LIGHTING CONTROL

Lighting sets the perfect scene and creates the desired ambience for any occasion. Whether it's movie night, an intimate dinner for two, a business party or a quiet Sunday brunch reading the newspaper, lighting establishes the right mood. Traveling out of town or working late? The lights can execute pre-programmed scenes to simulate established lifestyle patterns. Dimmers can adjust internal lighting according to natural light levels in the home or incrementally over a pre-determined time period.

CLIMATE CONTROL

No need to get up or even be home to adjust climate controls, you can control multiple zones from one location and easily pre-set temperature set points. Keep your home at a more energy efficient temperature while you're out, and programmed to automatically adjust to more comfortable levels by the time you get home. Getting home early? Use your PDA or PC to control the HVAC remotely, even monitor the wine cellar or greenhouse atrium temperatures.

AUDIO DISTRIBUTION

Enjoy music throughout the entire home or in just the room you choose with Total Home Technology distributed audio. Experience a movie with digital surround sound. Listen to your jazz CDs while you read in the den while the kids play video games in the media room and your spouse listens to the radio on the terrace. Control the music of your life from any room in the house – no need to walk to the stereo to choose a component, select a CD, change tracks or adjust volume. Relax. You deserve it.

HOME THEATER

With a single touch of the controller the lights dim, the shades close, the screen opens, the temperature adjusts, the AV components turn on, the inputs are selected, the volume is set and the DVD server begins to play your movie. Complete control right from your comfortable seat.

SECURITY & INTERCOMS

Monitor the front door or gate; watch the kids by the swimming pool; or check on the baby napping in the nursery. You can control security cameras and watch what's going on around the house right from your color touchpanel.

Crestron audio and video intercom solutions provide for the ultimate integration of whole-house AV, video security and voice communications. While listening to your favorite music or watching a DVD in the home theater, you'll know the instant someone rings the doorbell or enters the driveway as the audio is gently muted, the camera picture appears on the touchpanel or television, and you're able to speak with the visitor and grant access to your home at the simplest press of a button.
