Jupiter Control
Panel LD16
FULL-FUNCTION X-Y PANEL
Visible status across up to 16
destinations and control of up to 96
levels make the LD16 panel the choice
for applications requiring maximum
control.
PRODUCT DATA SHEET
The Jupiter™ LD16 router control panel
is a status-rich full-function panel
supporting 16 simultaneous destinations
and control of up to 96 levels.
This panel stands out in two main
roles. Firstly, it functions as a multidestination panel allowing quick access
and simultaneous status across the 16
displays. Secondly, this panel is highly
optimized for controlling breakaways
with control over 96 levels and visible
status on 16 of them at a time. You can
switch back and forth between both roles
seamlessly.
Whether you need simultaneous visibility
across a large number of destinations or
the ultimate in breakaway control, the
LD16 is your panel.

Straightforward and Logical X-Y
Entry for Error-Free Control of
Multiple Destinations
The LD16 panel supports X-Y source
and destination entry using its numeric
category entry keypad-style button
layout. This is a familiar layout for
operators. Changing destinations is quick
and easy by pressing the destinations
command button and choosing the
desired destination. Category entr y
simplifies typing while a scroll function
using up/down buttons allows you to
browse through the available options.
Once a destination has been assigned
to a display window it can be rapidly
accessed again for rerouting. Selecting a
source is elegant and efficient by using
either the category entry buttons or
the sources command button and then
choosing the desired destination.

High-Resolution Display with
Color Coding for Razor-Sharp
Operation
The LD16 panel has color-coded
illuminated buttons and three colorcoded high-resolution displays. Any
source or destination can use up to eight
characters which is an ideal balance
between giving enough information while
being able to quickly scan the display. The
display shows the selected destination
in yellow and its current source in green
and while making a selection it also
displays the preset source. The display
also carries various status information
keeping the user fully informed. If a
destination is locked, the source name
color will change to red, and if protected,
the source name color will change to
magenta. The display will even tell you
which control panel owns the lock/
protect function.

PRODUCT DATA SHEET
Individual Control of 96 Levels Supports the Most
Complex Multiformat Systems
The LD16 panel not only allows you to select or deselect levels
for breakaways but it can also show you detailed status on 96
of them. When routing involves a large number of complex
breakaways or needs to control a deeper number of levels then,
the LD16 is the perfect panel to use.
Function-Per-Button for Fast, Expert-Level
Comprehensive Control
The LD16 panel has all the power you’ll need with 20
categories, a numeric keypad, dedicated sequence buttons,
and up/down scrolling. There is even an undo button that can
toggle back to the last entry allowing not only a rapid undo but
a continuous A-B switch for quality check or content verification
purposes.
