The Crestron PC4-R is a PC-based control processor that is embedded with the Crestron Home® operating system. It is designed exclusively to function as the core of a Crestron Home system.
The Crestron PC4-R is secured and ready for operation out of the box and only needs power and an Ethernet connection to function.
Crestron Home® OS
Unlock the full potential of a smart home with the Crestron Home® OS. It provides dealers with the ability to deliver a simple and clean user interface that includes sophisticated page designs and dynamic room controls. It also provides powerful features such as support for multiple homes, favorites, custom access, and room image customizations. For additional information, see crestron.com/crestronhome.
PC Control Processor for Crestron Home® OS
The powerful Dell® micro computer takes the place of a traditional control processor and provides remarkable speed and performance while handling the demands of an advanced automated system. The PC control processor provides enhanced processing power to handle larger Crestron Home systems such as large home automation, home theater, multiroom video, and MDU (multidwelling unit) applications.
Crestron Home Setup and Control Apps
Set up and control the Crestron Home system with the Crestron Home Setup app and Crestron Home app.
l Use the Crestron Home Setup app to configure the Crestron Home system. The Crestron Home Setup app can be used on an Apple® iPad® device or a Mac® or Windows® PC.

l Use the Crestron Home app to control audio, video, lighting, shading, climate, a security system, door locks, cameras, and more throughout your home. The Crestron Home app provides the same look and feel on Crestron Home user-interface devices such as Crestron touch screens, Apple® iOS® devices, and AndroidTM devices.
Integration and Expansion
Add controls to the system when and where they are needed. This allows for system expansion that utilizes centralized and distributed system controls. The flexibility to combine centralized and distributed controls simplifies system installation and setup.
Centralized control is accomplished using Ethernet-toCresnet® bridges and wireless gateways. Cresnet wired devices such as keypads, lighting modules, and thermostats can be controlled using Ethernet-to-Cresnet bridges (DINCENCN-2-POE or CAEN-BLOCK-CENCN-2-POE) and Cresnet wired shade and drape motors can be controlled using the 10-Shade Power Supply and Ethernet-to-Cresnet Bridge (CSA-PWS10S-HUB-ENET). Control of SG wireless and infiNET EX® wireless devices is available using Crestron wireless gateways (all sold separately).
Distributed control of devices using COM, I/O, IR, and relays is available using CEN-IO control modules and C3 Series Control Cards (all sold separately). Additionally, DM®, DM NVX®, and other Crestron® interfaces allow integration of serial, IR, CEC, and more using their control ports.
Works with Crestron Home® OS
The Crestron Home system supports a wide variety of Crestron and third-party devices and controls them all from one user interface.
l Crestron Home® OS is designed to work with a wide variety of devices to provide control of audio, video, lighting, shading, climate, security systems, door locks, cameras, I/O devices, and third-party devices.
l The Crestron Home system utilizes Crestron Drivers to expand the functionality of the system. Crestron Drivers are available for AV receivers, AV switchers, Blu-ray® disc players, cable boxes, displays, pool controllers, projectors, video servers, and more. To view the complete list of drivers, visit drivers.crestron.io.
l Crestron works with our partners to offer the best smart home solution for you and your clients. Some of these partners include 2N video intercom door stations, Amazon® Alexa® voice control, Apple® iOS® devices and Siri® voice commands, Cool Automation, Android devicesTM and Google AssistantTM voice control, Josh.ai voice control, Sonos® speakers and amplifiers, Yale® door locks, and more.

myCrestron Services
The myCrestron services provide enhanced monitoring, remote access, and system configuration.
l The myCrestron Residential Monitoring Service (RMS) enables you to centrally monitor and manage Crestron Home systems with ease, identify issues, and resolve them faster. Crestron Home systems are displayed on an online dashboard to provide a comprehensive status update at a single glance. System-level information is available as well as device-level event logs that the Crestron Home system automatically sends to the cloud. Crestron True Blue Support and your technicians can access log files to eliminate many troubleshooting truck rolls.
l The myCrestron.com Dynamic DNS (DDNS) service furnishes a URL for the system that enables a remote connection for configuration using the Crestron Home Setup app. This also enables monitoring of a Crestron Home system.
l Use the Crestron Home Configurator to create and manage system configurations using the myCrestron RMS. Unlike the Crestron Home Setup app, the configuration can be created before arriving on-site and can be used to generate a variety of detailed configuration reports. After the system is installed, use a Deploy code to transfer the configuration onto the Crestron Home processor.
BACnet Network/IP Support
Native support for the BACnetTM communication protocol provides a direct interface to third-party building management systems over Ethernet, simplifying integration with HVAC, security, and other systems. Up to 2,000 BACnet objects are supported out of the box with no licensing required.
Versatile Installation
Install it on a flat, level surface or VESA® mounted using third-party VESA mounting solutions.
