NTRODUCTION

The Tally feature allows the users to automatically create a clip for each change
of camera performed on the director’s cut and to add all the clips to a playlist. The
clips are created automatically by the server as it receives GPIs IN from a
switcher when the director changes the camera angle.

UNCTION

You will set up the Tally function on page 4 of the Setup Configuration.

To set up the tally function, proceed as follows:

1.

Press the key to select the Tally field value and press the and
arrows to set the Tally function to ‘ON’.

2.

In the Add clips to PL field, specify the LSM ID of the playlist to which you

want to add the tally clips.

3.

In the Clips guardbands field, specify how much the guardbands should be
in seconds.

4.

In the GPIs IN section, for a given GPI,

select the REC on which the director’s cut is performed

define the ‘Mark Tly’ function on this GPI IN

The tally function is now active: When the server receives a ‘Mark tally’ GPI, an IN
point is marked on the corresponding record train (for ex. cam a). When a second

‘Mark Tally’ GPI is received on a different record train (for ex. cam b), the server
marks an OUT point on the first record train (cam a) and an IN point on the second
record train. All the clips created this way are added to the defined playlist.

For all protocols (excepted AVSP), use the channel assignment (PGM1-6), not

the device protocol type (Sony BVW75, Odetics).

AVSP does not require any GPI IN setting in the Setup menu because they are

defined through specific serial AVSP commands.
