control systems, the new CP3 series features faster processing speeds, more memory, high-efficiency multitasking capabilities, external storage options, built-in BACnet support, and enhanced IP security.
CP3 delivers exponential increases in control system performance for the largest commercial facilities, making it an essential component to any integrated building technology environment. It’s a substantially faster series that simplifies the design, integration, and control of AV, lighting control, HVAC, energy management, BMS and other connected systems. The new system can be used with connected systems in:
commercial buildings
hotels
universities
casinos
command centers
schools
and multi-campus environments.
Crestron calls its CP3 “the future of networked building control, taking integrated building technology to a powerful new level of control functionality.”
The company emphasizes how it utilizes faster processors (10 X faster) than its previous Series 2 processors. CP3 enables real-time multi-tasking to flawlessly run up to 10 independent programs simultaneously. IT-like programming architecture enables integrators to perform system maintenance and expansion in ways not previously possible.
Upgrades can be performed on any individual subsystem – such as AV, lighting control, HVAC, security systems and climate control – without affecting the entire system. Since each control program is independent, a restart of one program has no effect on the others. The result is improved system architecture and virtually no downtime.

Industry magazine Commercial Integrator recently put together a list of what its writers and industry observers saw at the recent InfoComm 2012 trade show as the leading trends seen in the audio-visual solutions industry.
The magazine’s panel of experts found that increased digital signage, better use of touch screens, more interactive content and better designed audio-visual system displays are among the leading trends seen for the audio-visual
solutions industry.
Commercial Integrator wrote: “The battle for touchscreen supremacy (iPad vs. everything else) and all things touch-capacitive, video conferencing technology improvements, LED screens, video walls, and overall product augmentation were other highlights pinpointed by Commercial Integrator editors, InfoComm staff and our integrator guest bloggers. Another trend was the implementation of design as it relates to commercial projects, something we saw both at the booths and in real-world applications at the many hotels on the Las Vegas Strip.”
As business continues to become more connected, Commercial Integrator noted that transferring communications protocols to the networked cloud remains a priority for many networking companies. The magazine writes:
”Manufacturers are planting anything and everything on the network these days – projectors, loudspeakers, power products, lighting, climate, security, you name it. Not only does the network factor streamline systems controls, leading to more browser- and tablet-based support, but the access opens up greater possibilities for integrators to remotely manage projects and proactively diagnose and troubleshoot problems.”
We’re excited about these trends. They pave a path of great opportunities. As the future of communications evolves, so too do the opportunities for better audio-visual solutions for companies, schools, churches and other large organizations with A/V systems needs.
