Both VMC1 control surfaces feature helpful indicators and system feedback by means of illuminated displays.
1. An OLED display positioned just left of each stripe normally shows the delegate state for the
associated stripe. For example it may show that the
stripe has been delegated (or ‘assigned’) to
control the Main switcher, one or more M/Es, or for VMC1, one of its supplementary routed output.
2. The blue LCD panels spanning each stripe just below the KEY row show labels identifying the
selection that would result from pressing a button in the same column.
Hint: The numbers 1-24 are silkscreened above the LCD panels as a further aid when making selections.
