Crestron professional control systems
MPC-M10 media presentation controller
Crestron MPC is a family of 2-Series control systems designed for installation in
a wall or podium, delivering the industry's best multimedia room control technology
in a convenient, space-saving design. Perfect for classrooms, meeting rooms, lecture
halls, and training facilities, the MPC-M10 provides a fully-programmable user interface
featuring an attractive and intuitive layout of pushbuttons with customisable backlit
labelling, volume control, and wireless remote capability.
Available in white or black, the MPC-M10 is constructed to handle the rigours of
everyday use in a corporate or educational environment. An assortment of programmable
control ports provides connectivity for audio, video, and lighting equipment. The
onboard e-Control® Web server provides for complete integration as part of a facility-wide
managed control network.
Control...Simplified
The MPC-M10 is engineered to be easy to integrate and use, yet versatile enough to
suit each application perfectly. Its 10 programmable "hard key" buttons can be freely
programmed for system power, input source selection, transport control, lighting
presets, and any other functions. Custom backlit labelling of the buttons is facilitated
using an assortment of pre-printed labels or Crestron Engraver software. Adjusting
audio volume and other parameters is enabled using the continuous-turn control knob
and LED bar graph.
Configuring a complete media presentation control solution is simplified using Crestron
SystemBuilder™ software, allowing limitless programmability from the award-winning
platform that's familiar to every Crestron dealer. The MPC Wizard included in SystemBuilder
enables setup of a full-featured presentation system complete with lighting control
and RoomView® remote management without requiring any programming. Uploading and
updating a facility full of MPC systems is managed easily over the network, or individually
via the front panel USB port.
Wireless Remote
A range of options is available for adding wireless remote control to the MPC system.
Its built-in IR receiver allows use of any Crestron IR wireless touch panel or handheld
remote without requiring a separate receiver or gateway. For greater range and freedom
of movement, MPC also supports Crestron's full line of RF wireless and WiFi based
products.
Wired Expansion
Adding a second control panel or just adding a few more buttons is easy using the
MP-B10 and MP-B20 Media Presentation Button Panels. Of course, with Cresnet® and
Ethernet built-in, the MPC-M10 works seamlessly with Crestron's entire line of keypads
and touch panels, lighting dimmers and shade controllers, signal processors and switchers,
and much more.
Built-in Control Ports
Through its onboard control ports, the MPC-M10 interfaces directly with the video
display or projector, DVD player or TV receiver, projection screen, lift, occupancy
sensor, and other devices in the room. In addition to Cresnet and high-speed Ethernet,
there is a bidirectional RS-232 COM port, an IR/serial port, two relays, and four
input ports right on the rear panel.
Audio and Video Control
The MPC-M10 is ideal for small room systems utilizing a single
display device with computers and other sources connected directly to it. But like
any 2-Series control system, MPC is fully scalable to suit larger applications with
several program sources, microphones, or even multiple displays. Simply add a C2N-VEQ4
module to enable 4 channels of audio volume and EQ control. Or, use any of Crestron's
QuickMedia® wall plate and FlipTop interfaces, switchers, and receivers for a total
signal routing, processing, and amplification solution.
Ethernet and e-Control®2
Built-in 10/100 Ethernet facilitates secure high-speed network
connectivity, enabling extensive capabilities for remote system maintenance and control,
and providing an interface to other Crestron control systems. The onboard Web server
provides the foundation for Crestron's exclusive e-Control 2 Xpanel technology, providing
secure IP-based remote control. SSL encryption prevents hackers from breaching the
system and accessing its controls.
RoomView® and SNMP
The MPC-M10 communicates directly with Crestron's exclusive RoomView
help desk software, the industry's most comprehensive facility-wide solution for
remote monitoring and asset management. Built-in SNMP support also enables integration
with third-party network management software, allowing full control and monitoring
from the IT Help Desk or NOC in a format that's familiar to IT personnel.
Cresnet® Slave Mode
Selectable Cresnet Slave Mode enables the MPC-M10 to become a
Cresnet keypad controller and expansion module as part of a larger Crestron system,
providing a user-interface with local control ports built in for interfacing to nearby
devices.
Ambient Light Sensor
The MPC-M10's built-in light sensor has a range of uses, from
controlling its own backlight intensity, to providing ambient lighting level data
to a central building management system.
