Under automation control, Auto E-E behavior is slightly different than under GUI control. The
server will remain in E-E ON mode until a transport control command (Play, Stop, Jog, etc) is
received. After receiving such a command, the server will remain in E-E OFF mode until record
mode is entered. In record mode, E-E mode is ON. As with GUI operation, automation
controllers may send E-E ON and E-E OFF commands to override the automatic operation.
Note that when in E-E mode the video outputs are not timed to the genlock signal. This will not
be noticeable when connected directly to a monitor. However, there may be timing offsets when
feeding timed routers or switchers. The symptoms of this will vary depending on the particular
equipment, including horizontal picture shift or timing error indications. If the input is not
synchronous with genlock, it may roll vertically. E-E mode is not intended to be used on-air, only
as a production tool.
All VANC lines are passed through E-E regardless of which lines are selected for recording.
Similarly, all embedded audio is passed through even though only the first 8 channels are
recorded.
