5 5  Communications between Crestron Cresnet devices occurs on the Cresnet bus. Cresnet is Crestron's proprietary 4-wire communications network that provides both 24V DC power and low-voltage, bidirectional communication that adheres to to RS-485 standards.

7 -Each job with Cresnet devices will have at least one Cresnet bus network. Every Cresnet bus network has a single //host// or //primary// device and one or more //client// or //secondary// devices (older materials may refer to hosts as //masters// and clients as //slaves//). Every Cresnset device on a given Cresnet bus must be assigned a unique, two-byte hexadecimal Cresnet address, and the amount of available addresses is determined by the bus host. In addition

10 -Cresnet devices allowed on any given Cresnet bus is limited by the type of host
15 +Power considerations also play a role in determining the number of Cresnet devices which can be supported on a Cresnet bus, however we will not cover them here due to the wide array of variables which impact power calculations and determining whether there is sufficient power for a given device.
