Crestron AV2 Control System
      
The AV2 is an economical version of the PRO2, providing all of the features and performance of the PRO2 without the front panel LCD display and pushbuttons. The AV2 also ships standard without Y-Bus expansion slots. As an option, three Y-Bus expansion slots may be added via the CAGE2 3-Card Expansion Cage accessory (sold separately).

The AV2 is perfect for medium to large-scale commercial and residential control applications. Six built-in COM ports, eight IR/Serial ports, eight I/O Versiports, and eight isolated relays provide the essential interface for control of numerous devices including video projectors, plasma displays, switchers, VCRs, DVD players, screens, lifts, and much more. Additional control ports and other interfaces like MIDI and digital audio processing may be added by installing up to three Y-Bus control cards (requires CAGE2 3-Card Expansion Cage accessory; sold separately).

Native to the AV2, secure Ethernet connectivity and full e-Control®2 XPanel support are enabled through the addition of any Crestron Z-Bus Ethernet card. A memory card slot accessible on the rear panel allows for easy expansion of the AV2's internal memory using any Type II Compact Flash memory card up to 4 GB.

The AV2 features a built-in power supply. Power is available through the AV2's Cresnet port to support external Cresnet devices including touchpanels, keypads and expansion modules.
