Auxiliary Control Panels
An auxiliary control panel provides an extra row of
source buttons that can be assigned to an aux bus. This
single row of buttons can be used to select sources on
the aux output, or to visually follow what is selected on
an aux bus.
The switcher supports the V-053B, the V-159 series, and
AP-AUX2RU series of auxiliary control panels.
AP-AUX2RU Series Auxiliary Control
Panels
The V-159 series and AP-AUX2RU series of auxiliary
control panels are available in various sizes to match the
number of source buttons on your control panel. The
panels can be installed either on the back of the control
panel or into the desk. The V-159 auxiliary control panel
can also be installed into a 19-inch rack frame.
