    Hi all
    We are pretty new with CBus2 and we would appreciate some help on how to connect more than 2 Crestron wireless LCD devices to a 5 network CBus implementation, including local and remote areas.

    We know how the physical interface works but we would like to understand where can we get the software?

    Thks a lot

    No so much help from the Clipsal Team...

    Thanks a lot Jako for the reply.
    I?ve got all the Clipsal software available from the download area of the Clipsal site, and more than 50K US in hardware & soft bought here in Argentina to the Clipsal Reps, but up today not a clear response if there is some interface between CBus and Crestron.

    Also, for the wireless stuff, where are the manuals ???

    Thks

    Correct me if I am wrong here but

    I sounds like you expected there to be an existing product that would allow the interface to happen. This, obviously is not always the case and hence the need for research into these products before outlaying thousands of dollars.

    I dont know if something exists and if it doesn't then you only have yourself to blame for not being able to get them together. If there is then that is great (and I hope that is the case).

    Good luck with the project

    I believe that Crestron systems can be interfaced to C-Bus.

    I think you need to get whatever the magic thingies are from Crestron. Exactly what part of Crestron, when, where, or how: I don't know.

    I know some of the Crestron wired screens have been hooked up to C-Bus, so I'm making a big assumption here that the wireless ones can be hooked up as well.

    I think you need to be talking to Crestron technical support.

    c-bus to crestron

    There is a module on the crestron site thats talks to c-bus.
    Its is not to good but works.
    it doesn't go through networks so you will need a pci on each network.
    It is a good idea to pull there module apart and modify it as we have done.
    Works very well just like the c-touch screens
