These new push-button panels are an alternative to keyboard switch commands when users must interact quickly between active sources and multiple switch commands must be activated simultaneously. Within the configuration setup, users can easily create multi-action commands (macros) with a single push-button command. Additionally, each programmable button can be assigned a specific color with user-specific text. Up to eight actions can be assigned to each button. Workstation operators no longer have to memorize keyboard sequence commands in situations where there are multiple source and destination feeds to manage.
The USP3 can be configured to control one IHSE matrix at a specified IP address. The GUI home screen shows the currently viewed destination (console) number, the destination name, the source feeding the destination, and the current mode. From there users can choose up to 15 predefined “Take” options or choose the “Destination Select” option to view another destination. Additionally, users can manually select “Source” or “Mode” keys.
Housed in a 1-RU chassis, the USP3-8-IHSE offers up to eight programmable buttons and a 100BaseT network connection. The USP3-8D-IHSE is housed in a low-profile enclosure that is attractively styled to fit on the desktop. The USP3-8-IHSE push-button panel supports redundant power and includes an internal web-page control menu for configuration and setup.
