Configuration and setup interface

Robit Architect comes with a large library of supported protocols (TSL, Imagine, Grass Valley, Sony etc.) for controlling and interfacing with a wide range of Imagine devices and panels and 3rd party broadcast devices (baseband routers, multiviewers and vision mixers).
Most of Imagine Communications, Grass Valley, Sony, For-A, Ross and other brands protocols are integrated seamlessly.
With R-Arch tool you can configure Smart Panel software that runs on Robit embedded server or on a PC or Linux.

Architect Orchestrator

Dante Audio Routing for channel subscription completely integrated.

A HTML web (server-based) option for Smart Panels is available; that is working in almost any environment or even with your smartphone, natively from the browser.

The security of the system is of the highest level, since the tool runs on the Robit server management system.
Operator access to signals is restricted within the installation, allowing easy and secure signal routing for all users.

UMD & Tally configuration is easy, and can add many tally logics, triggering several actions connected to the original tally signal.
Specifically it is possible to setup an automation or a follow camera action connected to physical general purpose GPIO. CCU cueing are also driven by the orchestrator through the physical GPO contacts.

MultiViewers: UMD and Tally Information
An unlimited number of tallies can be calculated for all resources in the system. Most brand of multiviewers and monitors can be controlled to display information like currently active source, tally colors and other metadata.
Many UMD/tally protocols are supported both over IP (TCP/UDP) or serial (with a phisical serial port interface to the server).
It is possible to integrate an unlimited number of vision mixers, multiviewers and GPIO interfaces. The UMD & Tally configuration is easy, and can add many tally logics, triggering several actions connected to the original tally signal.

Software Smart Panels
Robit Smart Panels are configured internally on Robit Architect GUI.
XY-Panel, Breakway Panel, Single Row and Multi Rows are available.
Smart Panels can run on Robit server or on client PC w/ Windows(c) or Linux OS.
A server-based HTML Web option for Smart Panels is available that will work in almost any environment or even with your smartphone, natively from the browser.

Control Room

Robit’s UMD controller:
By interfacing with Robit’s UMD controller, the control room will be able to provide users with dynamic UMD and tally capability, enhanced connectivity and ease of updating protocols when needs expand.

Robit’s UMD controller collects information from signal routing and mixer and operates displays and tallies as directed by its internal configuration information Software operated with an easy PC interface just to configure the controller. Robit UMD controller provides the customers with the capability of fully integrating Leitch routing, master control and multi-viewer applications with third-party equipment in a dynamic platform.

Robit controller provides immediate support for dynamic UMD and complex tally control based on all widely deployed routing switchers, master control/presentation mixers and production switchers/vision mixers. Robit controller provides also new software drivers to achieve compatibility with new third-party products in development. Tally information can be managed and shared through various devices, including TSL equipment, over an IP network or serial bus.

This advantage the customers, because there is no need to know in advance the exact model of every piece of equipment our customers will need to support; Robit UMD controller has the flexibility to be reconfigured in the field with minimal effort. This Robit solution delivers a strong improvement in operational usability through the consolidation of video monitoring and the way tally and UMD information is presented to the user.
