Whether from an easy-to-use color touchpanel, remote or a customized keypad, total control is always at your fingertips.

Crestron lets you indulge in luxury with a single touch of a button. Imagine with just a single touch the lights dim, the shades close, the plasma TV turns on and your favorite movie begins.

Imagine at night the hallway lights automatically illuminate as you walk by.

Imagine what the Crestron Total Home Technology experience can bring to your lifestyle.

Crestron Total Home Technology Solutions offer integrated lighting automation and control. Lighting sets the perfect scene and creates the desired ambience for any occasion. Whether it's movie night, an intimate dinner for two, a business party or a quiet Sunday brunch reading the newspaper, lighting establishes the right mood. Traveling out of town or working late? The lights can execute pre-programmed scenes to simulate established lifestyle patterns. Dimmers can adjust internal lighting according to natural light levels in the home or incrementally over a pre-determined time period.

Crestron's Total Home Technology Solutions keeps your home comfortable at all times monitoring temperature and humidity levels automatically. No need to get up or even be home to adjust climate controls, with Crestron, you can control multiple zones from one location and easily pre-set temperature set points. Keep your home at a more energy efficient temperature while you're out, and programmed to automatically adjust to more comfortable levels by the time you get home. Getting home early? Use your PDA or PC to control the HVAC remotely, even monitor the wine cellar or greenhouse atrium temperatures.

Enjoy music throughout the entire home or in just the room you choose with Total Home Technology distributed audio. Experience a movie with digital surround sound. Listen to your jazz CDs while you read in the den while the kids play video games in the media room and your spouse listens to the radio on the terrace. Control the music of your life from any room in the house – no need to walk to the stereo to choose a component, select a CD, change tracks or adjust volume. Relax. You deserve it.

Create the ultimate Home Theater with Crestron Total Home Technology. With a single touch of the controller the lights dim, the shades close, the screen opens, the temperature adjusts, the AV components turn on, the inputs are selected, the volume is set and the DVD server begins to play your movie. Crestron puts you in complete control right from your comfortable seat. For modern movie lovers, nothing stirs the soul like the impact of an earth shaking sound effect or the enveloping warmth of a lushly orchestrated  soundtrack, Crestron offers unlimited possibilities for adding an optional dynamic surround sound experience.

Monitor the front door or gate; watch the kids by the swimming pool; or check on the baby napping in the nursery. You can control security cameras and watch what's going on around the house right from your Crestron touchpanel.

Crestron audio and video intercom solutions provide for the ultimate integration of whole-house AV, video security and voice communications. While listening to your favorite music or watching a DVD in the home theater, you'll know the instant someone rings the doorbell or enters the driveway as the audio is gently muted, the camera picture appears on the touchpanel or television, and you're able to speak with the visitor and grant access to your home at the simplest press of a button.
