CSA-PWS10S-HUB-ENET

10-Motor Power Supply with Ethernet to Cresnet

®

 Bridge and Cresnet Hub

Installation Guide

Installation

WARNING:

  To avoid fire, shock, or death, turn off the power at the circuit breaker or 

fuse and test that the power is off before wiring! 

CAUTION:

  All power feeds must be protected by single-pole-listed circuit breaker or 

branch-rated fuse no greater than 20 A.

NOTES:

  Observe the following points:

  •  Install and use this product in accordance with appropriate electrical codes and 

regulations.

  •  A licensed electrician should install this product.
  •  Use copper conductors only—rated 75

 °

C or better.

NOTE:

  Adequate clearance must be provided for servicing.

NOTE:

  This device is for indoor use only.

The CSA-PWS10S-HUB-ENET must be mounted vertically, either on a flat and vertical 
surface or in a CAEN enclosure, with the solid surface facing down.

Mounted to Flat Surface

The power supply must be mounted securely to building wall studs or at least 1/4 in 
(7 mm) plywood using four #8 pan head wood screws. Use the screw holes indicated in 
the second illustration in the “Description” section to secure the power supply to the 
mounting surface.

Mounted to CAEN Enclosure

The power supply can be mounted in any properly grounded CAEN enclosure using the 
provided screws. Use the screw holes indicated in the second illustration in the 
“Description” section to secure the power supply to the mounting surface.
Class 1 and Class 2 field wires must be kept separate. 

NOTE:

  The installer must provide disconnect means within the enclosure.

NOTE:

  The CSA-PWS10S-HUB-ENET power cable is considered to be a disconnect 

means. For this reason, the total length of power cable from the 
CSA-PWS10S-HUB-ENET to the outlet cannot exceed 14 ft (4.5 m).

NOTE:

  The CSA-PWS-TBLOCK-2 and CSA-PWS-TBLOCK-3 (both not included) 

provide a disconnect means within the CAEN enclosure. For installation details, refer to 
the CSA-PWS-TBLOCK-2/CSA-PWS-TBLOCK-3 Installation Guide (Doc. 7988) at 
www.crestron.com/manuals.

Wiring Configurations

The illustrations that follow show the various wiring configurations available. 
A CSA-PWS10S-HUB-ENET functions as a master device only when it is set to Ethernet. 
Another hub can be connected to the master hub only if that hub is set to Cresnet, 
thereby becoming the slave unit. Additional daisy-chained hubs must also all be set to 
Cresnet. 
Two daisy-chained CSA-PWS10S-HUB-ENET modules per Ethernet connection with up 
to 20 connected motors is the recommended topology for best performance. At its 
maximum capabilities, one CSA-PWS10S-HUB-ENET set to Ethernet can support up to 
six daisy-chained CSA-PWS10S-HUB-ENETs set to Cresnet, controlling up to 70 shade 
or drapery motors in total.

Wiring Overview

Description

The CSA-PWS10S-HUB-ENET powers up to 10 Crestron

®

 shade motors and features an 

Ethernet to Cresnet bridge and a built-in, 5-segment Cresnet hub. A local control 
interface with LED feedback indicators allows roller shade or drapery systems to be 
tested without a control system connection. The CSA-PWS10S-HUB-ENET is convection 
cooled for silent operation and can be surface mounted.

Make Connections

Once the unit is properly secured to the mounting surface, the unit must be properly 
wired. Refer to the guidelines below for each connection. 

Shade Connections

The power supply connections 1–10 have LEDs that indicate the status of the feed. The 
power LED remains solid when the circuit is functioning properly. It extinguishes when 
there is no power present (i.e., overcurrent trip, no power to device). It blinks slowly when 
the power draw exceeds 25 W and rapidly when the power draw exceeds 52.5 W.

Maximum Wire Runs

The cable length between the CSA-PWS10S-HUB-ENET and shade motor is limited by 
voltage drop along the cable. Observe the following limits for reliable performance.

NOTE

:  Wiring must be home run from the power supply to each shade motor.

The maximum total length of Cresnet cable run on each hub segment is 3,000 ft 
(~915 m). Observe the following maximum lengths for Cresnet cable between the power 
supply and shade:
  •  Cresnet-P (Plenum Rated, 2x #18 Power, 2x #22 Twisted Data) 130 ft (~40 m)
  •  Cresnet-NP (2x #18 Power, 2x #22 Twisted Data) 130 ft (~40 m)
  •  Cresnet-HP-NP (2x #12 Power, 2x #22 Twisted Data) 500 ft (~153 m)

LAN Port

Plug the Ethernet cable into the LAN port. Refer to the “Designate as Ethernet Master or 
Cresnet Slave” section for details about when to use the LAN port.

NET HOST Port

If the CSA-PWS10S-HUB-ENET is controlled over Cresnet, plug the Cresnet cable into 
the NET HOST - IN port. Refer to the “Designate as Ethernet Master or Cresnet Slave” 
section for details.
Use Cresnet cable to connect the NET HOST - OUT port on the 
CSA-PWS10S-HUB-ENET to the NET HOST - IN port of a daisy-chained slave 
CSA-PWS10S-HUB-ENET device. Refer to the “Designate as Ethernet Master or Cresnet 
Slave” section for details.

Power Cord

Attach the included power cord to the IEC male cord attached to the 
CSA-PWS10S-HUB-ENET. Connect the other end of the included power cord to a 
properly grounded electrical outlet.

MEMORY CARD Slot

The MEMORY CARD slot is reserved for future use only.

Designate as Ethernet Master or Cresnet Slave

The device can operate in Ethernet Master or Cresnet Slave mode.
  •  Slide the MODE switch all the way to LAN to designate it as 

master. When operating in Master mode, the device receives 
shade control via the LAN port.

  •  Slide the MODE switch all the way to CRES to designate it as 

a slave. When operating in Slave mode, the device receives 
shade control via the NET HOST - IN port.

NOTE:

 The device reboots when the operating mode is changed.

In Master mode, the NET HOST LED lights if a Cresnet slave device connected to the 
NET HOST port responds to a poll. If no poll occurs for 6 seconds, the NET HOST LED 
turns off. The LED turns off if Ethernet communication with the control system is 
interrupted.
In Master mode, the branch Net LEDs are turned off if Ethernet communication with the 
control system is interrupted for more than 6 seconds.

CAUTION

:  Double pole/neutral fusing is implemented.

NOTE

:  When additional Cresnet slave power supplies are added, the latency of the 

system may increase.

NOTE

:  Low-voltage wiring is intended for intrabuilding wiring only.
