ControlCenter™ 200/300 Keyboards

The ControlCenter 200/300 Series keyboards are robust, full-function system keyboards compatible with MegaPower™ Matrix Switcher/Controller Systems. The keyboard features color-coded elastomeric keys that have a true tactile feel. There are dedicated keys for selecting matrix and DigiMux™ units. Cameras, presets, patterns, views and auxiliaries are all easily controlled. All system activities, including tours, salvos and alarms, can be controlled directly from the keyboard.

The keyboards offer recorder control for VCRs and digital recorders as well as DigiMux control. The keyboard’s vector-solving joystick provides onehanded control of the selected fixed or variable-speed pan/tilt or dome. The ControlCenter 300 also has twist-to-zoom control of motorized lenses.

With either model users can select for both ADnet (RS-485) control of MegaPower LT and DigiMuxes or RS-232 control for MegaPower 48, 168 and 1024 systems. It has adjustable baud rates to properly match the keyboard to the requirements of the matrix switcher/controller system. In addition, the ControlCenter 200 is an operator keyboard, providing no system or camera programming capabilities, when used on MegaPower 48, 168 and 1024 systems.

Both ControlCenter keyboards support the patentpending DirectSet dome control function. Using this dedicated key, the operator can bring up a menu of dome camera functions and change the setting or they can enter the function number directly to quickly change the setting (ex. change from day mode to night mode).
