PRIMARY CHANNELS

Important
The notions of Primary Channel and Controlled Channel are ver y

important and will be constantly referred to in this manual.

A channel is “controlled” when the operator can control it with the jog dial. In this

case, the words “FULL CTRL” are present on the top of the OSD of the output

monitor of that channel.

5.5.2 P

HANNEL

The primary channel is the first controlled channel. It is identified by stars around

its name on the OSD of the output monitor and on the LCD display of the Remote

Panel (ex: *PGM1*).
Examples:

In 3PGM mode, if the operator controls PGM2 and PGM3, the primary channel

is PGM2.

In PGM+PRV mode with PRV CTRL OFF, the primary channel is PGM.

In PGM+PRV mode with PRV CTRL ON, the primary channel is PRV.

5.6 PREFERENCE MODE (PREF)

When this option is ON and a clip is recalled, the preferred camera will be

displayed on the main output, even if another camera angle was previous ly loaded

on that output.
The preferred camera is the one, which was on the primary output channel when

the clip was created.
The second preferential camera (“secondary camera”) is the one that was loaded

on the next channel when the clip was created.
In the Clip screen, the first preferential camera is indicated by a star: 111B* and

the second preferential camera is indicated by 2 dashes: 111B=.
When the preference option is disabled, the PGM output stays on the camera

currently selected when the clip is called.
