    ABOUT THE AVL ECOSYSTEM

    The intelligent power foundation for your entire facility.

    LynTec’s AVL Ecosystem provides a single, unified control plane for every circuit powering your audio, video, and lighting equipment.

    An AVL ecosystem requires a power infrastructure engineered for system-wide reliability and control. LynTec provides this foundation with network-enabled breaker panels like the RPC and LCP series. These systems centralize power management, allowing you to sequence, monitor, and protect every circuit from a single web interface or third-party control system.

    By integrating native support for DMX, sACN, and IP, our panels connect directly to your lighting and AV controllers without complex gateways. This modular architecture simplifies installation, reduces labor costs, and scales from a single room to a multi-venue campus, all while providing robust brownout and surge protection for sensitive downstream equipment.

    WHY IT MATTERS

    Engineered for integrated systems.

    01

    Unified control from a single, web-enabled interface.

    Manage up to 168 circuits across multiple panels from one browser. Native support for DMX, sACN, IP, and BACnet allows direct integration with AV and lighting controllers, eliminating protocol converters and simplifying system design.
    02

    A modular foundation that scales with your project.

    Start with a single intelligent panel and expand with secondary panels as needed. This approach allows for cost-effective growth and standardized control, whether you are outfitting a small theater or an entire campus.
    03

    Built-in protection for sensitive downstream equipment.

    Automated power sequencing prevents dangerous inrush currents during startup. Integrated brownout protection automatically shuts down circuits during under-voltage events, safeguarding expensive AV and lighting hardware. All systems are ETL listed to UL 924 for emergency egress.
    FAQ

    Your questions, answered.

    Common questions about designing and specifying a LynTec power ecosystem.
    Can a single system manage sequencing across multiple panels?

    Yes. In an RPC system, the master panel serves as the central brain for the entire power infrastructure. From its web interface, you can configure circuit-level sequencing with user-defined step-rates that apply across the master panel and all connected secondary panels. This ensures a coordinated and safe power-up sequence for all connected AVL equipment.

    Can LynTec panels integrate with control systems like Crestron or Q-SYS?

    Yes. Our systems are engineered for straightforward integration with third-party AV automation platforms, including Crestron, AMX, and Q-SYS. By using simple IP commands (via Telnet), you can trigger power sequences, control zones, and query system status directly from your preferred control processor. This allows you to incorporate LynTec power control into a single, unified user interface for the entire facility.

    Do these switches work with third-party control systems like Crestron or Q-SYS?

    LynTec switches provide a physical user interface for a LynTec power control panel. The integration with a third-party system like Crestron, AMX, or Q-SYS happens at the panel level, not at the switch itself.

    You can use a LynTec switch for local manual control while simultaneously managing the same power panel over the network via Telnet, sACN, DMX, or other protocols supported by our controllers. The switch becomes one part of a complete, integrated control infrastructure.

    How do I scale a system for a large facility or campus?

    The LynTec ecosystem is designed for modular growth. You can start with a single intelligent master panel, like an RPC, and add cost-effective RPS secondary panels as the project expands. This architecture allows a single RPC controller to manage up to 168 circuits across multiple panels from one web interface, providing standardized and centralized control for an entire campus.

    How do manual controllers fit into a larger, mixed-control system?

    Our manual controllers are built using the same enclosures and high-quality components as our networked panels. This ensures a consistent installation and service experience across an entire facility. You can easily integrate a manual controller for a specific zone within a building that otherwise relies on networked or automated control, maintaining a uniform and professional appearance.

    How do your panels handle emergency lighting (UL 924) requirements?

    Both our RPC and LCP series panels are ETL listed to UL 924 standards for emergency egress lighting. They feature circuit-selectable auto-on functionality that can be triggered by a fire alarm or other contact closure. This ensures that designated emergency lights are automatically powered on during an emergency event, simplifying compliance and system design.

    How does sequencing scale from a single rack to an entire facility?

    LynTec’s architecture is modular, allowing you to scale your power control infrastructure as needed. For individual racks, a standalone unit like the CQ 1515 or the network-enabled NPAC provides simple, reliable sequencing.

    For facility-wide control, the RPC Remote Control Breaker Panel system can manage up to 168 circuits from a single web interface. You can also use the XPC series to extend sequenced control to distributed equipment anywhere in the building, all integrated into one cohesive system.

    How does the AVL Ecosystem integrate with third-party control systems?

    Our panels are engineered for direct integration. Native support for DMX, sACN, and IP (Telnet/HTTP) allows seamless connection to lighting consoles and AV control systems like Crestron and AMX without external protocol converters. For building management integration, RPC panels also offer an optional BACnet IP interface, simplifying facility-wide automation.

    How does the RPC system scale for large facilities?

    The RPC system is modular. You start with a single RPC Master Panel, which contains all the system intelligence and control interfaces. To expand, you add cost-effective RPS Secondary Panels. This architecture allows a single master panel to control a complete power infrastructure of up to 168 circuits, all managed from one web interface.

    What is the upgrade path for a sequencing system as a facility grows?

    Our product ecosystem is designed for modular scalability. A small installation can start with a standalone CQ Series sequencer in a single rack. Multiple CQ units can be linked together using standard RJ-45 cables as more racks are added.

    For network control, an NPAC rackmount panel can manage up to four circuits, and up to 10 NPACs can be linked and controlled as one system. For facility-wide control, the RPC breaker panel system provides a centralized infrastructure that can manage up to 168 circuits and can be extended with XPC remote relay modules for distributed assets.

    What protection features are standard in your ecosystem panels?

    LynTec panels provide multiple layers of protection for sensitive equipment. Standard features include automated power sequencing to prevent dangerous inrush currents at startup and brownout protection, which automatically shuts down circuits during under-voltage events. For complete protection, optional SurgeX or SPD modules can be integrated directly into the panels.

    When should I specify an LCP panel instead of an RPC panel?

    The choice depends on the application’s primary focus. The LCP series is purpose-built for lighting and video wall installations, offering robust DMX and sACN control. The RPC system is a more comprehensive infrastructure solution for mixed audio, video, and lighting environments. It provides broader protocol support, advanced sequencing, and greater scalability for facility-wide control.
