4 6700series control panel 1 Introduction The 6700 series of 1U control panels are designed to operate with all current Pro-Bel control systems. The basic 6700 hardware platform is used to provide a wide range of panel types including button per crosspoint (BPX) and multi-destination panels (X-Y). The compact design allows for as many as 54 buttons, allowing for example a 48 way, four level control panel or a split design with two four level 16 way sections in one panel. The features provided are: Support for all current Pro-Bel controllers including System 2, System 3, TM, and Gemini Full breakaway of audio and video Selectable tally colour Adjustable brightness for electro-luminescent back light Eight joystick overrides Dual RS485 ports for multi-drop connection Built in diagnostics The button legend strip is easily fitted by sliding a laser printed transparency behind the panel display membrane. The unit is powered from a single 5V power supply housed in a cradle attached at the rear of the panel. The cradle is detachable allowing the PSU to be placed elsewhere if installation space is limited. HU

5 2 Panel types The 6700 series This comprehensive range of panels covers the requirements for button panels and, with some systems, provides multibus and limited X-Y capability. The following drawings detail the five panels types in the range. In addition, the 6708 panel is shown when used as an Aurora/System 3 status display control panel Level 1 Level 3 Level 2 Level 4 The way, four level panel Level 1 Level Level 2 Level 4 The way, four level panel Level 1 Level Level 2 Level 4 The way, four level panel Level 1 Level 3 Level 2 Level 4 The 6707 dual 16 way, four level panel Level 1 Level Level 2 Level 4 The x12 X-Y, four level panel Issue 3 5

8 Panel lock and destination protect In some panel modes the buttons at the far right hand side of the panel are reserved for panel lock and destination protect. The padlock and key symbols associated with these functions are invisible until lit. Level 1 Level 3 Panel Lock Level 2 Level 4 Protect Panel lock Panel lock prevents the panel from changing cross points while still allowing the tally to indicate the source currently selected. This protects the panel from inadvertent operation. Destination protect The protect button assigns protected status to the destination currently associated with the panel. This prevents any panel on the system from making selections to the protected destination. HU

12 Installing the power supply The 6700 series of control panels are powered by a 5V d.c. PSU which may be fitted within a carrier frame, or cradle, screwed to the rear of the panel. The power supply cradle Insert PSU in frame If there is insufficient space for the PSU cradle, it may be removed, and the PSU can then be mounted as required. To assist this, the PSU is supplied with a 1metre cable. cradle +5V connector Remove screws (4) marked to release cradle HU

13 Earthing the panel The control panel may be earthed using the rear earthing terminal if desired. This may be useful where policy dictates cable earthing and where panels are fitted to wooden desks.

17 As it is possible to connect panels to all Pro-Bel controllers, it is necessary to assign panels to a controller type. This is done using the first two levers of the panel mode switch as follows:- Panel Mode Switch No Function 1 2 OFF System 3 and Freeway ON TM and System 2 OFF Normal Operation ON Gemini Setting the panel address The address switch is used to set the multi-drop address of the panel. Any address in the hexadecimal range 0 to F may be selected using the rotary control provided, and should match the one set for the panel in the control system. Panel address switch Issue 3 17

18 Setting the override input mode The override input mode is set by switch 3. Override Input Mode Switch 3 Position Function OFF ON Normal Override Operation Remote Button Mimic Operation Normal override operation This mode provides the normal joystick override operation where, when the input is grounded, the source/level assigned to that input is routed and when released the previously routed source is restored. If more than one joystick override input is active, the lowest number joystick override has priority - number 1 has highest priority, number 8 has lowest priority. Remote button mimic operation This mode provides a way of remotely selecting one of the first eight buttons on the panel. When the input is grounded, the panel operates just like pushing one of the buttons on the panel. When the input is released it is just like taking your finger off the button. Input 1 mimics button 1 through to input 8 that mimics button 8. As this mode behaves like pressing buttons, the router levels it operates on, is dependent on how the control system is setup (controlled levels, levels active, source and destination associations etc).

26 5 Panel self tests Any panel in the 6700 series will enter a self test mode if no data is received for one second. Normal operation will be resumed once data recommences. Whenever data is not received by the panel, various self test modes may be entered by simultaneously pressing the enable and one of the mode buttons Level 1 Level Level 2 Level 4 Note: On entering self-test, the panel reverts to mode 1 Mode 1: button and LED test Cyclic LED test. All LEDs relevant to the panel type selected illuminate in turn according to the chosen tally colour. Pressing a button cancels the cyclic LED test and flashes that button s LED. After a short time the panel will return to the cyclic LED test. Mode 2: all colour LED test A rapid cyclic LED test is performed illuminating each LED with all available colours Pressing a single button has no effect HU

27 Mode 3: serial port and driver test Data transmitted Level 1 Level Level 2 Level 4 Data received Pairs of data transmitted and received LEDs sequence across the panel from left to right. Buttons at the top illuminate green to indicate data transmitted. The corresponding button on the bottom row indicates data received status. Failure is displayed as red and success as green. Note;-In order for the test to function correctly, a 9 way loopback connector is fitted to the RS485 port. For serial loop back: Connect pin 2 to 8 Connect pin 3 to 7 If there are a significant number of failures this mode is exited and the panel reverts to mode 1. Issue 3 27

28 Mode 4: processor and rotary switch test Level 1 Level Level 2 Level 4 The first three LEDs on the upper button row indicate EPROM sumcheck, internal processor ram test and external processor ram test. Green illumination indicates success and red indicates failure. LEDs 4 to 8 on the upper button row indicates the version of software fitted in the panel. The first eight LEDs on the bottom row are used to indicate the panel address and EL/Tally switch positions as binary values. Red is ON and green is OFF. Panel address is indicated as a binary value by the status of the address 8,4,2,1 LEDs. Red indicates ON(1), green is OFF(0). Similarly, the EL/Tally switch setting is indicated, as a binary value, by the status of the EL/Tally 8, 4, 2, 1 LEDs. For example, panel address 1 is displayed by the address indicators 8,4,2,1 as green, green, green, red. Blue, blue, blue, red for EL/Tally 8, 4, 2, 1 would indicate switch position 1. HU

29 Mode 5: mode switch/joystick overrides Level Level Level 2 Level 4 The panel mode switch position is indicated by the status of the Panel Mode LEDs 1-8. Amber indicates 1 (ON) and blue 0 (OFF). The joystick overrides are indicated by the status of the Override LEDs 1-8. Red indicates 1 (ON-override active) and green 0 (OFF). Issue 3 29
