Jupiter Facility Control System

Jupiter control requires connection of a CM-4000 or VM-3000 Crosspoint
bus cable to an Apex equipped with a CX-34000 Control XPT board
(

Figure 21

). The VM/CM can receive switching commands from a variety

of serial sources, including Jupiter control panels or an automation com-
puter.

Note

Systems larger than 512 x 512 stereo (or larger than 1024 x 1024 mono)
cannot be controlled by a VM-3000. Stereo mode switching (mix, reverse,
etc.) is not available for Jupiter-controlled systems with more than 512
inputs.
