Linn Lite Crestron Driver for SIMPL Windows
- This option offers control for basic functionally of Linn DS/DSM devices for Crestron systems using a 3-Series Processor. The Crestron project designed using SIMPL Windows can have up to 8 control points and within each control point a Linn DS/DSM device can be selected as the active room. The Linn Kustom DSM can be included as part of this setup and allows for several rooms to be added to the house with their own separate audio sources. This will work alongside Linn’s own control point application, Linn App, and changes will be communicated to the Crestron system.

- Requirements
-
- A Crestron 3-Series Processor1
- Linn DS/DSM devices (up to 20 rooms are possible)
- The Linn CI Gateway running on the local network – see here for more information.
-
- Note::1: This driver will also run on Crestron 4-Series processors, but it if this hardware is available then it is highly recommended to use the Linn Crestron 4-Series Driver for SIMPL Windows. If you wish to keep the implementation simple, then add-on modules can be removed.
- Features
-
- Automatic discovery of a CI Gateway instance on the local network
- Room selection - each Crestron control point has an actively selected room within the house topology that can be changed via the control point itself.
- Grouping - the current grouping of rooms set via the Linn App will be reflected in the room selection menu and automatically updated whenever a change in grouping occurs. The standby states and volumes of listening rooms can be set individually.
- For each room in the topology, the user has control over the following DS functionalities:
- Standby control - each room can be individually toggled between standby states.
- Volume control - step up/down, set absolute, mute toggle.
- Toggle shuffle and repeat states for appropriate sources.
- Transport control over any active playlist - play, pause, play/pause toggle, skip previous, skip next.
- Source selection - capable of selecting any visible external source.
- Metadata - retrieves basic metadata for currently playing item, including artwork.
- Pin selection - as on physical Linn DSM devices, 6 customizable buttons can be set up using the Linn App to provide easy access to a favourite radio station, playlist, or external source.
- Pin metadata - the name and associated artwork for each pin can also be accessed via the module and displayed on a Crestron control point interface.
- Standby states of all rooms within the house can be changed quickly and directly from a room selection menu without having to select the room as the active room of a CCP first
- Through SIMPL Windows configuration, a Crestron control point can be set to lock onto a certain room if that room is found through the CI Gateway. You can therefore have it configured, so a touch panel only controls the device in the room it is in. This is also useful if there is only one DS/DSM device in the setup and room selection can be skipped.
- For more advanced macro functionality, a command serial input optionally allows programmers to run LPEC commands directly to devices in the house from the Crestron processor.
