General
Event Master controllers are dedicated hardware consoles specifically designed to support the Event Master series processors,
devices, and systems created from several of them. They run the Event Master Toolset Software (EMTS) and the EC-200 on an
industrial operating system with optimized hardware. They include tactile operation style with buttons and touch screen displays,
allowing for easy and direct control of the Event Master series processors..
There are three models of Event Master controller:
• EC-30 (compact controller).
• EC-50 (small controller).
• EC-200 (large controller).
The EC-30 is the most compact version of the EC-series Event Master controllers. As an extension of the EMTS, the EC-30 provides
essential selections for sources, presets, layers, and destinations. The EC-30 connects as a USB peripheral to an existing Event
Master control computer.
The EC-50 is a wing concept, or an accessory to the EC-200, and it needs either a host computer running the EMTS or an EC-200
controller for full function. The button layout of the EC-50 is identical to the layout found on the left-hand side of the EC-200, and
the buttons have the same functions as the buttons on an EC-200.
The Event Master EC-200 controller is a dedicated hardware console specifically designed to support Event Master series proces-
sors and devices. It runs the EMTS. It can stand alone, or it can support additional external Event Master compatible devices over
network and USB.
