The ControlCenter 1100 Keyboard offers advanced control
and programming of the MegaPower family of matrix switcher/
controller systems via an easy to use hardware and software
interface. A user can accomplish complex tasks with the intuitive,
highly customizable user-interface. By integrating smart card
technology, ControlCenter keyboards become truly unique
workstations for each and every user.
The large backlit LCD provides a menu-driven interface that
allows users to quickly navigate through all system functions.
These functions include the 64 macro keys arranged with eight
macros to a screen. Each operator can customize his or her own
keyboard to perform a multitude of system tasks via simple, easy
to remember keystrokes. The user can customize each macro key
with an icon or name from the library of 250 unique identifiers.
These keys can denote any camera view, camera location, and/or
system function. In addition, each of the eight screens can be
given a user-defined macro family name so that macros can be
logically organized into groups.
The LCD window uses large, clear text to indicate the currently
selected site, camera, preset, monitor, and recorder number.
Standard system controls are selected via the color-coded,
rubberized general purpose soft keys and a three-axis joystick
provides precise one-handed control of pan/tilt/zoom functions.
In addition, the keyboard offers recorder control for VCRs and
digital video recorders (DVRs).
Keyboard access is controlled via removable smart cards,
configurable for different levels of functionality: operator,
supervisor, and administrator. The smart card provides general
access (i.e. all operators use the same card) or passcode access.
Also, the smart card can be used to partition camera view and
control and monitor access to create a custom workspace that
follows each user to any keyboard location. Moreover, smart
cards can store macro data so macros can be transferred from
one ControlCenter keyboard to another or even be customized for
each user.
With the multi-function Camera Next/Last keys, the user can step
back and forth through the last 20 cameras selected. This allows
the user to undo previous camera call-ups. If a tour is enabled,
then these keys will perform tour control functions.
