DISPLAYS

Both 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 stri

pe has been delegated (or ‘assigned’) to

control the Main switcher, one or more M/Es, or for TriCaster, one of its supplementary routed
output.

2.

The blue LCD surfaces 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 surfaces as a further aid when making selections.

3.

Another LCD strip appears in the

Media

Players

group at right in the first stripe (and

third, for 4-Stripe).

Item 1 above raises the question, “How do I

delegate a stripe to control the desired

module?” Let’s go on to talk about this,
beginning by discussing what “delegating”

means in the context of a control surface.
