Control Surfaces
Introduction
A Kayenne XL Control Surface has a modular Control Panel, a Local Aux
Panel, a Menu Panel, and a Panel Control Unit (PCU) frame. Additional
Touch Screen 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 Touch Screen Menu Panel’s processing electronics
are located in the Panel Control Unit. These devices cannot operate inde-
pendently. Multi-pin cables carry power and communications to these
units.
Kayenne XL Packages ship to the customer as boxed components which are
assembled on site. You will need to know what control panel configura-
tion(s) you intend to use at your facility in order to plan your installation
effectively.
Control Panel Assembly
Seven basic Control Panel assemblies are considered standard: 4-ME 25 or
35 button, 3-ME 25 or 35, 2-ME 25 or 35, and 1-ME 15. Each assembly name
identifies the number of MEs present and the number of source selector
buttons in each ME. Kayak HD switchers include an additional half ME
option that does not have separate dedicated hardware. The half ME func-
tions are assigned to one of the existing Control Panel MEs.
