Quartz panels
The Quartz Electronics CP3201 - S7 Remote Panel may be used to switch signal sources to the
switcher auxiliary outputs from a location remote from the switcher control panel.
Note.
The Quartz Remote Panel used MUST be the -S7 version which uses an Open Protocol
and is the only Quartz protocol understood by the switcher.
The picture below shows the Quartz panel button allocation. The rightmost buttons are used to
select the Aux output when one Quartz panel is being used to control more than one Aux output.
The left buttons select which source is allocated to the Aux.
Panel set-up
The Quartz panel has an address which is used to determine which Aux output is controlled by the
panel. The address is set by card-edge switches located to the right rear of the main board.
Depending on manufacture date there will be a 4 way DIP switch and either one or two rotary HEX
switches. Where there are two rotary switches they set the address, the left one sets the high byte
and the right one the low byte. Where there is only one rotary switch the high byte (bits 4 & 5) is
set by switches 3 & 4 of the DIP switch.
The high byte should be set for the address range 10H to 1FH, this is position 1 for the rotary
control or DIP 3 & 4 up. The (other) rotary switch then sets the address within this range, where
addresses 0 to 7 select Aux outputs 1 to 8 respectively and address 8 allows the panel to control all
available Aux outputs.
The remaining two DIP switches should be set to - DIP 1 = UP, DIP 2 = down.
The computer interface board CI-0003 (fitted as standard to the CP3200 -S7 panel) has a link to
select the communications protocol to RS232 or RS422. This link should be set to RS422. The
RS422 position is identified by a “4” (the RS232 position by a “2”).
Switcher set-up for Quartz panels
The switcher serial port to which the Quartz panel is connected must be set to “Aux Ctrl Quartz”.
Connecting the panels to the switcher
There are three methods of switching the Aux sources –
1.
A panel connected to one switcher mainframe serial port to control all available Aux
outputs.
2.
A panel connected to a switcher mainframe port for each Aux output to be controlled.
3.
Up to eight panels connected to one switcher mainframe port to control all available Aux
outputs on a one panel per Aux output. This method requires some simple interface
equipment being made, see below.
