Hi all,

I've been landed a last minute AV system job that's a little out of my
field
and wondered if there was anyone here who might be able to help.

The job ;

- Customer wants "one of those fancy wireless control thingies"
for their
boardroom.

- There is an existing projector VGA (via DVI), composite & svideo and
IR
control.

- They need to switch between VGA (laptop) and 4 composite video sources.

- 5 x Switched power  (4 appliance, 1 light)

- 2 x dimmed power (2 light)

- Manual buttons on the wall for the lights


Timescales ;  quote asap, installation if accepted within two weeks.


As far as I see it the two levels of doing this are ;

1) An IR pronto and AV amp.  Not sure on power control yet, I don't feel
X10
is robust enough for use in a boardroom with who knows how much noise
floating round the mains.   Does C-Bus have an IR input ?

2) Crestron or AMX type system.  I have worked with these before, although
not installed, and know they can do the job.  Although not sure where to
start with commissioning one and very jumpy about the timescales.



Can anyone out there help ?


Many thanks if you've read this far:-)


Mark.
