General description

PPRP-4055 console is a 1U rack-mountable module easily convertible into a desktop one.

PPRP-4055 frontal panel

 

The frontal panel hosts ten buttons for video-audio mixer/processor(s) management and four buttons for GPI command lines:

  • IN1…IN6 – select an input for the PGM bus of a mixer/processor. The actual transition is performed in a preprogrammed way (CUT, MIX or V)
  • LOGO – logo insertion ON/OFF. A mixer/processor must be preconfigured to enable logo generator (LOGO PRG ON/OFF set to ON) at the mixer/processor's PGM output
  • LINE – preselected instance of a scrolling text insertion ON/OFF. A mixer/processor must be preconfigured to enable logo generator (LOGO PRG ON/OFF set to ON) at the mixer/processor's PGM output
  • DSK – DSK signal ON/OFF at the PGM bus
  • CONFIRM – an auxiliary button used to prevent operator's erroneous actions (if a protected mode is enabled) and for PPRP-4055 console's RS-485 network configuration
  • RESET – resets to factory default settings
  • GPI1…GPI4 – GPI line control and status display

The rear panel hosts:

  • +5V power supply connector
  • combined RS-232/RS-485 interface connector labeled RS-232
  • RS-485 network connector
  • four GPI line connectors
  • OPTION preset switch

PPRP-4055 connects to a controlled device by either RS-232 or RS-485 links.

Two RS-485 network topologies are available: the "bus" (fig.2a) and "hub" (fig.2b). In the latter case the HUB concentrator is needed. Each networked device is assigned it's own address and uses the "PROFITT"'s proprietary protocol.
