Control Surface Installation
Control Surfaces
• Kayenne and Karrera Control Panels support an optional external Menu Panel, included
in this section.
• GV Korona Control Panels have a built-in multi-touch menu.
Kayenne Control Surfaces
A typical Kayenne control surface has a modular Control Panel, a Menu Panel, and is driven
by a Panel Control Unit (PCU) frame. Additional Menu Panels and Satellite Panels are
available as options.
A Control Panel consists of system operation modules, which mount into trays, which are in
turn held in place by a Control Panel support structure. One Control Panel tray filled with
modules is called a Stripe. Various numbers and types of modules and trays can be
combined to create a wide variety of control surface functionality.
The Control Panel and Menu Panel’s processing electronics are located in the PCU. The
Stripes and Menu Panels are connected to the PCU via multi-pin cables that carry power
and communication signals.
Kayenne Control Panels ship to the customer as boxed Stripes, which are assembled with
the support structure on site. You will need to know what Control Panel configuration(s)
you intend to use at your facility in order to plan your installation effectively.
The Kayenne Control Panel support kit uses 30mm series components sourced from Bosch
Rexroth.
Control Panel and Support Structure Assembly
If you purchased commissioning with your Grass Valley switcher system, assembly of the
Control Panel support is included as part of the commissioning.
If yo
u did not purchase commissioning, but would like to reconsider the option, contact
Grass Valley Customer Support.
Control Panel Variations
Seven basic Control Panel assemblies are considered standard: 4-M/E 35, 4-M/E 25, 3-M/E
35, 3-M/E 25, 2-M/E 35, 2-M/E 25, and 1-M/E 15. Each assembly name identifies the number
of M/Es present and the number of source selector buttons in each M/E.
Two Control Panel Assembly orientations are possible, flat and curved. The curved panel
provides improved operator ergonomics. This orientation raises the Control Panel height,
so visibility of a monitor wall should be considered prior to installation.
