Compatible with both Crestron and Prodigy product lines, the award-winning ST8 can be programmed just like any other native Crestron device on the network, thanks to built-in Crestron IP control.

High-speed Ethernet simplifies data sharing between the ST8 and Crestron controllers, for faster system response time and a better user experience.

Arm and disarm the entire home or just specific entry points. Even from a bedside keypad or touchpanel, put your home into “sleep” mode, simultaneously arming the system, turning off unnecessary lights; even making sure the garage door is closed.

Use your computer or mobile device to check the status of your home, anywhere, anytime. Additionally, the system can send status alerts to your email or cell phone and report alarm conditions to the central station over internet.

“Creating new business opportunities for our dealers is a constant priority for us,” Crestron director of marketing Vincent Bruno says.

“Combining native Crestron control with this extremely advanced security system – at a very affordable price – delivers real value, to both our dealers and their clients.”

Using the menu-driven Prodigy Composer wizard (coming soon), integrators can add the ST8 without programming. Crestron SystemBuilder support delivers simple drag-and-drop system customisation, and pre-loaded graphics provide intuitive and attractive interface options.

For even more fine-tuning, advanced programmers can take advantage of the SIMPL Windows environment.

“We’re delighted to team up with a leader like Crestron, and provide this powerful, simple-to-install security system,” Sequel Technologies president Duane Paulson says.

“A security system with native Crestron control allows integrators to deliver a complete home automation solution with the added benefit of monthly monitoring sub-contracts.”
