6" Widescreen Touch Panel with Knob, RS232/RS485 & PoE
KanexPro CR-TOUCH6R 6-inch widescreen touch panel with knob, Android 11, RS232, RS485, PoE. Programmable AV room controller with optional Wi-Fi/Bluetooth.
The KanexPro CR-TOUCH6R is a 6-inch widescreen capacitive touch panel with integrated programmable knob, running Android 11 for advanced AV room control. Powered by a quad-core ARM Cortex-A55 at 1.8GHz with 4GB DDR4 RAM and 32GB eMMC, it combines a 1440×720 customizable graphical interface with a physical knob for tactile volume and dimming control. The CR-TOUCH6R features both RS232 and RS485 serial ports, 100Mbps Ethernet with PoE, and optional Wi-Fi/Bluetooth, 4-array microphone, stereo speakers, light/distance sensor, and temperature/humidity sensor. Programming is handled through EASYAccomplish software for Windows, Mac, and iOS. For US installations, a surface-mount 86 box adapter or retrofit plate would be needed since US standard gang boxes have different screw spacing.

Questions
- What is the rotary knob used for?
- Programmable for any analog function — volume, dimming, temperature, curtain position, or custom parameters. Provides tactile feedback that on-screen sliders cannot.
- What serial protocols are supported?
- RS-232 (TX/GND/RX) for legacy device control and RS-485 (A/GND/B) for bus systems like lighting and HVAC.
- Does it work with third-party controllers?
- Yes. 10/100M Ethernet supports TCP/UDP/HTTP(s)/WebSocket for any IP-based control system.
- PoE only?
- Yes, one Cat cable for power + 100M data. DC 24V/1A is an alternative.
- Is the knob removable?
- No, it is integrated into the panel design.
- Knob not responding?
- Check that the knob function is mapped in the panel configuration. Verify firmware is current via Micro USB.
- Screen unresponsive?
- Check power (PoE or DC 24V), verify Ethernet, try power cycling.
- What wall box does it fit?
- Standard 86 box (UK/CN). The widescreen panel extends wider (206mm) but mounts on the same 86 box.
- Annual licensing?
- No. No recurring fees, no proprietary software.
- What is the screen resolution?
- 1440x720 landscape — twice the horizontal resolution of the 4-inch CR-TOUCH4A.
