2.5 RMC-280 Remote Controller
The RMC-280 is a cost effective remote controller designed specifically for the TVS-2000A
Virtual Studio System. The RMC-280 interfaces with the TVS-2000A Virtual Studio System via
an RS-232 interface. The RMC-280 gives the user switcher-style control of the TVS-2000A
Virtual Studio System. There are several effects that the user can also control on the RMC-280,
such as downstream keyers (DSK) and transition effects. In addition, the T-Bar gives the user
the convenience to perform transitions between Preview (PVW) and Program (PGM).
