Controlled and Primary Channels

Controlled Channel

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.

Primary Channel

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 3 PGM mode, if the operator controls PGM 2 and PGM 3, the primary channel is
PGM 2.

In 1PGM+PRV mode with PRV CTRL OFF, the primary channel is PGM.

In 1PGM+PRV mode with PRV CTRL ON, the primary channel is PRV.

Secondary Controller

Introduction

The 2nd CTRL function available on the Remote Panel in the main operational menu
allows the operator to swap the control of one or several play channels between the EVS
Remote and a third-party controller.

Both controllers receive permanently the status of the channel(s), but only one controller
at a time is able to actually control a channel: this is called the exclusive secondary
control mode. The secondary controllers are defined in the Operational Setup menu of the
remote (p.2.2).
