1200 SERIES SMARTPANELS

Riedel’s next-generation SmartPanels open new perspectives into multifunctional user interfaces.

Building upon the technology that powers Riedel’s SmartPanel app-driven user interfaces, the new 1200 Series SmartPanels represent a quantum leap forward in workflow flexibility, power, and connectivity. Featuring multiple full-color multi-touchscreen displays, innovative hybrid lever keys, the ability to leverage apps for multifunctionality, and the ability to easily adapt to the various workflows in use today, these new panels are poised to allow you to work the way you always have while opening up entirely new workflow possibilities.

Completely new from the ground up, the 1200 Series SmartPanels are Riedel’s smartest panels yet! The SmartPanel concept decouples the panel’s capabilities from its hardware and turns it into a generic device on which customers can install different apps to enable different capabilities. With a Riedel SmartPanel, you not only get what the panel is capable of today – but also what it will be capable of in the future.

Apps

Intercom App

The 1200 Series Intercom App supports multiple workflows. Some comms users prefer a “Talk/Listen” workflow where the user chooses what to listen to from an initially silent panel. Other users prefer a “Talk/Mute” workflow that starts with a panel that broadcasts everything, with the users selecting which signals to turn off. Users can decide which mode they prefer on a per-panel basis. New features that further enhance the panel’s ease of use include Riedel’s new Logical Groups concept. Logical Groups allow users to choose custom colors for the key labels or the LED rings around the keys. Each key label has an 8-character main label, a 16-character sub label, and user-defined icons. Other icons provide information about the state of each key at any point in time. The “open mic”, “muted key”, “incoming beep”, or “port busy” prompts are easy to read and understandable at a glance. Users can get as much or as little information about any given key as needed. 

Control Panel App

Workflow Control with the Control Panel App

With the Control Panel App, 3rd party control, monitoring, and automation systems can be adapted to the SmartPanel‘s easy-to-use and highly intuitive user interface. Its feature set is surprisingly simple but incredibly powerful. Users can trigger actions in 3rd party systems with the panel’s keys, rotaries, LED's, & displays and get visual feedback on configuration status and changes via colours, labels, and icons on the displays and LEDs. The Control Panel App is built on open NMOS standards for easy interoperability and scalability. Key to this is the NMOS IS-07 standard which allows the exchange of event/state information (e.g. the press of a button or the colour of an LED) across systems of different vendors. 

Key Benefits 

  • Based on open NMOS standard. No support of a proprietary protocol needed 
  • Multiple 3rd party vendors are supporting CPA 
  • Connect to more than one 3rd party system at the same time 
  • 3rd Party control of lever keys, rotary encoders, displays & LEDs 
  • Infinite possibilities to customise your own workflow 
  • App runs in standalone or in parallel with other Apps on the SmartPanel   
  • Efficient use of hardware, save 1 to 2RU of rack space

Why NMOS?

For Discovery, Connection and Control we use the AMWA-NMOS standards as the API for the Control Panel App. 

  • NMOS IS-04: Discover - available sources within your network (e.g. “lever key #1”) 
  • NMOS IS-05: Connect - sources to destinations (e.g. “lever key #1 is connected to “input control”) 
  • NMOS IS-07: Event & Tally - send state and state change information (e.g. “lever key #1” is pressed -> change input control from “Input A” to “Input B”) 

Each 3rd party device supporting NMOS will be able to natively use the Control Panel App. That can be a broadcast control system, automation system, control system, scheduling system, monitoring system or even a proprietary NMOS application. 

CPA can connect to even more than one control system at the same time because of the open NMOS standard.
 

Supported Vendors

We have worked together with the following industry partners to support the Control Panel App and integrate it into their products. We will gladly support any other vendors who want to integrate the Riedel Control Panel app into their system.

Please contact these vendors directly about the workflow you want to implement.

Audio Monitoring App (AMA)

The Audio Monitoring App (AMA) enables operators to monitor audio streams while managing a production via the Intercom App. This makes the 1200 Series SmartPanels the only devices that can operate intercom and audio monitoring simultaneously! The AMA allows a direct connection to any SMPTE 2110-30 (AES67) stream available on the network – either dynamically managed via NMOS or in a static IP/SDP-based configuration, mixing the audio directly inside the SmartPanel. The AMA can be configured via a dedicated configuration tool or a broadcast controller using the built-in API. In addition, the selection and management of monitored audio sources is incredibly simple and flexible. SmartPanel users can monitor up to 16 stereo/mono SMPTE 2110-30 (AES67) streams in parallel while a total of 256 Audio Monitoring Sources can be pre- configured and managed directly on the panel. Because of the SmartPanel’s intuitive user interface and its high-resolution LC touch displays, operators can easily manage the audio monitoring sources on the panel by themselves. With the Audio Monitoring App and the Intercom App running on the same endpoint, users will never miss an important intercom call when monitoring an audio source, as the monitoring volume can be dimmed in case of an incoming call. If operators don’t want to get distracted by calls, the inter-application behavior can also be configured to automatically dim the audio coming from the Intercom App when soloing an audio source. With the SmartPanel‘s high-fidelity speakers, the intuitive UI and the ability to manage the inter-app behavior, the AMA makes a separate audio monitor obsolete and enables users to save cost and rack space while delivering an improved workflow.
