Trigger, Control, Integrate and Interface

Able to perform powerful actions without the need to invest in a system controller, universal control systems can quickly and cost-effectively plug in to any infrastructure or workflow, allowing you to:

  • Bridge systems to achieve that key bit of functionality required without performing any programming.
  • Adapt and extend systems as control requirements change.
  • Avoid being locked in to expensive and complex control solutions.
  • Give operators the controls they need over the devices they use.
  • Maintain the value of existing investments by interfacing between old and new equipment.

IP Control Buddy

The IP Control Buddy is a complete control solution that fits in the palm of your hand. It is perfect for flyaway kits, small production tasks and one button applications to simultaneously control multiple devices.

  • Controls any GPI/O, Serial, IP enabled device, located anywhere, from a single button push.
  • Directly control other devices, such as Ensemble Designs’ ultra-compact BrightEye NXT routers, Blackmagic Media Players and Power Distribution Systems.
  • Trigger a salvo of actions such as: Turn a GPI Output On or Off Transmit a Serial Command Transmit an Ethernet TCP, UDP, SNMP, or HTTP command

Universal Control Switches

Providing a streamlined user interface, single panel monitoring and control of multiple devices, the USP3 panels are ideal for when users must interact quickly between active sources and when multiple switch commands must be activated simultaneously.

  • Show users only the device or system information, status and tallies they need in order to react quickly and accurately to any situation.
  • Give users control over only those functions they need to simplify operations and reduce errors.
  • Monitor and Control multiple devices from a single panel.
  • Easily create multi-action commands (macros) with a single push-button command.
