Crestron CEN-TRACK Tuner Rack
Tuner Rack: CEN-TRACK
Introduction
The CEN-TRACK is a modular multi-tuner capable of providing up to six
independent radio tuners for use in a Crestron
system. Control of each tuner is available through the LCD front panel, as well as
from Crestron touchpanels, computers and mobile devices via a Crestron control
system.
The CEN-TRACK is available in four different models.
Up to three ATC-Series tuner cards can be installed in the CEN-TRACK to enable
combinations of AM/FM terrestrial radio, SIRIUS or XM satellite radio, and
Crestron Interwave Internet radio tuners. The modular card-based design makes it
easy to change or expand the tuner configuration as needs change, or upgrade any
tuner card as new features and services become available. Each CEN-TRACK model
comes with one tuner card included.
Choose any combination of up to three tuner cards:
•Terrestrial Radio — Each AM/FM tuner card includes two completely
independent AM/FM stereo tuners to support two separate listening zones.
Each tuner features RDS/RBDS on the FM band.
•Satellite Radio — Accommodating your choice of SIRIUS or XM satellite
radio services, each tuner card provides one satellite tuner and one AM/FM
tuner with RDS/RBDS to support two separate listening zones.
•Internet Radio — Each Crestron Interwave card provides a single Internet
radio tuner for streaming over 15,000 available online radio stations and
podcasts from around the world.
Multiple Outputs
1
Up to six independent audio outputs allow for connection to any multi-room audio
distribution system, letting listeners in different rooms each enjoy their own choice
of music, news, sports and talk. Both balanced and unbalanced analog outputs are
provided, making the CEN-TRACK ideal for use in all types of professional and
commercial applications as well as the finest residential installations. Digital outputs
are also included to deliver the highest quality audio interface from satellite and
Internet radio sources.
2
Metadata Display
Satellite radio services, as well as many FM and Internet radio stations, send text
information called “metadata” as part of their broadcast signals. Metadata can
include the radio station name, program or song title, artist name, category, traffic,
weather, and phone numbers. All of this information is displayed on the Tuner
Rack’s front panel LCD screen. But better than that, it can also be displayed on any
Crestron touchpanel or APAD controller, providing useful info rmation to the listener
at any location throughout the home or office.
Program Guide
Each satellite and Internet radio tuner supports powerful browsing capabilities
through an extensive program guide, which can be customized for display on any
Crestron touchpanel or computer, listing every available channel and what is
currently playing on each channel. Versatile search options make it fun and easy to
locate whatever you want to hear. Multiple users can each have full access to browse
any of the available tuner program guides simultaneously without conflict, and
favorite stations can be saved as presets for quick and easy recall.
1. SIRIUS or XM Satellite Radio requires subscription. Contact Sirius XM Radio Inc. for details.
2. The number of outputs and digital output capability are dependent upon the tuner cards installed.
Consult the specifications for each tuner card model for complete details.
The CEN-TRACK communicates with a Creston control system via high speed
Ethernet, ensuring full bandwidth to support multiple users and touchpanels. The
control system’s clock may also be synchronized to any digital radio tuner card that
provides a time signal. Full setup and diagnostics may be performed from the front
panel or Crestron Toolbox™ software. Additionally, the antenna signal strength and
subscription activation codes can also be displayed on a touchpanel for easy
troubleshooting.

Programming with Crestron SystemBuilder
Crestron SystemBuilder is the easiest method of programming but does not offer as
much flexibility as SIMPL Windows. For additional details, download
SystemBuilder from the Crestron Web site and examine the extensive help file.
Programming with SIMPL Windows
NOTE: While SIMPL Windows can be used to program the CEN-TRACK, it is
recommended to use SystemBuilder for configuring a system.
SIMPL Windows is Crestron’s premier software for programming Crestron control
systems. It is organized into two separate but equally important “Managers”:
Configuration and Program.
Configuration Manager is the view where programmers “build” a Crestron control
system by selecting hardware from the Device Library.
To incorporate the CEN-TRACK into the system, drag the CEN-TRACK
1.
from the Ethernet Control Modules | Ethernet Audio Modules folder of the
Device Library and drop it in the System Views.
Locating the CEN-TRACK and Tuner Cards in the Device Library
Tuner cards and Browse Context modules will also need to be added:
•
Tuner Cards: Drag the control cards for the tuner(s) you have
installed from the Plug-in Control Cards | Cards (CEN-TRACK)
folder of the Device Library and drop it (or them) on the
CEN-TRACK.
•
Browse Context Modules: Drag one or more CEN-TRACK
Browse Contexts from the Ethernet Control Modules | Ethernet
Audio Modules folder of the Device Library and drop it (or them)
on the CEN-TRACK.
NOTE: The Browse Contexts are designed to communicate with a
single user interface, either a touchpanel or an APAD. You can add
a Browse Context for each interface. Use CEN-TRACK GUI
Browse Context(s) for touchpanels. Use CEN-TRACK Simple
Browse Context(s) for the APAD.
NOTE: The IP ID specified in the SIMPL Windows program must match the IP ID
of each unit. Refer to “Identity Code” on page 9.
Program Manager
Program Manager is the view where programmers “program” a Crestron control
system by assigning signals to symbols.
The symbol can be viewed by double clicking on the icon or dragging it into Detail View. Each signal in the symbol is described in the SIMPL Windows help file (F1).
Example Program
An example program for the CEN-TRACK is available from the Crestron Web site
(www.crestron.com/exampleprograms).
Crestron recommends using the latest programming software and that each device
contains the latest firmware to take advantage of the most recently released features.
However, before attempting to upload or upgrade it is necessary to establish
communication. Once communication has been esta bl i shed, files (for example,
programs or firmware) can be transferred to the control system (and/or device).
Finally, program checks can be performed (such as changing the device ID or
creating an IP table) to ensure proper functioning.
Establishing Communication
Use Crestron Toolbox for communicating with the CEN-TRACK; refer to the
Crestron Toolbox help file for details. There are two methods of communication.

Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document but changing it is not allowed.
PREAMBLE
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public
License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.
This General Public License applies to most of the Free Software Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors
commit to using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by the GNU Lesser General Public License instead.)
You can apply it to your programs too.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that
you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can
get it if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new free programs and that you know you can do these
things.
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of the software or if you modify it.
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that you
have. You must make sure that they too receive or can get the source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their
rights.
We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to
copy, distribute and/or modify the software.
Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we want its recipients to know that what they have is not the
original, so that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original authors' reputations.
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that
any patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification follow.
GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be

Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications a nd/or tr ans lated into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is
included without limitation in the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you".
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of
running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
Program (independent of having been made by running the Program). Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this
License along with the Program.
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for
a fee.
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.
c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but does
not normally print such an announcement, your work based on the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program and
can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in themselves, then this License and its terms do not apply to those
sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work
based on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend
to the entire whole and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works based on the Program.
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a
volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this License.
3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the
terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which must be distributed under the terms of
Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your cost of
physically performing source distribution, a complete machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be distributed
under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is
allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you received the program in object code or executable form with such an
offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete
source code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a special exception, the source code distributed need not include
anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel and so on) of the
operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies the executable.
If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent access
to copy the source code from the same place counts as distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not compelled to
copy the source along with the object code.
4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt
otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is void and will automatically terminate your rights under this
License. However, parties who have received copies or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so
long as such parties remain in full compliance.
5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by
modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so and
all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the Program or works based on it.
6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further
restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
this License.
7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do
not excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent
license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you,
then the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended
to apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free software distribution system, which is implemented
by public license practices. Many people have made generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed through that
system in reliance on consistent application of that system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute
software through any other system and a licensee cannot impose that choice.
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a consequence of the rest of this License.
8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
original copyright holder who places the Program under this License may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation
excluding those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License
incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the General Public License from time to time. Such new
versions will be similar in spirit to the present version but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program specifies a version number of this License which applies to it
and "any later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that version or of any later version
published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of this License, you may choose any
version ever published by the Free Software Foundation.
10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the
author to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software
Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of all
derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
NO WARRANTY
11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO
THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE
COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY
KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND
PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE
COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT
HOLDER OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED
ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT
NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR
THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH
HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
