WinOGCP provides the same simplified and instantly available remote control as our award-winning OGCP-9000 Remote Control Panel, in a convenient PC application.

Cobalt® expands our remote control choices with WinOGCP. Providing the same simplified and instantly available remote control offered by our award-winning OGCP-9000 Remote Control Panel, WinOGCP is available as a convenient PC application. Its control and display layout is identical to the OGCP-9000, and is fully compatible with DashBoard™ and OGCP-9000 remote control. WinOGCP is compatible with most Cobalt signal processing cards.

WinOGCP communicates with and controls cards in an openGear® frame over an optimized high-speed openGear® control protocol using your PC’s standard Ethernet connection – no additional hardware is required. WinOGCP offers real-time adjustments using the same intuitive control layout as our rack-mount control panel.

An easy to use keypad provides intuitive access with minimal submenus. For any card, only one level of submenus is needed to access all of its functions. Station engineers can configure the panel to restrict availability of specific cards and parameters for operation. WinOGCP works seamlessly with DashBoard™ control – any changes made with either system are instantly reflected on the other.

WinOGCP has background settings that are optimized for bright and low light environments. The large size high-resolution graphics utilize the full width of the desktop, offering clear graphics and easy to read text. (Illustrations show WinOGCP with optional +LM Loudness Metering, which is not included.)
