October 23, 2008

Perfect for both new and retrofit applications, the wireless iLux™ CLS-C6MRF – part of the CRESTRON GREEN LIGHT™ family of products – is an integrated lighting system with a built-in motion detector operating on Crestron infiNET™ mesh network technology. Designed for wall mount installation, the CLS-C6MRF controls six channels of dimming and six groups of shades, expandable to 54 each. Large “ON” and “OFF” buttons and six two-level rocker buttons enable the recall of up to 15 scenes for lighting and shades, and corresponding 7-segment LED bar graphs offer easy visualization of lighting levels in each zone. The infiNET iLux operates both as a stand-alone control system or integrates seamlessly into a full Crestron control environment without the need for a control wire. iLux is a complete, integrated lighting system ideal for in boardrooms, auditoriums, home theaters; anywhere that versatile and cost-effective control of lighting and shades is required. Up to 16 Crestron keypads may connect directly to an iLux, and touchpanels and AV control may be added by connecting to an external Crestron control system. The Crestron reputation for innovation and reliability, combined with high-quality integrated dimming, native shade control, and extensive customization and integration ability make iLux the ideal choice for all types of room lighting and shade control applications. Based on Crestron infiNET™ wireless mesh network technology, the CLS- C6MRF utilizes an embedded 2.4 GHz RF wireless network, providing the most stable, reliable communications over larger areas without adding additional gateways. Built into each infiNET control device is an RF transceiver chip, and each transceiver, or "node", can act as a repeater, supporting multiple redundant signal paths within a mesh network topology.
