    Four supplied jumper boards permit the support of any lens assembly requiring an input voltage in the range of +/-2.5 to +/- 12 VDC. Thus a single CNXFZ with its four jumpers can control nearly any lens in the industry. Refer to the table below for exact voltage outputs for each jumper board.
  • Page 6: Physical Description

    Physical Description The CNXFZ, shown below, is housed in a black enclosure with a silk-screened front label. All electrical connections, except for the network (NET), are made to the front panel. Also on the front panel, there are three LEDs and five buttons. All of these front panel features are discussed in subsequent paragraphs.
  • Page 7 Crestron CNXFZ CNXFZ Ports A number of ports bearing silk-screened labels are located on the CNXFZ. Refer to the illustration and descriptions after this paragraph. CNXFZ Front Panel This 6-pin, 6-position RJ11 modular jack is used to connect the CNXFZ to the control system.

    Crestron CNXFZ Windows program. The NET ID of each CNXFZ has been factory set to 40, but may be changed from the PC via VT Pro or SIMPL Windows. The method for changing the unit’s NET ID is identical regardless of the software chosen.
  • Page 14: How The Program Works

    How the Program Works A basic CNXFZ SIMPL program is shown on the next page in block diagram form. For this example, the SIMPL Windows program controls the CNXFZ through the use of nine analog signals.

    CNXFZ. Two position drive signals, FOC_SET and ZOOM_SET, are used to instruct the CNXFZ to drive the camera to a preset position. Anytime the analog level on one of these drive signals change, the CNXFZ adjusts the corresponding focus/zoom lens position until the feedback matches the level at the programmed output.

  • Page 17 Detail View of the Analog Signals for the CT-3000 in SIMPL Windows’ Programming Manager Also from the Network Modules folder, double click on the CNXFZ and the Port A: CNXFZ Lens Controller Driver icons for a detail view (alternatively CTRL+D or drag and drop into Detail View).
  • Page 18 Focus/Zoom Control Interface Detail View of the Signals for the CNXFZ in SIMPL Windows’ Programming Manager Two logic symbols are necessary for this SIMPL Windows program. They must be added from Logic Symbols folder (Symbol Library) in the Programming Manager workspace.
  • Page 19: Application For An Alternate Method Of Control

    This alternate method of control utilizes the VT-3500 and a program for the CNMSX-PRO using the CNXFZ network control module. This example program actually offers two methods of control in one program. In CNXFZ.VTP, there are two pages (Main with buttons and Main with slider). Each represents a different user implementation.

    Without feedback, lens presets cannot be achieved in rate mode. Some lenses can switch between rate and position mode; the CNXFZ provides the appropriate connections to facilitate this. This type of lens can achieve presets without feedback.
