This subsection only applies to Cheetah Series systems that are equipped with
3500 Series card(s)/module(s).
7.4.1
System Control Overview
The 3500 Series System Controller is full-featured, microprocessor-based unit that is designed to
interface with various configurations of
PESA Switching Systems, Inc.
video and audio routing
switchers. The 3500 Series System Controller, working in conjunction with the 3500 Series
Control System software, provides a Graphic User Interface (GUI) that enables users to configure
and operate a routing switcher system from a standard IBM-compatible Personal Computer (PC)
that has the following minimum requirements:
•
Processor: 500 MHz or above
•
Memory: 128 MB of RAM or more
•
Monitor: 800X600 SVGA or better
•
Serial Port: One serial port available from COM1 through COM4 available for CPU Link
use (Minimum of a 16550 UART preferred.)
•
Hard Disk: 100 MB of available space
•
Operating System: Microsoft
®
Windows
®
NT
™
4.0, Microsoft Windows
2000/Professional, or Microsoft Windows XP (Home and Pro)
Both the 3500 Series System Controller and the 3500 Series Control System software are
inherently flexible and easily configured. The 3500 Series LE software has a smaller feature set
and is designed for smaller systems.
This subsection addresses the initial user communication setup, the onboard firmware
configuration, and initial settings for the specific Cheetah Series chassis system(s) that will be
placed in service. Additional reference materials for this section are included in the following
