Introducing Videohub Controllers

Videohub Master Control
Videohub Master Control is a rack-mountable control panel with 30 backlit pushbuttons, LCD, scroll wheel
and Ethernet connectivity designed to perform Videohub crosspoint switching without using a computer.
Videohub Master Control can control all sources and destinations for any size of Videohub router, as well as
RS-422 deck control.
Videohub Master Control uses port labels to aid in fast selection of equipment using software. 15 buttons
can be configured and labeled to provide fast selection of common equipment types, e.g., cameras, decks
and monitors. It also includes a loop through Ethernet port for connecting to additional control panels,
Videohub routers or other network devices.
Only 1 rack unit high and less than an inch thick, you can rack-mount Videohub Master Control at the front
or at the rear of the rack to leave space for other equipment.
Videohub Smart Control
Videohub Smart Control is a rack-mountable control panel with 40 backlit pushbuttons and Ethernet
connectivity, which works with all models of Videohub. It can be configured to work with one or many
SDI destination devices. Once configured for your SDI equipment and Videohub router, Videohub Smart
Control no longer requires a computer and can immediately change SDI routes as desired.
When configured for a single SDI destination, such as a monitor or deck, the pushbuttons can instantly
switch between 40 different SDI sources on the same Videohub router. When configured for multiple SDI
destinations, destination buttons become gold, source buttons become white and the lower right button
can be configured as a take button and illuminates red. Macro buttons illuminate green when enabled and
each one can be configured to perform up to 16 simultaneous crosspoint switches.
Only 1 rack unit high and less than an inch thick, you can rack-mount Videohub Smart Control at the front
or at the rear of the rack to leave space for other equipment. If you don't have a rack, then you can leave it
in a safe place on the floor!
GPI and Tally Interface
GPI and Tally Interface is a low cost alternative for multi-camera productions where a Camera Control Unit
(CCU) operator needs to switch video from one of several cameras being controlled to a single monitor.
It features 8 configurable GPIs and 8 configurable GPOs. The GPIs send commands to your Videohub by
ethernet to switch the selected camera to the operator's monitor under certain crosspoint conditions. The
GPOs send a tally signal to your cameras or other devices under certain crosspoint conditions.
