source (see Breakaway below), the “bulb” will be clear, allowing the button color behind to show
through. For destinations on a destination-based console, if a destination is not assigned to a
level in the Configure pages, the level bulb will be grey.

Source-Based Console Indications

On a console configured for source-based switching, if a source is not assigned to a level in the
Configure pages, the bulb will be grey. For destinations on a source-based console, if the
destination is not assigned to a level in the Configure pages, or if a level on the selected source
is not enabled, the bulb will be clear, allowing the button color behind to show through.

The common rule for both cases is that unassigned or unselected level bulbs are grey for the
sources when in source-based mode, and for the destinations when in destination-based mode.

Break-away Switching

Before making a selection that will result in a take of the selected source and destination(s),
ensure that the Level buttons in the top right side of the console are properly enabled. Some
consoles may not have any level buttons, as in the case of a single-destination console.

For example, if only a video switch is desired when there are also two audio levels, deselect the
audio levels as shown below:

The All Levels button (if present) will enable all levels. The Clear Levels button (if present) will
disable all levels.

Salvos and Preset Recalls

Salvos and Recalls are programmed as described in Configure>Salvos earlier in this manual.
Salvos and Recalls are assigned to each console as described in Configure>Console
Design>Other Buttons
earlier in this manual.

To fire a Salvo, click on the desired salvo or recall button. The salvo or recall will fire when the
button is pressed. Salvos in the MediaNAV GUI consoles operate like salvos on the Sierra Video
SCP control panels, in an auto-take mode without the need to press the Take button.
