| The
model CP-50RM Universal Controller is a low-cost, 2RU single-machine controller designed
for applications that don't require the multi-machine capability of the HSE-200. It is intended for any application that requires a high-quality,
low cost vtr/ddr controller. It is well-suited for Non-linear Edit Rooms, Graphics
Workstations, On-Air or Presentation Playback, Dub Facilities, or Transmission or
quality-control positions. The CP-50RM shares the highest quality, reliability, and
solid feel of the larger controllers. The ultra-smooth transport control and
quick, reliable response is identical to that of the HSE-200. |

TBC and Audio Level Control is done using the same RS-422
link that provides transport control. This control mode is supported by almost all
digital vtrs (Digi-betacam, IMX, DVC Pro, etc.), and can be used with analog machines such
as BVW-75s by using our AIF-422 TBC Control adapter.
Another feature of the CP-50RM is an external control
port. This allows the CP-50RM to 'pass through' control from another device,
such as an Avid or other non-linear edit system. In this configuration, control of
the vtr may by instantly delegated to either the CP-50RM panel, or the external
system. Two or more panels may also be 'daisy-chained' to allow control from
several locations.
The external control port may be configured as either
RS-422 or RS-232. In the RS-232 mode, it connects directly to PC-based edit systems
or graphics workstations, avoiding the need for an external converter. This
controller is also available in a desktop version, the CP-50. |
