DESCRIPTION
The KBD4000V Genex
®
Multiplexer Keyboard is a full-function keyboard controller for the
Genex MX4000 Multiplexer and the Genex MX4000SVR Multiplexer Server. The inclusion
of a 5-inch (12.7 cm) diagonal LCD color monitor creates a complete, stand-alone control
and viewing package. A built-in tilt stand adds an additional 20 degrees to the standard
viewing angle for the keyboard’s monitor.
The keyboard comes with a KBD4000V Interface, a communication block that combines
data, video, and power for delivery to the keyboard.
This manual covers the KBD4000V keyboard’s operation with the duplex and simplex
models of the multiplexer. The differences, as they pertain to the keyboard, will be indicated
in the text and art wherever necessary.
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 features a three-axis joystick and additional keys for full
control of fixed speed and variable speed pan, tilt, and lens functions. The keyboard can
also operate presets, auxiliaries, and patterns and can be used to program the multiplexer
or server.
