Introduction
About the CTR 8
The Extron CTR 8 control module provides contact closure input switching for most Extron
switchers with RS-232 capability. It allows simple push-buttons to remotely switch and
mute audio and video sources. The CTR 8 accepts up to eight contact closure inputs and
converts them to SIS serial commands that select the corresponding input on an Extron
switcher.
Features
Eight contact closure inputs with tally allow remote switching and selection
status using simple push-button control.
COM switcher port sends SIS commands to the Extron switcher for input switching
and muting.
A/V muting allows the user to mute a switcher output by consecutively pushing the
same input button.
+5 VDC output on each contact closure input is used to light an LED, indicating
input selection.
Remote RS-232 port for remote control using Extron Simple Instruction Set (SIS)
commands.
DC power input with loop-through allows one power supply to power the CTR 8
and an additional Extron device.
