Programming Crestron Controllers for a Kaleidescape System

Controlling a movie zone with both SATP and OSD control
To use both the standalone touch panel (SATP) and the onscreen display (OSD)
interface to control a movie zone, like the single zone output of an M500 Player, the
user can select music from a touch panel without turning on the video display. The
best approach for this scenario is to imagine that the single zone is actually two
different devices: one is an OSD-controlled movie zone which can play movies or
music, and the other is an SATP-controlled music-only zone. Both SATP and OSD
No Video templates must be loaded onto the touch panel. These templates are
designed as a single page to allow the templates to reside on the same touch
panel. The single page design makes it easier to integrate Kaleidescape templates
into a larger user interface file on the touch panel.
Both modules can use the same connection with TX$ and RX$ signals jammed
together, but the better method is to isolate the two different modules onto
individual TCP/IP clients. In this case, the two TCP/IP clients use the same IP
address, and the modules use the same CPDID.
Use buffers or other methods to separate devices on a touch panel. Remember to
add a Make String Permanent symbol to keep the serial strings that are not routed in
memory.
Calibrating the touch interface
If using the OSD Video template, the touch panel interface must be calibrated to
enable the user to touch the video feed. This calibration is in addition to the
calibration of the Crestron touch panel itself.
Once the system is functioning, press the Kaleidescape logo in the upper left corner
of the OSD touch panel to bring up the Kaleidescape menu. On a Premiere line
system, highlight System, select Status and then use the left/right arrows to select
System Setup. On Alto and Cinema One (2
nd
generation), highlight System then select
Settings and then use the up/down arrows to select Advanced. From there, select the
Calibrate Touch Panel entry and follow the instructions.
Calibration information is stored in the player itself. Each zone used for OSD Video
control must be calibrated.
