3 Overview
The SL-1 is a highly versatile controller that acts as an all-in-one extended remote control panel for control of A/V equipment—especially projectors and associated equipment—in any room (such as classrooms, boardrooms, or auditoriums). It streamlines operations and simplifies control by integrating audio, video, and computer-video sources into a centralized system.
The SL-1 Master Room Controller features:
• 2 bidirectional RS-232 ports to control AV equipment such as projectors, LCD and PDP displays, power amplifiers, switchers and scalers
• 3 relay contact closure ports to control other room items related to the
AV system such as raising and lowering drapes, the screen or the projector
• IR control - 1 input (3.5mm) and 2 outputs (terminals blocks)
• IR Learning that learns commands from any IR remote
• Compatibility with Kramer Site-CTRL™ software for network remote control and management over the Ethernet port
• A K-NET™ control channel for connecting compatible user interfaces and supplying power and control data over a single cable
• A USB port for loading device firmware
• Flexible control using Ethernet, K-NET™, IR sensors and external IR commands
To achieve the best performance:
• Use only good quality connection cables
1
• Position your Kramer SL-1 away from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust
