Kramer Electronics is showing its new VP-727T In-CTRL™ Seamless Switcher Remote Control Panel at NAB in booth #SL6105.

The VP-727T is designed for use in live production and presentation environments which require remote operation of the VP-727 In-CTRL Seamless Switcher. The panel features a T-Bar for manual transitioning between video sources. The VP-727T console mimics the front panel design of the VP-727, and while it offers standard push-buttons for wipe and direction control as well as transition speed selection, a convenient T-Bar lever has been added for the manual execution of takes and transitions. The VP-727T employs dedicated single button controls for special effect selection, image freezing and blanking, PIP display, and choice of wipe direction. The buttons have removable caps for convenient labeling. A menu button on the console allows the user to conduct setup operations for the VP-727 Seamless Switcher via an on-screen menu on the Preview monitor.

Four RS-485 ports allow the VP-727T to control up to four VP-727 Seamless Switcher units. Additionally, the panel is outfitted with an RS-232 port for firmware upgrades. The VP-727T comes in a standard 19” rack mount frame and is 4RU high. Its angled faceplate allows for free standing tabletop use. The VP-727T‘s installation kit includes a gooseneck lamp that can be plugged into the console for illumination in low light environments.
