A new AMX NI-2100 controller shall be provided and become the central controller for
Room A. A new 10” AMX surface mount touch screen shall be provided in the AV rack
as the control interface for the system. The GUI for this screen shall allow for video
routing, audio routing, and access to DSP functions such as microphone settings. The
intercom feature shall also be enabled allowing for voice communication to the new
AMX screen to be installed in the Control room. A second new desktop 10” AMX touch
screen shall be located, with an RJ45 Ethernet connection panel, on the Staff Desk.
The GUI for this screen shall be a simplified version of the rack screen, allowing for
day to day operation as required by the staff in the Room A. A simplified approach to
the GUI should be taken, with the use of preset buttons etc.
It is envisioned that all system programming will be performed via laptop PC.
Programming software shells shall be provided to the City of Beverly Hills by the AV
Contractor so that the Owner can setup their own laptop for maintenance use and/or
login to the systems from a remote PC in the control room. The AV Contractor shall
provide their own laptop/PC for system programming/commissioning/training
purposes.
Control Room
The Control room is located on the first floor, to the east, respectively, of the second
floor location of the Council Chambers and Room A. This room is the head end of the
City of Beverly Hills TV Production System. The current system, which is SDI based, is
not in scope at this time for major changes. The new AV systems for the Council
Chamber and Room A will, however, require some small additions to the Control room.
