The Extron IPCP Pro PCS1 xi is a versatile, high-performance control processor with AC power and device control. It features enhanced performance with greater processing power and twice the memory of our previous IP Link Pro series. This unique control processor combines a variety of AV control ports and the ability to supply and manage device power. Featuring IEC power connectors and rated for 100-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz operation, the IPCP Pro PCS1 xi provides worldwide compatibility. The compact IPCP Pro PCS1 xi has advanced security standards and Gigabit Ethernet, which ensures compatibility with multiple TouchLink® Pro touchpanels and Network Button Panels using a standard network infrastructure. The IPCP Pro PCS1 xi is an ideal choice for controlling multiple devices, control signal types, and device power within an AV system.

Features

  • Upgraded single-core processor and two times more memory with 1 GB of RAM and 8 GB of Flash — For increased project upload speeds, faster runtime performance, and more sophisticated projects.
  • Supports TouchLink Pro touchpanels, eBUS® devices, Network Button Panels, and IPL EXP expansion interfaces
  • Supports secure industry standard communications protocols — All IP Link Pro models use industry standard communication protocols, including HTTP (insecure), HTTPS, SSH, SFTP, SMTP, NTP, Discovery Service, DHCP, DNS, ICMP, 802.1X, and IPv4.
  • Supports LinkLicense® — Extron LinkLicense unlocks features that add convenience, expand system functionality, and enhance the capabilities of Extron products.
  • Intelligent current sensing with alarm — Administrators can monitor AV systems for conditions or events that are inappropriate, such as unwanted power down situations or an unplanned disconnected product.
  • Outlet status retention during power loss — The internal memory of the IPCP Pro PCS1 xi is unaffected with power loss, ensuring that the power condition of the attached device is restored after a power cycle.
  • One male AC input and one female AC output - both using IEC connections
  • Easily-accessible, front panel circuit breaker adds over-current protection for remotely controlled connected devices
  • One bidirectional RS-232 serial port with software handshaking
  • One IR/Serial port for one-way control of external devices
  • Three digital I/O ports — Allows for interfacing with other systems in the room.
  • eBUS port for connecting eBUS button panels and accessories
  • Supports 10/100/1000Base-T
  • Supports popular BMS – Building Management System protocols, such as BACnet, KNX, and DALI — These protocols allow for centralized monitoring and control of mechanical and electrical systems that include HVAC, lighting, power, fire, and security.
  • Ethernet monitoring and control — Manage, monitor, and control AV devices using a standard Ethernet network.
  • Central Deployment - Use the primary control processor to deploy all system files, configurations and programs — Quickly deploy the control system by uploading all project files to the primary control processor. The primary control processor will automatically transfer files to the other touchpanels, control processors and button panels in that system once they come online.
  • Supports Ethernet-controllable devices — Allows for control of multiple Ethernet-enabled AV devices such as displays, switchers, and sources.
  • Automatic clock synchronization allows touchpanel to display the accurate time and date
  • Supports control system synchronization — Synchronization will allow users to retain and recover the state of their configured endpoints in case of network or power failure.
  • Front panel port status indicators
  • Front panel security lockout — If used in an unsecured environment where easy access is undesirable, a security lock-out feature may be implemented. During lock-out mode, the front panel AC button is disabled.
  • Multi-level password protection — Allows security to be set based on user roles.
  • Fully customizable using Extron control system software — GUI Designer combined with Global Configurator Plus, Global Configurator Professional, or ControlScript programming.
  • Library of Pro Series device drivers and modules for use with Global Configurator and ControlScript programming, respectively — Start and execute projects quickly using Extron Global Configurator device drivers and Extron device modules to control various display and source devices, such as projectors, flat-panel displays, and Blu-ray players.
  • Supports 802.1X Authentication — Provides support for IEEE 802.1X authentication standard for port-based Network Access Control.
  • Compact, 1U, quarter rack width metal enclosure
  • Highly reliable, energy-efficient internal universal power supply — The 100-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz, international power supply provides worldwide power compatibility with high demonstrated reliability.
  • TAA Compliant version available — Please inform your local Extron representative if your order requires compliance with TAA regulations.
