Remote Asset Management
Crestron RoomView

is the first and only real time, multi-user remote asset management software that delivers complete
facility-wide network control of lighting resources, HVAC and AV. RoomView works seamlessly with Crestron control systems
and touchpanels to manage an entire network of devices and subsystems. RoomView is available in two versions to serve the
control and management requirements for every situation.
RoomView allows administrators and support staff to manage AV resources, perform remote system diagnostics, track the
usage of projector lamps, log network activity, monitor rooms, and automate tasks through event scheduling. An ideal master
controller, RoomView remotely locks out selected rooms to prevent unauthorized use of AV equipment. In fact, RoomView can
track any Crestron-based function, including lights, temperature, audio levels, motion detection, and much more. Interactive
help desk capabilities allow users to send help requests from their touchpanel or Web browser. Support staff can send text
messages back to the touchpanel, alert email contacts, and even launch e-Control
