DESCRIPTION

The KBD300A Universal Keyboard has many operational features (refer to Table A) and can be used in nu­merous operational modes:

CM6700 Mode: Program and operate the CM6700 Matrix Switcher/Controller Unit (SCU). Also control a
Genex® multiplexer from a CM6700. Multiple keyboards can be used in this mode.

CM6800 Mode: Program and operate the CM6800 Matrix Switcher/Controller Unit (SCU). Also control a
Genex multiplexer from a CM6800 SCU. Multiple keyboards can be used in this mode.

Direct P Mode: Control up to 16 receivers connected directly to the keyboard. A separate system, such
as an MS500 or VA6100 Switcher, is needed to route video to the monitor.

NOTE: The KBD300A keyboard can also be used in Direct Mode to program a CM9760-MDA
Master Distribution Amplifier. Refer to the CM9760-MDA manual for details.

NOTE: The KBD300A keyboard has an auto-centering joystick. Be certain the joystick remains in
the neutral (vertical) position as power is applied to the keyboard. Do not move or hold down the
joystick until after the red digit LEDs have finished flashing the firmware revision.

The latest firmware release (version 5.00) allows three additional modes:

CM6700 ASCII Mode: This mode supports the CM6700 matrix auxiliary commands. The F1, F2, and F3
keys control the CM6700-MXB relays that are on the matrix bay. To enable this mode, DIP switch 7 must
be ON and DIP switch 8 must be OFF.

CM6800 ASCII Mode: This mode supports the CM6800 GPI commands. The F1, F2, and F3 keys control
the relays on an REL2064 that is connected to a CM6800 switcher. To enable this mode, DIP switch 7
must be ON and DIP switch 8 must be ON.

Direct D Mode: This mode is similar to the Direct P Protocol, except that the same set of commands is
now sent in Direct D Protocol. To enable Direct D mode, DIP switches 5 and 7 must be ON.

NOTE: You must upgrade your KBD firmware to version 5.00 if the application requires you to
select two-digit monitor numbers.

INSTALLATION – CM6700 MODE

There are two keyboard ports on the CM6700 SCU.

The LOCAL KEYBOARD port is for connecting a single keyboard within a distance of 25 feet (7.6 meters).

The REMOTE KEYBOARD(S) port is for connecting additional remote keyboards.

Connecting a Keyboard to the Local Keyboard Port

Use the data cable that is supplied with the keyboard. Plug one end of the cable into the RJ-45



connector on the rear of the keyboard and the other end into the LOCAL KEYBOARD port on the SCU
(refer to Figure 1). Set the keyboard switches according to the instructions in the
tion. Go to step 2 to install remote keyboards, or go to step 10.

Connecting Keyboards to the Remote Keyboard(s) Port

NOTE:

A KBDKIT or KBDKIT-X is required for this application. The KBDKIT consists of two RJ-45
wall blocks and a 120 VAC to 12 VAC transformer. The KBDKIT-X is for 230 VAC. Use one KBDKIT
for each keyboard.

Refer to Figures 1 and 2 for the following steps.

 Decide on a suitable location for each keyboard and wall block. Keyboards must be within 25 feet (7.6

meters) of the wall block. Wall blocks must be within 6 feet (1.8 m) of the nearest suitable electrical
outlet. Do not mount the wall block at this time.

 Run wall block interconnect cable (user-supplied) from the SCU to the closest keyboard location, then

to the next nearest location, and the next, etc.

Communication to the keyboards is RS-485. Maximum cable distance for RS-485 communication over
24-gauge wire is 4,000 feet (1,219 m). Pelco recommends using shielded twisted pairs cable that meets
or exceeds the basic requirements for EIA RS-485 applications.

INSTALLATION – DIRECT MODE

The keyboard is wired directly to a maximum of 16 receivers. You can communicate using Pelco P Protocol
or Pelco D Protocol. Direct Mode installation/operation is not the same as CM6700 Mode or CM6800
Mode installation/operation. A separate system, such as an MS500 or VA6100 switcher, is required for
routing video to the monitor(s).

In Direct P and Direct D modes you can now change the zoom speed of a PTZ by entering a number from 1
to 4 followed by a zoom command. This causes the zoom speed command to be sent.

NOTE: A KBDKIT or KBDKIT-X is required to use the keyboard in Direct Mode. The KBDKIT consists of
two RJ-45 wall blocks and a 120 VAC to 12 VAC transformer. The KBDKIT-X is for 230 VAC. Only one wall
block is required for this application.

Connecting the Keyboard

Refer to Figure 10.

 Make sure all receivers are configured to communicate using either Pelco P or Pelco D protocol and

that each receiver has a unique address. Refer to your receiver manual for switch settings.

 Decide on a suitable location for the keyboard and wall block. The keyboard must be within 25 feet

(7.6 meters) of the wall block. The wall block must be within 6 feet (1.8 m) of the nearest suitable
electrical outlet. Do not mount the wall block at this time.

 Remove the cover from the KBDKIT or KBDKIT-X wall block. Connect the transmission wires from the

receiver (Spectra/Esprit system) to the wall block. Refer to Figure 10 and do the following:

• Connect RX+ from receiver/driver to TX+ (terminal 1) on the wall block.

• Connect RX- from receiver/driver to TX- (terminal 2) on the wall block

NOTE: Communication to the keyboards is RS-422. Maximum cable distance for RS-422 communica­tion over 24-gauge wire is 4,000 feet (1,219 m). Pelco recommends using shielded twisted pair cable
that meets or exceeds the basic requirements for EIA RS-422 applications.

 At the wall block wire the transformer to pins 3 and 4. Polarity is unimportant.

 Replace the cover on the wall block. A double-sided sticky pad is provided to mount the wall block.

Secure the wall block to a suitable surface.

 Set the keyboard DIP switches according to the instructions in the

Switch Settings

section.

 Plug in the keyboard data cable.

 Plug the KBDKIT or KBDKIT-X transformer into a suitable outlet. The LED display shows number 1,

which is the default camera number.

Scanning Functions

Operation of the scanning functions depends on the kind of receiver or pan/tilt mechanism you have and
the operating mode of your keyboard (CM6700, CM6800, or Direct Mode).

There are four types of scanning functions: auto (moves camera back and forth between stops), random
(moves camera in a random pattern), frame (moves camera back and forth in 10 degree steps), and preset (se­quences camera through all programmed presets, pausing between each).

Operate scans according to Table F.

The Zone function is available on Esprit and Spectra positioning systems when operated through a
CM6700 or CM6800 switch.* This function puts a label on the screen to identify the viewing area. Zones
can also be blanked to prevent viewing while the camera is positioned in the zone.
