    Remote Control Panel bus, or simply the RCP bus. Remote panels using the RCP bus, such as the suite of Cheetah RCP panels, can communicate with the PERC3000 controller using the optionally available RCP Panel Server peripheral. Ethernet panels such as the Smart 32 can communicate directly with the PERC3000 controller.

    Note that he Smart 32 will not allow a zero to be configured for the IP, Netmask, or Gateway. If at any time you wish to change the IP address of a Smart 32 panel, change the address data through the Cattrax panel configuration pages and re-load the controller configuration file.

    Level Include Lists: Level Include lists are created through a Cattrax configuration page and allow you to assign the switching levels that a Smart 32 panel is allowed to control. Each is a named list that may contain any or all of the system switching levels. A level list is associated to a control panel through the Panels Configuration page.

    By default the panel name given to every system resource during configuration of that resource is the text label that is displayed by the Smart 32 panel key. For example, refer to the grid in Figure 4-5 and look at the row for Source #1. The Panel Name is FS 1, and is the label entered during source group configuration for display on remote control panels.

    UTTON OLORS PESA’s Touch 72 and Smart 32 panels use a factory default, system-wide backlight color scheme for the front panel pushbutton keys that quickly identify the system resource type assigned to each key by the background color – regardless of which panel you are using. If desired, you may select the background color used for key type identification by system resource on a system-wide basis through the Button Colors configuration page.

  • Page 23: Introduction To Pesa' S Switching Methodology

    WITCHING ETHODOLOGY In order to get the greatest functionality from any PESA control panel, there are a few basics of the router system architecture and control methods you need to be familiar with. For this discussion, assume a router installation in a production facility with multiple signal sources of SDI video and analog stereo audio which we need to route to multiple destinations.

  • Page 24: Switching Methods

    EVELS WITCH All-Levels or Audio-Follow-Video (AFV) is the power-on default switching method for the Smart 32 panel, and is the active switching method when the status message All Levels is displayed on the Level display line of the status display screen or when none of the pushbutton keys assigned to a level are lit.

  • Page 25: Breakaway Switch

    Using devices NET1 and VTR1 introduced in Paragraph 4.8 for this example, with an AFV switch whenever we select the destination button on a Smart 32 panel assigned to VTR1, and specify NET1 as the source selection to route to the destination, we will route signals assigned to all switching levels defined for NET1 to physical outputs defined for switching levels of VTR1.

  • Page 26: Destination Status

    PESA routers are destination oriented, meaning that switches are made by first selecting the destination group you want the panel to control and then selecting the source group you want to route to the destination outputs. Default operation for a Smart 32 panel on power-up or reset is All Levels. Proprietary Information of PESA...
