Crestron ST-IO Input/Output Module Input/Output Module: ST-IO Introduction Features and Functions There are two Crestron® Input/Output Module configurations available: ST-IO and STI-IO. Configuration differences depend on which power pack is used. The ST-IO is supplied with a power pack for a 120V AC supply and the STI-IO is supplied with a power pack for 220VAC. For purposes of this Operations Guide, the term ST-IO is used for either configuration.
Input/Output Module Crestron ST-IO Specifications The following three tables provide a summary of specifications for the ST-IO module, digital inputs, and relay outputs. ST-IO Specifications SPECIFICATION DETAILS Power Requirements 6 Watts (.25A @ 24VDC) - Cresnet or 0.5A @ 12VDC external power supply (supplied) Default Net ID Control System Update Files 14 1, 2, 3 2-Series Control System Version C2-2.000.CUZ or later CEN/CN-TVAV Version 5.10.13V.UPZ or later CNMSX-AV/Pro Version 5.01.35X.
Crestron ST-IO Input/Output Module ST-IO Relay Output Specifications (Per Channel) SPECIFICATION Maximum Rating per Relay DETAILS 1A, 30 Volts (AC or DC) Maximum 100 μA, 100 mV Minimum Physical Description The ST-IO, shown in the following illustrations, is housed in a black enclosure with labels on the front and rear panels. The 14 LEDs on the front panel indicate the current status. All connections are made on the rear of the unit.

Crestron ST-IO Input/Output Module NET These two 6-pin, RJ-12 modular jacks are used to connect the ST-IO module to a Cresnet control system. When the module is part of the Cresnet system, power may be supplied via NET if within system power and cable length limits; the supplied power pack is optional and need not be attached. Two NET ports are available so that network units can be daisy-chained together. Review the latest revision of the Network Modular Cable Requirements (Doc. 5682).
Input/Output Module Crestron ST-IO NET This yellow LED illuminates when communication between Cresnet and the ST-IO is established. Illumination indicates that the SIMPL Windows program currently loaded has a network device defined with the same network ID as the ST-IO. Input (1 through 4) These red LEDs illuminate when the respective signal to the digital input is logic 1. RELAY (1 through 8) These red LEDs illuminate when the respective relay is closed.
Crestron ST-IO Input/Output Module 3. From the Viewport menu, select Functions | Set Network ID. The software checks the baud rate and then opens the "Set Network ID" window. 4. In the "Set Network ID" window, select the device requiring a Net ID change from the Current Network Devices text window. 5. Select the new Net ID for the device from the Choose the new network ID for the selected device (Hex): text box. 6. Click Set ID to initiate the change.
Input/Output Module Crestron ST-IO Location of Jumpers on ST-IO PC Board NOTE: The jumpers must be installed in one of the two positions described in step 6. If the jumpers are completely removed, the ST-IO will not function properly. 6. Lift the jumpers from the pins and replace so that that the proper pins are connected together. (Cover pins 1 and 2 for voltage mode. Cover pins 2 and 3 for closure mode.) 7. Replace the cover by sliding it over the unit and secure with four screws and washers. 8.

Crestron ST-IO Input/Output Module drop it in System Views. The PRO2 system tree displays the ST-IO in Slot 9, with a default Net ID of 14 as shown in the following illustration. NOTE: The first ST-IO in a system is preset with a Net ID of 14 when its symbol is dragged into the upper pane of System Views. Additional ST-IO units are assigned different Net ID numbers as they are added.
Input/Output Module Crestron ST-IO ST-IO Symbol in Programming Manager Programming Manager is where programmers “program” a Crestron control system by assigning signals to symbols. The following graphic shows the ST-IO symbol in the SIMPL Windows’ Programming Manager. ST-IO SIMPL Windows Symbol The ST-IO provides eight isolated relays for controlling low voltage contact closure devices such as drapes, screens and lifts. It also provides four local digital outputs.
Crestron ST-IO Input/Output Module To add a device extender, right-click the ST-IO in Program View, point to Insert Device Extender and select the desired device extender. To program a device extender, expand the ST-IO in Program View and drag the device extender to Detail View. Uploading Assuming a PC is properly connected to the entire system, Crestron programming software allows the programmer to upload programs and projects after their development to the system and network devices.
