CTRL001 PROJECTOR CONTROL UNIT The CTRL001 is a wall mounted easy to use projector control unit compatible with all current and the majority of Hitachi legacy projectors. The CTRL001 offers manual and automatic on/off and source selection functions. The auto on function is activated when a USB lead connected to a PC is plugged in to the unit, as the USB signal can be passed through to an external device; this makes the unit ideal for incorporation in to an interactive whiteboard setup. An additional USB connector is incorporated for connecting USB devices to the attached PC. This allows the user to access files stored on their USB or memory device with the interactive whiteboard setup, without the need to access the PC. When connected to a PC the unit is powered by the USB port but will revert to battery power when the PC is disconnected. The unit incorporates intelligent battery saving technology with a lifetime of at least 6 months. Power and error indicators are included to alert the user of low battery and other fault conditions. Custom units can be produced with up to 7 buttons for large orders, minimum quantities and prices on application. Key Features: • Turns projector on or off • Instant Off/On • Change Input Source • Warning lights • No need for a remote control • Preserves battery life (batteries not included) • USB Port so that presentations or homework can be uploaded onto a whiteboard with ease • Supplied with 5m RS232 cable CTRL001 Technical specifications Operation The unit will remain in unpowered state until either power is detected on USB input or on/off button is pressed • On USB power detect Retrieve last selected channel from non-volatile memory and send power-on command to projector followed by channel select command. • On USB power down Start timeout.
