  1. Industry Leader in Broadband Integration HDTV Tuning & Control over COAX

  2. Founded by Scott Hetzler in 1994, CR began with a vision for creating solutions that easily integrate with leading control systems such as AMX, Crestron, and other control systems. Prior to founding CR, Scott was the leading designer for many award-winning AMX control products. Today's CR remains tightly focused on creating solutions for systems integrators, with a core team of well-known control industry experts.

  3. Integration – Custom Control • Full System Control • ASCII 2-way RS-232/IP/USB Control 232-ATSC+1 HDTVTuner • Full Video Options • Analog, Digital Cable, Digital Off-Air Channels • Simulcast HDMI, RGB/Component, and video outputs • Front-panel or RS-232/Ethernet switch between • RGB and Component • Full Audio Options • Simulcast HDMI, Optical, Coax and Stereo Audio outputs • Dolby 5.1, PCM or variable PCM HDMI Component/RGB • Integrator-Preferred Solution • 5thgeneration integration HDTV tuner • Control modules by AMX, Crestron, and RTI • Control up to 9 Tuners from one RS 232 Port • Thousands in place across the country • Drag and Drop updates via USB • Onboard Web control page RS-232/IP Control System

  4. Why RF? Why integrate HD media and control over coax? • Because it’s there – Re-use and Recycle • Earn LEED/STEP Innovation Points for control of displays What about new construction? • Cost - RF is a cost-effective HD content delivery system • Bandwidth – 5 times greater than IP • Distance – measured in miles, not feet • Simplicity – No hubs, Cat 5 receivers, transmitters or HD video router – just wire, all core components at one central Head End • Reliability – CR coax control systems in place for over 16 years

  5. Actual Installation – Energy Savings • The Contemporary Research ICE-HE controls 48 of the common area ETV monitors across the campus.  • Originally these monitors were left on 24 hours a day, 7 days a week consuming 79,500 kW hours of energy annually.  • With the new control system the monitors are powered only during the working day using a standard 9/80 work schedule • This results in saving55,215 kW hours of energy a year and extending the life of the displaysby approximately 52% • The system communicates over the same CATV cable that transports the multimedia channels and can be used to control the receiver’s power, channel, and volume. • Multiple zones have been created including cafeterias, break rooms, hallway monitors that could be controlled separately.

  6. Distribution - Bandwidth Ethernet 1 Gbps bandwidth over copper. Bandwidth for media shared with other IP resources, potentially bogging down the network IP 1 Gbps Digital RF Coax 5.2 Gbps bandwidth for 135 HDTV cable channels (38.3 Mbps x 135) Each channel can carry two full HDTV (19.4 Mbps) channels or mix of HD/SD channels Media distribution not shared with data applications RF 5.2 Gbps New Construction? Run both for structured wiring. Deliver the best of both, and balance content delivery to suit the application. Digital TV is IPTV., just without the mess. (

  8. Integrate Control over RF Display Express Software sends commands iPad, iPhone, browsers access system over Web IC HeadEnd converts commands to RF control channel • Combine display control over the same RF cable • Display Express software or AMX/Crestron system • Head End converts data to data channel • Data channel combines' with other channels • Control over network via iPad, iPhone, PCs

  9. RF Control– Control Channel Control Insertion Control Channel inserted between 4 and 5 ] Channel 3 – 61.25 6 MHz ] Channel 4 – 67.25 6 MHz ] iC-Net 74.7 200 KHz 4 MHz ] Channel 5 – 77.25 6 MHz ] Channel 6 – 83.25 6 MHz

  10. Integration – RF Control Display Controllers • ICC1-232 • RS-232 Control • Control codes pre-set from order • Update new codes later over RF or RS-232 RS-232 RF • ICC1-IR • IR Control • Controller has onboard library of codes • Pre-set when shipped • Select new code from Display Express • Update new codes over RF IR RF

  11. Integration – RF Control ICC2-ATSC+ Display Controller • Easy Integration • RS-232 Control, HDTV Tuner • Connect controller to RF • Set control address on front panel • Easy Configuration • Control codes pre-set from order • Download new codes later over RF • Scan for channels RS-232 HDMI

  12. RF Control– Display Express • Create display control Presets

  13. RF Control– Display Express • Link Presets to a schedule

  14. Display Express Web Control

  15. Display Express – Preset Control Tablet Smart Phone

  16. Display Express – TV Control

  17. Originate Channels • Create a mix of in-house cable channels from sat/cable boxes, digital signage players, HD-SDI studio feeds, IPTV, off-air tuners, and other media sources. • Combine into a facility-wide RF feed.

  18. Digital Signage - IP • IP digital signage is addition • Each display needs a player • But what if all players are showing the same message?

  19. Digital Signage - RF • RF digital signage is multiplication • One player feeds an HDTV channel • TVs simply tune in Scaler Modulator HD Signage Channel

  20. QMOD Modulators QMOD Shared Values • Pro-Quality HD encoding • QAM HD Channel • 9-29 dBmV output • Easy text menu setup • Compact 2 in 1 RU case • Fast – full on in 3 seconds • HD Component input • Video/EAS input • Purpose-built inputs with auto synchronization of inbound resolution • HD-SDI • Scaled RGBHD
