#240 

– Rack Rails: 

Sliding rack rails for the standard workstation, included in the Premium Workstation. 

 
#150 

– Multi-System Control: 

Software to allow 2 Slate systems to connect to 1 32x32 Router. This 

option is ideal for controlling multiple outputs with common external inputs, i.e. a webcast and a record 
feed. Option requires approval from Broadcast Pix. 

  
 
#160 

– Inscriber CG: 

Add another license of the Inscriber TitleMotion Pro software to any PC 

workstation to share graphic creation duties across your facility, without tying up the main switcher 
workstation. This option requires an additional PC provided by the user. 
 

#172 Fluent Rapid CG: 

 to connects on-air CG to a database, 

and/or to streamline CG graphic creation. A separate datasheet  
is available on Fluent Rapid CG.  Also integrates with a Daktronics 
scoreboard controller, by using a Daktronics accessory called 
an All Sports CG.   The Broadcast Pix system connects to the  
All Sports CG with a serial connection. 
  
 
 
 
 

#10 

– Another 1 M/E Control Panel: 

Add another physical control panel for redundancy or a secondary 

operator.  
 
 

#5 

– Custom Keyboard: 

Upgrades the standard keyboard to  

custom Broadcast Pix USB keyboard with color-coded keys.  
Adds another control point for either back-up or use  
in smaller productions for basic switching. 

 

 
 
 

#823 

– External Server Control: 

Control a 360 Systems or Harris Nexio server through VDCP. Control 

up to three channels of clip stores directly from the control panel, with clip names appearing directly on 
the PixButtons of the PixPad. This option includes a 4 port Edgeport serial extender to control the server. 
 

#788 VOX Voice-Automation:  

1 RU box with 8 audio inputs and software.   VOX box connects the 

Broadcast Pix systems with a serial connection.  VOX box detects active microphones and then fires off 
an appropriate Fluent-Macro.   See the 4 page VOX datasheet for more and specifics, including a wiring 
diagram.
