Pelco KBD4000 Full-Function keyboard Controller:
The KBD4000 Keyboard is a full function keyboard controller for the MX4000 Genex(TM) Multiplexer and the MX4000SVR Genex(TM) Multiplexer Server.
There are two modes of operation - multiplexer mode and multiplexer server mode - depending on whether the keyboard is connected to a multiplexer or to a server.
In the multiplexer mode, a single keyboard interfaces up to 16 multiplexers that are daisy-chained together. With 9-channel multiplexers, the keyboard can control up to 144 cameras; with 16-channel multiplexers, up to 256 cameras can be controlled.
In the multiplexer server mode, up to four keyboards can be connected to a server, which interfaces up to eight multiplexers. Up to 72 cameras can be controlled with 9-channel multiplexers or 128 cameras with 16-channel multiplexers.
In addition to performing all the control functions that can be done from the front panel of the multiplexer, the keyboard also features a three-axis joystick and additional keys for full control of fixed-speed and variable-speed pan, tilt, and lens functions.
Under control of the keyboard, cameras can be viewed on the main and spot monitor outputs of the multiplexer. On the main monitor, select full screen or multiple screen (4, 9 or 16) images or picture-in-picture display. Get a closer look with the 2X and 4X zoom feature. Use the spot monitor for control of pan/tilt and zoom functions, and to operate presets, auxiliaries, and patterns. The spot monitor shows a full screen view only and does not have the zoom feature.
When used with a Genex(TM) multiplexer, the KBD4000 keyboard is capable of Coaxitron(R) control of pan, tilt, and lens functions, including setting and calling presets and patterns.(see note on back page)
The keyboard provides two methods of camera addressing. One method allows selection of cameras by entering the multiplexer unit ID (1-16) followed by the desired camera (1-16). The second method allows selection of cameras by entering an incremental camera number (unit 1 = cameras 1-16, unit 2 = cameras 17-32, etc.).
