About the CTR 8
The Extron CTR 8 control module provides contact closure input switching for most Extron
switchers with RS-232 capability. It allows simple push-buttons to remotely switch and
mute audio and video sources. The CTR 8 accepts up to eight contact closure inputs and
converts them to SIS serial commands that select the corresponding input on an Extron
switcher.
