SYLMAR,
CA, April 29, 2010 — When Just
George’s, the sports bar connected to the Captain
George’s Seafood Restaurant in Kill Devil Hills, North Carolina,
needed a way to let each booth control its own A/V content, they turned
to Virginia Beach-based Fidelity
Sound Reinforcement. Fidelity selected innovative solutions from
Xantech Corporation,
a leading producer of innovative, reliable and problem-solving custom
installation signal processing and control systems.
Mike
Phillips, Project Manager and Audio Engineer at Fidelity, which did
the system design and integration at the sports bar, chose the Xantech
LM110RP
Smartpad3 Single Gang Keypad Controller to enable the system to
allow patrons at each booth in the lounge to control their own A/V content.
In addition, the Xantech CSPLCD64
Commercial Touchscreen Display was also integrated into the system.
Fidelity
Sound Reinforcement installed a dozen LM110 push-button controllers
in the lounge, one at every booth. The LM110 offers those seated in
the booth the ability to call up any channel from DirecTV, including
the channel guides and pre-selected sports channels, as well as control
over the volume of their display. Additionally, staff can also customize
the experience by choosing which sports events are on any of the ten
52-inch LCD displays placed throughout the lounge, which are controlled
using Xantech’s standalone CSPLCD64 Commercial Touchscreen Display.
This
level of individual customization of the lounge patron’s experience
is unheard of and only possible thanks to the reliability and high degree
of programmability of the Xantech controllers, which replaces products
from another manufacturer that Phillips says had a history of crashing
the system. “Now it’s a place where if somebody wants to
see any sporting event -- football, baseball, hockey, NCAA -- they’ve
pretty much got it,” says Phillips. “The LM110s are standalone
units; there’s not a single processor that drives all those booths.
We love that type of individual control. And we have cable as a back-up
and that is controlled with the touch panel also.”
Phillips
was pleased with how easily the Xantech equipment was programmed and
how well it’s performing. “The Xantech installation was
pretty simple and trouble-free,” he says. “Everything that
controls the video in that restaurant is Xantech, and the customers
and employees have been really pleased with it.”
