CP300 Joystick Override

Designed to give joystick override function to Grass Valley/Thomson/Philips/BTS routing matrixes control panels. This kit has proved unsurpassed reliability, with units sold worldwide

Function

In many applications it is necessary to control an output of a routing switcher via an external source, particularly from camera joysticks (OCP’s) for “joystick override”or from an edit controller for recorded delegation.

Previously, there has been no simple, parallel interface for the current range of Thomson routing switchers. With the introduction of this product a CP300 or CP330 (24 or 48 x 1 matrix control panel) may be retrofitted to allow simple contact closure control of the output bus associated with that panel. This modification kit also includes the advantage of an internal mains power supply to allow the control panel to be powered directly from a 85 to 264V,47 to 440Hz source (fully automatic) via a standard IEC connector.

Features:

  • Field upgradeable
  • No modification to existing internal Thomson cards or software
  • Switchable between:
    • -“Joystick mode”
    • -selection returns to original when remote closure is removed
    • -“Remote mode”-selection latches to that selected by remote closure
  • Simple remote control via closure to ground.
  • Optically isolated remote inputs (5V, 10mA)
  • Unit remains low profile (100mm deep excluding connectors)
  • Available as a mains only modification without remote control
  • Internal, wide tolerance mains power supply
