Crestron DigitalMedia was developed to meet the challenges of the digital era. Introduced a year ago, Crestron DM is rapidly becoming an industry standard. There are already more than 4,100 successful installations in luxury homes and prestigious organizations such as Microsoft, Ogilvy & Mather and the Vancouver Winter Olympics Complex.
Now, Crestron is providing the definitive design, installation and commissioning specification to guarantee the reliable performance of DigitalMedia systems. The new spec establishes an industry standard, and the DM Certification program ensures that AV professionals are fully educated and adhere to the standard. This sets a high benchmark for digital AV systems and gives clients the confidence that our industry remains a trusted and valued technology resource.
The HD-DTDS Specification
The HD Digital Transport and Distribution System (HD-DTDS) specification is a comprehensive roadmap that clearly defines the critical aspects of system design and installation that must be followed to assure reliable system performance. Crestron guarantees and fully supports any DM system installation that conforms to the HD-DTDS standards.
DM Certified Designer
The DMC-D class is a one-day course that concludes with an exam that must be passed to earn certification and is a prerequisite for DMC-E. A DM Certified Designer understands the fundamental differences between analog and digital systems and the unique design considerations needed to ensure reliable operation. Consultants are widely adopting the HD-DTDS specification and earning DMC-D certification. The DMC-D

class is the first day of the DMC-E Certification program. Professionals who intend to achieve DMC-E Certification may continue on for the next two days to complete the program.
 
DM Certified Engineer
The DMC-E certification is a rigorous three-day program beginning with the DMC-D class on Day 1. This program details every aspect of system installation and commissioning. DM certified engineers demonstrate proficiency in system setup, diagnostics, testing and reporting. Only a DMC-E is equipped to fully execute and support a DM project. Written into the specification, only dealers with a DMC-E on staff will be qualified to bid on projects designed using the HD-DTDS.
