CONNECTING THE OPS200 3-1. CONNECTING THE OPS200 The OPS200 can be set up with up to 11 different sources, and will drive up to 2 digital DVI-D sources, 2 SD/ HD-SDI sources and 7 analog computer/video sources simultaneously. The versatility of the OPS200 will allow for almost any event configuration and cater for all your projection needs. The intuitive rear panel of the OPS200 will let you set up for the first time quickly and easily. Here is an example of a typical OPS200 setup.
3-2. THE OPS200 REAR PANEL Overview The OPS200 rear panel is equipped with 11 universal digital and analog inputs. Inputs #1 through #5 (3) are universal analog inputs. Inputs #6 & #7 (4) share a DVI-D signal and a universal analog signal (plug the shipped Analog Way DVI/HD15 adaptor cable to use DVI-D and analog signals simultaneously). Inputs #10 and #11 (5) are the HD/SD-SDI inputs of the OPS200.
Inputs #1 to #7 UNIVERSAL COMPUTER & VIDEO INPUTS: Universal Inputs accept computer sources (RGBHV, RGBS, and RGsB (SOG) signals), standard TV/VIDEO sources (Composite video, S.VIDEO), Component video (YUV, RGBS & RGsB (SOG)), and HDTV sources (480p, 720p & 1080i). HD15: 1 x Universal Analog input on female HD15 connector. COMPUTER SOURCES: The device accepts the following computer signals RGBHV, RGB/S, and RGsB on inputs #1 to #7.
RGBS VIDEO SOURCES: This signal is widely used in broadcasting and is available on European DVD player. The RGB/S signal is transmitted with 4 coaxial cables, and also has a better picture quality than COMPOSITE and S.VIDEO signals. The RGB/S connectors are usually BNC connectors for Broadcasting equipment, and SCART connector for DVD players. For inputs #1 to #5: connect an HD15 to 4 x BNC cable between the HD15 connector of the device and your RGB/S source.
Main Outputs MAIN OUTPUT: ANALOG: 1 x analog output for the main display device on female HD15 connector. DIGITAL/ANALOG: 1 x main output on female DVI-I connector (simultaneous analog and digital). AUDIO SWITCHER: Audio Stereo Switcher card features 11 inputs and 2 outputs. An additional auxiliary input can be mixed with any other input. Master Volume and individual input level can be adjusted. Each input and output offers balanced or unbalanced connections.
OPERATING THE OPS200 4-1. THE OPS200 FRONT PANEL Overview The highly intuitive front panel of the OPS200 was designed by Analog Way engineers to simply and quickly meet all of your event needs. Within minutes, you will be able to enjoy its full potential and easily parameter most of its functions, without having to be an expert audio-visual engineer, leaving room for what is most important to our users: concentrating on their event.
On/Off button The [STANDBY] button allows users to put the OPS200 into sleep mode, and startup again. The [STANDBY] button does not replace the ON/OFF switch at the rear of the unit, and is implemented essentially for ease of use in rackmount situations. --> Hold for 3 seconds for stand-by mode Menu screen The Menu Screen of the OPS200 is the visual interface to your OPS200 menu.
Freeze button The [FREEZE] button of the OPS200 allows users to freeze the Main output current display or the active layer, depending on the freeze mode: Freeze All, freezes all visible layers, Layer Freeze, to freeze the current selected layer. Effect selection button The OPS200 [EFFECT] selection button is a practical front panel shortcut to the OPS200 Layer Effects menu. Preset selection button The OPS200 [PRESET] selection button is a practical front panel shortcut to the Opus LE Preset menu.

REMOTE CONTROL SOFTWARE 5-1. THE OPS200 RCS RCS presentation Your OPS200 is shipped with a Windows compatible control software. The RCS software allows you to control your OPS200 in exactly the same way as with the front panel of the device, only using your PC as a remote. How to use the RCS ? You have to install the software on a Computer and have a LAN board or RS-232 link to use the RCS. After the installation, launch the program and proceed to the network establishment. Software installation 1.
Software overview 1 The RCS software for your OPS200 is composed of several easily identified sections. The tabs menu allows you to navigate through the equivalent of the OPS200 front panel menu items (see also “The OPS200 Menu”). The green window of the RCS represents 2 your Preview window, and can be used to parameter sources, frames, layers and logos directly by clicking on the corresponding 3 button, then navigating through the different available tabs.
Serial connection 1/ Connect an RS232 cable between the OPS200 and your PC, then power on your devices. 2/ Click on the RCS program file on your PC to run the software. 3/ Click on the “Connections” tab and select RS232 as the connection type. In the drop-down menu, select the COM port number corresponding to the connected device (default is Port 1). 4/ Click apply, and wait for devices to synchronize.
5-2. WORKING WITH THE RCS Source input configuration Once your OPS200 is wired up to your PC, the first step in properly configuring your machine is to individually select and parameter your inputs. 1/ Click on the “Inputs” tab of the RCS. 2/ In the Plug column of the “Input” page, select the plug type by clicking the appropriate field. 3/ Activate the input in the Enabled column if it is not. 4/ In the scroll-down menu of the Type column, select the signal type connected to that plug.
PIP configuration 1/ Click on the Image tab of the RCS interface. The empty Image screen will appear on screen. 2/ By clicking on the drop-down menu in the Preview section, situated next to the layer you wish to use as a PIP, you will access the image parameters of the PIP source you select (#1 to #11). 3/ Set the desired PIP attributes (size, position, zoom, border, transparency...). 4/ Click the Image tab to return to the main screen.
Working with logos It is possible to store up to 8 logos in the OPS200 non volatile memory. Logos work in much the same way as frames, and can be recorded from any of the OPS200’ 11 sources. Logos have more attributes than frames. They can be sized, positionned, but also keyed via color cutout selection or luma key. Memorizing logos 1/ In the Input Selection section, click the source button (#1 to #11) of the source you wish to record as a logo.
Creating presets The OPS200 allows the creation of user defined presets very easily. Any setup you have configured on screen, can be stored into one of the 4 available user presets. 1/ After having configured layers, PIP transitions, logos... on your screen (see “Working With the RCS” chapter), click on one of the four available Preset buttons. 2/ In the dropdown menu, choose Save From Main or Save From Preview to determine which screen you want to memorize the preset from.
Audio Configuration To configure audio settings of the OPS200, plug all audio inputs into the device, and click on the Audio tab of the RCS home page. 1/ Set the Main audio output level and delay (accessible only if Delay Mode is set to Manual Adjust, see also the “Audio Configuration” chapter), or click the Mute button to mute Main audio output. 2/ Repeat step 2 for the Prelist audio output.
OPTIONAL REMOTE CONTROL SYSTEMS 6-1. Axion2 Axion2: The Axion2 is an ergonomic and reliable remote controller for rental & staging/multi-venues at an optimal price/performance ratio. It controls simultaneously up to 6 screens in a single or multiple display configuration. The Axion2 integrates a offline mode for setup the devices not connected. A sequences mode is also available for automatic recall of presets. 6-2.
