iMedia Wall Plate Control Panel Crestron IM-WCVP-M
The iMedia Transport
The iMedia transport utilizes a single CAT5e* type cable to transmit
computer RGB, video, and stereo audio signals to a single projector or
plasma display. A typical XGA signal (1024 X 768 pixels at 60Hz) can
be transmitted up to 84 feet using iMedia, while higher resolutions up to
1600 x 1200 can be handled over shorter distances. Audio is transmitted
digitally at 20-bit, 48 kHz resolution. Control and power signals are also
contained on the same wire, eliminating the need for separate control or
power cables.
* For optimum performance, Crestron strongly recommends using CRESCAT-IM
cable, available from Crestron. Other high-quality/low skew (15 ns per 100 m
maximum) CAT5e/CAT6 wiring may also be used with varying performance.
2-Piece Wall Plate Multimedia Interface
The IM-WCCV-S-M is an iMedia (IM) transmitter featuring separate
wall plates for interface and control. The interface panel (IM-WCVI-M)
is designed to install in a standard 2-gang electrical box, providing video,
RGB, and stereo audio inputs for connection to the output of a computer
or AV source. The control panel (IM-WCVP-M) is a separate 1-gang
wall plate, which may be installed up to 40 feet from the interface panel.
Installing wiring for the IM-WCCV-S-M is extremely simple using
CRESCAT-IM cable. Up to three IM-WCCV-S-Ms, or other IM
transmitters, may be installed as part of a complete system to provide
multiple input locations within the room.
Foolproof Operation
Every iMedia system is easy and intuitive to use. A simple press of the
VIDEO or PC buttons on the control panel selects the appropriate input,
turns on the projector (or plasma, etc.), lowers the screen or lift, and
routes all the signals where they need to go. The volume control affords
easy adjustment of the audio level and the microphone level (when
connected to IM-RXV1-M or IM-RXV3-M). The entire system can be
turned off at any time by simply holding down either button for five
seconds.
For systems having more than one IM transmitter, selecting an input at a
given input location overrides the previously selected input at any other
location. The audio level for each input location is controlled individually
by its respective volume control.
