4.16 Controlling Talk and Listen buttons
Panels and direct four-wires that have been assigned to conferences and Port Viewers display a red
Talk button and a green Listen button on the right hand of the item [ ].
Clicking a Talk / Listen button turns it off. The button is no longer displayed on the panel or four-wire
(for example, . ).
Note:
Permanent members of a conference cannot have their Talk/Listen button turns off. This can only be
done in EHX.
Clicking the space where the Talk / Listen button was formerly located turns the button on again. The
button is displayed again on the panel or four-wire.
Tip: You must be in Assignment mode to turn Talk / Listen buttons on and off on panels and four-
wires.
Important note:
If you turn off both the Talk and the Listen buttons, the panel or four-wire is effectively excluded from
the conference or Port Viewer, and removed from the list of members.To restore the panel or four-
wire (and Talk / Listen labels), you must reassign the item to the conference or Port Viewer.
Idents and monitors (split label ports) do not display Talk / Listen buttons (see next section).
Keygroups display a panel on the right hand side of the item [ ] to show if the group is
active talk (
red ) or active listen ( green ). However, you cannot change the talk or listen status of a
keygroup in Production Maestro Pro.
4.17 Idents and monitors (split label ports)
In Configure Palette mode, split label ports are displayed on the canvas as both:
• Paired idents (Talk capability (
red )) and monitors (Listen capability ( green ))
[ ].
Note:
It is possible to grant Talk and Listen capability to idents / ‘Talk’ keys in some user panels
(for example, pushbutton V-Series panels, and 4000 series panels) in EHX.
However, idents are always treated as Talk only in Production Maestro Pro.
• Four-wires [ ].
You can assign the ident [ ] and monitor [ ] parts of a split label as separate items to
a conference or Port Viewer.
The ident is added as a Talk only member. The monitor is added as a Listen only member.
If you assign a split label as a four-wire [ ] to a conference, it is added as separate
Talk only and Listen only members.
