Alexander Mott 20.3 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.

Alexander Mott 20.5 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//).
