•

The specific target of

Joystick

operations at any moment is determined by a set of

Joystick delegate

buttons, outlined in red in Figure 286, and by

source

selection (whether manual selection using

PTZ

SEL

, or by enabling

FOLLOW PREV

–

see notes in Section 23.1.6).

•

The operation performed on the delegated target is determined by a set of

Control Mode

buttons at

right, outlined in green in Figure 286.

ELEGATES

Let’s consider the

delegates

first. Nine of the buttons in this group rely on the current

M/E Delegate

selection

(see the heading M/E DELEGATE in Section 23.1.4 to designate which M/E is addressed. These are:

•

A-D

–

When the delegated

M/E

is configured to use a LiveSet effect, selecting a button in this group

assigns the joystick to control the corresponding primary video layer of that

M/E

•

KEY 1-4

–

Selecting a button in this group assigns the joystick to control the corresponding

KEY

layer

of the delegated

M/E

•

LIVESET

–

You might think of this button

can as “BACKGROUND” in current software versions

, since

it not only assigns the joystick to LiveSet zoom and pan control, but also provides similar functionality
for any source type when supported in the software feature set.

DSKs, of course, are unique to TriCaster’s main

Switcher

. This buttons in this group are not dependent on

any other delegate.

•

DSK 1-4

–

Selecting a button in this group assigns the joystick to control the corresponding

DSK

layer

of the

main Switcher

•

SHTL

–

Press this button with

SHIFT

to assign the joystick to control the

Media Player

camera that is

currently delegated. To shuttle a

Media Player

, move the joystick horizontally (as viewed from above).

ONTROL

ODE

Let’s turn now to but

tons that govern the

Joystick

operating mode.

Note: Some control modes are invalid for certain joystick delegates. For example, the Rotate and Crop

functions aren’t supported by PTZ cameras or LiveSets. Invalid control mode selections are ignored.
