1-4. Constituent Devices of Routing Switcher System
The routing switcher system consists of the following four types of equipment.
.....
Routing switcher controller (HKSP-R80)
It controls the signal switching for the routing switcher in accordance with the commands from the host
controller (such as host computer) and remote control panel.
.....
Routing switcher (IXS, HDS, DVS, BVS series)
The switcher with a built-in controller and the one without it are available.
The built-in controller type switches signals according to the command from the controller (such as
host computer) and the remote control panel. The routing switcher without a built-in controller (such as
a secondary station) switches signals by following the commands from the controller. Varied switchers
are available for different types of signals such as serial digital video, digital audio, time code, RS-
422A, etc.
.....
Routing switcher control unit (Remote control panel) (BKS-R series)
It is used to switch signals and to display the name of the selected signal. It is sometimes simply called
as “remote control panel”.
.....
