1 PGM / PGM-PRV
MODE
When the operator right-clicks on the Effect Mode button, the
following contextual menu is displayed :
In this menu, PGM/PRV is only available if the on-air channel is
a odd numbered channel of the XT, for example the PGM must be
channel 1 and the associated PRV must be channel 2, channel 3
can be PGM with associated PRV channel 4, and finally channel
5 can be a PGM with channel 6 as the associated PRV.
PGM/PRV will not become active unless:
• The operator has the right to control both channels.
• Both channels are under the control of the IP Director (check
2 n d control settings).
• Either of the 2 channels are locked, by the user or another
user
When the operator selects 1 PGM, the play-list will be played in
cut mode on only 1 output. If the channel was in PGM/PRV mode,
the mode is automatically reset.
When the operator selects PGM/PRV, the play-list will be played
on 2 outputs (effects should be taken into account). The
channels are automatically set into PGM/PRV mode.
Note
In PGM/PRV mode, the PRV could be controlled in
PARALLEL with a secondary device, which could take
the control of the channel at any time.
ON-AIR
When the ON-AIR button is pressed, the ON-AIR status of the
channel is set. The ON-AIR button background is turned from
Grey to Red. The OSD of the channel displays the play-list
number in RED.
This only provides a visual warning that the current play-list is
On-Air. This can be selected manually on the tab or can be set
using a GPI. For more information on setting this parameter
using a GPI see the section on GPI and Auxiliary Track settings.
