Telephone Interface Module Crestron CEN-TIA
Operation
The CEN-TIA uses audio messages as voice prompts and responses. These files can
be WAV or MP3 files. Pre-recorded message files can be downloaded from
Crestron’s website (
ftp://ftp.crestron.com).
A Cresnet system with the CEN-TIA may be programmed to respond to incoming
telephone tones or a sequence of tones. For example, pressing 1 from a telephone
(after connecting to the system) may be used to activate an air conditioning system
and the CEN-TIA would respond with “Command accepted, air conditioning is on”.
The system may also be programmed to dial-out and play a recorded message when
a specific input, such as from a security system, is received. By using CID
information, the system can be programmed to allow access from only a specific
telephone to perform various functions or play customized greetings depending on
the number calling.
Refer to the Toolbox help file for details on setting up the CEN-TIA to perform these
and many other functions.
