Panel Summary
The iMC-Panel-100 is a configurable master control panel. It has two parts:
• 3RU rack-mountable button panel, 19.0” wide × 5.22” high × 3.7” deep.
You can also mount the button panel in a recess of a console surface.
The rear of the panel includes 2 USB ports, one VGA port, 2 (redundant) power supply con-
nectors (Molex 4-pin), an Ethernet port, GPI/alarm connector, and fan outlet.
• VGA display.
The VGA display is third-party equipment you must purchase separately. We recommend,
and support, the Planar series of touchscreen monitors. This guide describes the Planar
PT1945R 19” monitor.
Touchscreen monitors from other manufacturers will probably not work as part of the iMC-
Panel-100. However, most non-touchscreen VGA monitors will work as part of the iMC-
Panel-100. The monitor you use must have a screen resolution of at least 1280×1024 pixels.
The iMC-Panel-100 supports resolutions up to 1920×1200.
A mouse must be used with a non-touchscreen monitor.
The display provides a menu and a number of “soft” function buttons.
Button Panel
At the front of the iMC-Panel-100’s button panel are 41 color-coded LCD buttons and 6 knobs
(a.k.a. rotary encoders). Each LCD button has a 64×32 graphic display that usually shows 3 lines
of text, 8 characters per line. Sometimes a button can show graphics, as does the ‘Transition’
button at the lower right.
