NUMBERPAD (NUM LOCK ON)
Having covered the alternate (NUM LOCK off) numberpad button
functions, let’s consider the value of the Numberpad in connection with
running macros.
Any macro can be triggered by pressing a three-digit number sequence
on any of the
Numberpads on the control surface. Simply open the
Macro Configuration panel in TriCaster’s Live Desktop , and select a
macro from the list; click a Listen box at the bottom of the panel, then
type a three digit number, such as 123.
Each Numberpad on the control surface is treated independently. Thus
the very same numeric entry can trigger different macros from the
Numberpads in different stripes.
For VMC 4S, which has three Numberpads , this means you have direct
access to nearly 3000 different macros.
Hint: If you start to enter a number, then change your mind, simply
press any button outside the number pad to cancel the entry.
