The KBD5000 Series keyboard is the controller for Pelco’s complete network-based video system products. It is the point from which all user functions can be accessed. The KBD5000 Series is compatible with all Endura® Series distributed, network-based video products.
The KBD5000 Series is configured with three control modules that are installed in receptacles on the keyboard.
The following three modules are included with the keyboard:

- A variable speed, vector-solving joystick with keys for lens iris and focus control. The barrel-type joystick provides precise pan and tilt control of fixed speed and variable speed positioning systems. Twisting the joystick zooms the lens in and out. The joystick and button atop the joystick also are used for navigating the on-screen programming menus of the compatible VCD5000

- A jog dial/shuttle ring for playback and menu navigation. The jog/ shuttle contains four illuminated function keys. Each key’s color corresponds to the color of its icons displayed on the monitors linked to the user interface. This intuitive color matching design lets users navigate the on-screen menus without looking down to read keyboard text labels.

- A keypad for camera and monitor control. Keys select cameras and monitors, and the number of cameras to view. The KBD5000 Series incorporates a unique wrist rest built into the base of the unit. The context-sensitive help key is another unique feature of this keyboard. In addition, easy export is accomplished using the KBD5000’s USB port.

The KBD5000 Series can be logically configured so any number of keyboards can be added to the system. When combined with Pelco’s new user interfaces (UIs), network video recorders (NVRs), encoders, digital video recorders (DVRs), and video consoles, the KBD5000 forms an integral part of a complete network-based video control system.
