ControlCenter 1100 Keyboard

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 that 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.
