Description
Functional Description
The CPC-2000A is a 5.7 inch (14.5 cm) passive matrix color LCD touchscreen
control panel with dual joystick control and adjustable speed knobs for the remote
control system (herein referred to as the control system). As part of the Crestron
ProCam family which includes pan/tilt heads, a camera control network is formed.
The network can accept up to 250 separate cameras - or other controlled devices - at
distances up to 5000 feet without expansion modules. This unique camera control
network also allows the option of additional or alternative controllers, such as
Crestron touchpanels, PC-based control software, and button panel consolettes.
When included in a camera control network with proper programming, the
CPC-2000A permits control of camera pan/tilt and lens zoom/focus with speed
adjustments. Presets that store the pan/tilt/zoom/focus positions are allowed.
Software
The CPC-2000A has one 256-color
p
alette. Therefore, all custom colors
are mapped to the nearest color in
that palette, such that colors from
the custom color dialog box may not
be exactly represented. If the precise
shade is not immediately achieved,
the solution is to experiment with a
slightly different color from the
custom color dialog box in VT
Pro-e.
VisionTools™ Pro-e (VT Pro-e), a Windows-based design software, permits the
creation of unlimited control screen variations incorporating two and three-
dimensional graphics and text. A set of pages which make up a project can be
designed for each CPC-2000A application. Each page contains objects such as
custom control graphics, two and three-dimensional buttons, sliders, and digital
readouts which allow the user to interface with the control system. The project is
uploaded to the touchpanel and programmed into the flash PROM. The touchpanel
uses the programmed project until another set is uploaded from the PC. The PC may
be disconnected from the rack or panel, except during reprogramming. VT Pro-e
also allows users the option to generate projects destined for web browsers rather
than for physical touchpanels. For additional software information, consult the VT
Pro-e help file.
