If Preview Panel Groups are also enabled, this bar will display the first 8
camera units for the primary group across the top and the first 8 camera units
for the preview group across the bottom of the bar.

Camera unit status colour code

The colour of the camera button indicates the current status of the camera.

Selecting Camera Units

Only camera buttons that are white or blue can be selected from the touch screen (a
green button indicates that camera is currently selected).

Depending on your user account privileges, if a camera unit is under control of
another networked control panel (button coloured Blue) you may be able to take
control of that camera using the take rudely function – see Camera control on
page 73
.

If you have permission to ‘take rudely’, selecting the camera displays a confirmation
dialog (‘Device is being used by another operator, continue?’). Selecting ‘Yes’ will
transfer control of the camera to your control panel and the button turns Green.

NOTE: The camera buttons on the control panel are always the same as the

buttons currently displayed on the touch screen.
