Crestron Deployment Tool for PowerShell® Software
Crestron has developed a tool for customers without the ability to use CPS to assist in
deploying multiple devices without the need to configure each device individually. With
this tool, an administrator has the ability to input all of the settings to be configured on
multiple AM-200 and AM-300 devices, and then use PowerShell®
line shell and scripting language to configure the devices across a local network.
On its own, the AM-200 and AM-300 present content via the following connections:
• A device connected to the HDMI INPUT port
• A device connected to the DM IN port (AM-300 only).
• AirMedia
By default, the AM-200 and AM-300 present the input that was last connected.
Optionally, a touch screen (sold separately or as part of a system) can be used to control
the system. Additionally, a keypad (sold separately or as part of a system) can be used
to adjust volume and turn the system on or off. For instructions on using a touch screen,
refer to “Touch Screen Operation” below. For instructions on using a keypad, refer to
“Keypad Operations” on page 50. Otherwise, continue below.
Connect a Source
Connect a device to the HDMI INPUT port or any of the inputs on a connected DM
transmitter (AM-300 only). The last connected source is the device that is shown on the
display connected to the AM-200 or AM-300.
Touch Screen Operation
While the AM-200 and AM-300 always display the last connected source, a connected
touch screen can be used to switch the system power, switch between sources, and
adjust volume. The home screen is displayed upon system startup.
NOTE: Depending on the device’s configuration, some functions described here may not

etc.
).
When reserving a meeting space within a current 30-minute block, the start time
is rounded down to the nearest 5-minute increment. For example, tapping
RESERVE NOW at 5:44 pm creates a meeting with a start time of 5:40. If
RESERVE NOW is tapped at 5:46 pm, the meeting start time would be 5:45 pm.
The meeting end time may be set by the user.
NOTE: RESERVE NOW Meetings may only be scheduled for the current day from
the device.
Scroll through the available end times to select the duration of the meeting. The
room may be reserved for up to three lengths.
