BSS Soundweb London BLU-10 Touch Screen Programmable Remote Wall Controller, Black

The Soundweb London BLU-10 Wall Controller offers Ethernet connectivity, direct or PoE powering, comprehensive pre-engineered touch-screen control and password security. The BLU-10 features a touch-screen display, two hardware buttons and a rotary encoder. The display of the BLU-10 can be divided into up to eight sizeable positions where page change buttons, preset recalls or almost any parameter can be represented. Custom text, static images and animated images can be used on these positions to further enhance the user interface.

• Ethernet Connectivity
• 12-48VDC or PoE Powering
• Touch-Screen Display
• Customizable Navigation
• Password Security
• Sleep Feature

Multiple pages can be organized into a hierarchy of folders to assist with navigation. There are two methods of navigation with the BLU-10. The first method uses page change buttons on the touch-screen display to navigate between pages in the same folder. The second method uses the lower hardware button to access a hierarchical tree representation of the folders and pages within the BLU-10 implementation. Password security can be applied to individual pages or folders ensuring that only authorized users can make changes to specific parameters when BLU-10 controllers are placed in public areas.

Access rights for different types of users can be established by using multiple passwords to access different sets of system parameters. The BLU-10 can be programmed to enter a 'Sleep' state after a predetermined delay time. In this state, the screen brightness assumes a predetermined reduced brightness level. 'Active' brightness is restored when the BLU-10 'wakes' following detection by the IR proximity sensor. The BLU-10 is available in white, black or blue as three different versions: BLU-10-WHT, BLU-10-BLK and BLU-10-BLU respectively. The BLU-10 and the other members of the Soundweb London family provide the building blocks of the perfectly tailored system solution.

Programming the BLU-10
Soundweb users will be familiar with the simple drag-and-drop programming interface and the BLU-10 interface is very similar. Once the menu pages have been created, operation of the pages can be tested using the special simulation mode, which emulates how the controller will work when in use. This allows menu structures to be checked before the system goes live.

The BLU-10 connects into a Soundweb London network via its Ethernet port, either directly into the rear of a rackmount device such as the BLU-16 with a Cat 5 crossover cable or with a standard Cat 5 cable into an Ethernet switch. The unit is powered either using the terminals on the rear, accepting a range of 12-48VDC or with IEEE802.3af Power Over Ethernet (POE).

Mechanical Installation
The BLU-10 mounts in a standard U.S 3-gang wallbox using the screws provided with the unit.
