EMC DESKTOP CONTROL PANEL
Revision 1.1 Page 1
1. OVERVIEW OF EMC-DCP
The EMC Desktop Control Panel (EMC-DCP) is a 19” wide control panel used with the 3025EMC
Master Control Switcher, QMC-2 Master Control System, PKGHD9625SW or PKG9625SW Mini Master
Control System. The EMC-DCP control panel features a combination of fixed and dynamic LCD,
assignable control buttons. The LCD buttons are capable of displaying multiple lines of text or graphics.
The panel features 98 buttons and 5 shaft encoders, as well as two plug-in modules for further
customization. Preset and program bus select controls use a quiet tactile button and a shared LCD
display for source labeling.
The first optional module contains 15 buttons and 5 shaft encoders, and offers an extension to the
configurable buttons of the main panel. The second optional module contains an LCD display, ideal for
audio level monitoring and logo previews.
The panel is designed for use on a desktop, in a console, mounted in a rack or on a sliding tray in a
rack. The EMC-DCP offers the same set of configurable features as the other QMC-2 control panels
and can work with existing EMC or QMC-2 systems. The EMC-DCP also offers a number of optional
features.
1.1. FEATURES
The following is a list of EMC-DCP features:
•Flexible menu driven configurations providing quick and simple access
•Easily reconfigured for dynamically changing environments
•Each LCD display can display up to 3 lines (five characters per line) of text or graphics
•Each LCD display backlight is full RGB colour capable with intensity control
•Fully assignable and programmable operation
•Button per source selection with Page mode next and last buttons to select more sources
•Panel lock button to protect against unauthorized or accidental selection
•8 tally inputs
•8 tally outputs

2. INSTALLATION OF EMC-DCP
2.1. UNPACKING
Carefully remove the equipment from the boxes and check against the Packing List supplied with each
unit. This shows what items have been shipped against your order and includes all options. Any error
should be reported to your supplier immediately. After you have unpacked the equipment please save
all the packing material as this could be useful in the future if the unit needs to be returned for
maintenance.
Check each item supplied for transit damage. Any damage should be reported in detail to your supplier.
You must state the serial number of the unit (to be found on the rear or side of each unit).
The EMC-DCP is shipped with the following pieces of equipment:

2.1.1. Physical Location
The control panel is normally mounted on a desktop or in a console; however it may also be mounted in
a sliding tray of an equipment rack. If rack mounting is desired, you can remove the rack mount cover
plates on each side to expose the rack mount brackets.
2.1.2. Cooling
Overall power dissipation is relatively low but certain components run hot and cooling is provided for
these by internal fans. These draw cool air from one side of the panel and exhaust it through the other
side vents.
In all cases it is important to keep the apertures clear of obstructions e.g. cables

EMC-DCP
EMC DESKTOP CONTROL PANEL
Revision 1.1 Page 3
2.1.3. Power Supply
The EMC-DCP comes with an auto-ranging DC voltage adapter that automatically senses the input
voltage. Power should be applied by connecting a 3-wire grounding type power supply cord to the
power entry module on the DC voltage adapter. The power cord should be minimum 18 AWG wire size;
type SVT marked VW-1, maximum 2.5 m in length. The DC cable of the voltage adapter should be
connected to the DC power jack on the rear of the panel.
WARNING:
This equipment uses power/mains connectors fitted with safety ground pins.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, grounding of the ground pin of the mains
plug must be maintained.
To completely disconnect this equipment from the AC mains, disconnect the
power supply cord plug from the AC receptacle.
This equipment may have
more than on
e power supply cord. To reduce the risk of electric shock,
disconnect all power supply cords before servicing.

ns are configured using the
EMCSetup software. The button type supports 255 different colours.
5 VFD Displays:
The VFD displays are used to provide the operators with information
regarding the panel and channel.
6
Large LED buttons: The functions of these buttons are configured using the
EMC
Setup software. This button type supports the colours Red and Green (and a
combination of the two colours).
7

3.4. CONNECTING EMC-DCP TO 3025EMC SYSTEM
The EMC-DCP is an extension of the existing family of control panels for the EMC Master Control
systems. Like the previous QMC-DCP, the EMC-DCP will communicate with the EMC over an Ethernet
connection.
Error! Reference source not found. shows a basic EMC System configuration. The EMC will still
communicate with an upstream router via Q-Link or Serial (if router is a third party router). To connect
the EMC-DCP to the EMC, a network hub/switch is required. Connect a Cat 5 Ethernet cable from
Ethernet A (on EMC-DCP) to the network hub. The user will then connect a Cat 5 Ethernet cable to the
Network Port of the EMC. Use the EMCSetup software to setup the IP addresses, network settings,
etc. (See section 3.8).
Figure 3-6: Basic EMC Configuration

3.5. CONNECTING EMC-DCP TO QMC-2 SYSTEM
The EMC-DCP is an extension of the existing family of control panels for the QMC-2 Master Control
system. Like the QMC-CP-FP-FPE, the EMC-DCP will communicate with the QMC-2 over an Ethernet
connection. At this time, Ethernet is the only method of communicating with the QMC-2.
Error! Reference source not found. shows a basic QMC-2 System configuration. The QMC-2 will still
communicate with an upstream router via Q-Link or Serial (if router is a third party router). To connect
the EMC-DCP to the QMC-2, a network hub/switch is required. Connect a Cat 5 Ethernet cable from
Ethernet A (on EMC-DCP) to the network hub. The user will then connect a Cat 5 Ethernet cable to the
Network Port of the QMC-2. Use the EMCSetup software to setup the IP addresses, network settings,
etc. (See section 3.8).
Figure 3-7: Basic QMC-2 Configuration
3.6. CONNECTING EMC-DCP TO PKG9625SW OR PKGHD9625SW
(MINI MASTER CONTROL)
Figure 3-8 shows a basic Mini Master Control configuration. The EMC-DCP will communicate with the
Mini Master Control over Ethernet. To connect the EMC-DCP to the Mini Master Control, a network
hub/switch is required. Connect a Cat 5 Ethernet cable from Ethernet A (on EMC-DCP) to the network
hub. The user will then connect a Cat 5 Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port on the Mini Master. The
EMC-DCP will require an IP address in order to connect to the Mini Master Controls (see section 3.7).

Figure 3-8: Basic Mini Master Configuration
3.7. CONFIGURING IP ADDRESS AND QLINK ADDRESS OF EMC-DCP
In order to set the IP Addresses of Ethernet ports A and B and the Q-Link address, the user will be
required to enter the Setup Mode of the EMC-DCP, which can be accessed directly on the panel.
Figure 3-9 shows which shaft encoders the user MUST push AND simultaneously hold down for 10
seconds in order to enter Setup Mode.

Figure 3-9: Getting into EMC-DCP Setup Mode
After about 10 seconds, the EMC-DCP panel will turn RED, and then it will switch to multi-coloured
mode. In this mode, the EMC-DCP will display the various Setup Menu options in the top left corner of
the panel (see Figure 3-10).
