Crestron DM-RMC-SCALER-C DigitalMedia 8G+ Receiver DigitalMedia 8G+ Receiver & Room Controller with Scaler: DM-RMC-SCALER-C Introduction The DM-RMC-SCALER-C provides an advanced 1-box interface solution for a single display device as part of a complete Crestron® DigitalMedia™ system. It functions as a DM 8G+™ receiver, video scaler, and control interface, providing a single HDMI® output along with Ethernet, USB HID, RS-232, and IR control ports.
Crestron DM-RMC-SCALER-C DigitalMedia 8G+ Receiver Features and Functions (Continued) • • • • • • • • • • • • • Allows motion-adaptive de-interlacing or interlacing Allows adjustable overscan or underscan up to 7.
Crestron DM-RMC-SCALER-C DigitalMedia 8G+ Receiver Multimedia Display Interface A single HDMI digital AV output port is provided on the DM-RMC-SCALER-C, supporting HD 1080p video and WUXGA computer signals with HDCP, Deep Color, 3D,1 and multichannel HD lossless audio—all through one connection. The HDMI output can also handle DVI signals using an appropriate adapter or interface cable.
DigitalMedia 8G+ Receiver Crestron DM-RMC-SCALER-C Video Wall Processing The DM-RMC-SCALER-C also provides zoom capability on its output to display just a portion of the source image. Using this feature, multiple units may be combined to configure a high-definition video wall composed of up to 16 individual displays. Configurations of 2 x 2, 3 x 2, 3 x 3, 4 x 3, or 4 x 4 are supported, and all that is required is a separate DM-RMC-SCALER-C for each display and a DM switcher with sufficient DM 8G+ outputs.
Crestron DM-RMC-SCALER-C DigitalMedia 8G+ Receiver Applications The diagram below shows a DM-RMC-SCALER-C in a standalone application. In this type of application, the DM-RMC-SCALER-C is used with a DM 8G+ transmitter such as the DM-TX-201-C and is not used with a DM switcher.

Crestron DM-RMC-SCALER-C 4. DigitalMedia 8G+ Receiver (Optional) If additional changes to TCP/IP settings are desired, do the following: a. Assign an IP address, IP mask, and default router for the DM-RMC-SCALER-C via the Crestron Toolbox (Functions | Ethernet Addressing). b. Close the “System Info” window. c. In Crestron Toolbox, change the Address Book entry for the DM-RMC-SCALER-C so that it uses the IP address assigned in step 4a. d.
Crestron DM-RMC-SCALER-C DigitalMedia 8G+ Receiver IP Configuration If the DM-RMC-SCALER-C is used in a standalone configuration (without a DM switcher), use Crestron Toolbox to create the IP table entry of the DM-RMC-SCALER-C. NOTE: If the DM-RMC-SCALER-C is connected to a DM switcher, the IP table entry of the DM-RMC-SCALER-C is created automatically. 1. Use the Device Discovery Tool to find the IP address of the DM-RMC-SCALER-C.
