IntuiKey Keyboard
The IntuiKey KBD-Universal is a full function keyboard
used for control and programming of the Allegiant
Series matrix switchers. Backlit LCD screens provide
multi-language display of softkey menus and status
information. Integral variable speed joystick and zoom
lens controls are standard for operating fixed or
variable speed pan/tilt/zoom equipped cameras. In
addition to the Allegiant Series, the KBD- Universal
model IntuiKey can be used to simultaneously control
Divar Series DVRs, and System4 Series multiplexers.
The optional PC-based IntuiKey Script Application
software package can be used to define softkeys that
are used to activate Allegiant system Command
Scripts.
The optional KBD-RACK rack-mounting kit is designed
to provide vertical, horizontal, or 45 degree inclined
mounting into standard EIA 48 cm (19 in.) rack.
Refer to the IntuiKey Series data sheet for complete
specifications.
