Versio Control
Build customized dashboards for master control operations and enable full control of switching, graphics and automation.
Configurable master control dashboards
Versio™ Control is a configurable web-based dashboard builder designed for master control operations, and is part of the Versio™ integrated playout ecosystem. It enables users to build customized contextual-driven control and monitoring panels with the right tools for manual channel control.
Versio™ Control provides a toolkit of functional widgets that combine master control, graphics, automation and system monitoring capability into a single, consolidated framework. It makes the user experience simpler and smarter, allowing you to effortlessly add functionality through its intuitive grid-based, drag-and-drop configuration in real time.

Safe operations
Protect channel control through authenticated access and granular permissions.
Easy to configure, easy to use
Build interfaces on-the-fly with easy-to-use drag and drop configuration.
Improved efficiencies
Increase operator-to-channel density for multichannel control and monitoring.
Scalable
Scale up and scale down as operational complexity requirements demand.
Technical information
Features
- Each operator can customize the layout of their own panel/dashboard.
- Supervisors can create multichannel dashboard for an all-in-one system monitoring.
- All dashboards are centrally stored so once a panel has been created, any workstation in any location can be granted access.
Canvas designer
Use a simple and intuitive designer to quickly and efficiently create workspaces to highlight and prioritize data of operational significance.
Instant workspace access
A quick-select Favorites pane allows single-click recall of common workspaces, allowing operators to effortlessly jump between different panels as operational tasks require.
Dynamic displays
Build panels for events such as live sports, deliver high-density multichannel monitoring, or simply show a huge clock to display a countdown to the next missing event.
User Authentication
Level of access can be limited based on a user’s role. Edit access might be restricted to system administrators, while operators can be limited to view and control access.
Custom widgets
API framework for 3rd-party vendors or customers to build their own widgets. You can integrate internal applications into the platform to further streamline operations.
Widgets
- Functionality added in the form of widgets like modules that provide a user with specific functionality — they can be as simple as a single button or as complex as a switcher row.
- Each widget supports its own configuration and customization, including the ability to set button size and color. The level of configuration required depends on the complexity of the widget.
