{"product_id":"av-controller-c2g50348","title":"AV Controller","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe C2G50348 AV Controller is a full-featured in-wall solution designed for centralized control of audio\/video equipment in classrooms and conference rooms. This active device manages up to two serial devices, such as a projector or display, via dual DB9 RS-232 and RS-485 ports. It can also trigger 12V DC devices, including projector screens or blinds, and manage IR devices like Blu-ray players or document cameras. The controller features eight backlit buttons that can be programmed to send simultaneous bi-directional infrared, RS232, or RS485 commands. For installation, it uses a single gang wall box style plate for easy mounting in standard electrical boxes. Installers can daisy chain up to 99 controllers to scale large deployments and use the software interface (GUI), RS232, RS485, or the IR port for multiple programming modes. The unit also includes a multi-port controller interface adapter to secure cable connections and minimize failure points.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEight backlit buttons with customizable multi-command options\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual DB9 RS-232 and RS-485 ports supporting up to five devices\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDaisy chain capability for up to 99 controllers in a single deployment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports 12V DC triggering for screens and blinds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle gang wall plate style for standard electrical box mounting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOn-board timing program for simplified time-based programming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill the C2G50348 control my projector and screen?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, it can control up to two serial devices via RS-232\/RS-485 and can trigger 12V DC devices like projector screens or blinds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat mounting requirements are needed for installation?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe unit uses a single gang wall box style wall plate designed for installation into standard single gang electrical mounting boxes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan I use this with a dry contact trigger screen?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eScreens using a dry contact trigger require an external adapter to function with this controller; please contact the manufacturer of your screen for compatible adapter options.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow do I program the commands for third-party devices?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou can program the controller using the software interface (GUI), through the RS232 port, the RS485 port, or the infrared (IR) port.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow many controllers can be connected together?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe system allows for daisy-chaining up to 99 controllers for large-scale classroom or conference room deployments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eSpecifications are supplied by the manufacturer.
