Button control panels

 

Rotronics have developed a series of general purpose control panels for broadcast use.


24 Button panel (R0541)

The 24 button panel is a low profile 1RU design with loop through RS422 serial panel connection, designed with flexibility in mind.

The buttons are high quality production desk RGB types and can be programmed for different colours to display status information.

The panel is 55mm deep with a clip on designation strip for temporary button identification labels, alternatively the buttons used can have the caps removed and more permanent clear printed labels fitted.

 

In addition to the 24 buttons, the panels have 8 GPI connections and 8 GPO connections for interface to ancillary equipment. These inputs / outputs are not isolated.

 


54 Button panel (R0580)

 

The 54 button panel is designed as a drop in replacement for the popular Probel / Snell 6706 control panels that are no longer in production, it will work with Aurora systems.

 

It has been tested working on multi-drop chains with existing ProBel panels.

 

Uniquely, whilst the front panel is a layered membrane type, the switches are a conventional oval design, with blue illumination and a reliable click action.

This allows the area between the switches to be configured as a built in designation strip so that printed labels can be slid into the gap between the switches and be protected by the plastic laminate.

 

The switch illumination is adjustable on the rear of the panel with switches.

Both foreground and background light levels are settable to suit the control room conditions.

 

The rear of the panel also has a 'Hex' switch to allow up to 16 multi-drop addresses to be selected.

The panels have 8 GPI connections and 8 GPO connections for interface to ancillary equipment. These inputs / outputs are not isolated.
