RUNNING THE SHOW
Layer Selection
Backgrounds, frames, PIPs, and logos are all considered
layers. Layers which are selected will be highlighted on the
touchscreen. To select a layer, there are several options:
• Selecting Layers from the touchscreen: At any time when the Preset Page screen is open, a layer may be
selected by directly touching it on the touchscreen. Touching another layer will release your current selection
and select the new layer. To select multiple layers, or remove a layer from your selection, you will need to use
the selection modifier keys on the Vertige™ keyboard, i.e. [+] or [-].
• Selecting Layers from the Layer Selection buttons: At any time, a layer or group of layers may be selected
by directly pressing one of the Layer Selection buttons (please read the user manual for more information
on this topic).
Source selection
The Source section allows you to:
• Fill any layer or group of layer with a source.
• Fill any native layer or group of native layer with a native
source (the native mode must be enabled).
All sources and native sources have to be defined before (sources and their corresponding key bindings are
usually created automatically by the Iteration Wizard whereas native sources have to be created manually).
Use the left/right arrow to navigate into the source page. Then simply press the desired source in order to fill
the selected layer(s).
Transition section
You have different options to transition from Preview to
Program:
- The T-Bar for a manual smooth transition
- The Take button for an automatic timed transition
- Independent faders for a manual transition per screen.
Below each fader you will find a screen button, you can use the left/right arrow to move this screen list. Each
fader will take the screen which is written on the button.
Preset selection
A Preset contains all of the layer information about all of
the layers on all of the selected screens. Presets stored
using the Vertige™ console are stored within the Vertige™
show, and can be exported and imported to another
console. By default, the unit will operate in preset Load
mode.
To save a preset, first create the content that you wish to save on either the program or preview screens. To
save a preset from Program, make sure that the Program button is selected. To save a preset from Preview,
make sure that the Preview button is selected. To save a preset, press the
Save
button next to the preset bank
and page navigation buttons. Then navigate to the preset slot that you wish to save to, and press once on
the desired preset button. The preset will turn yellow, indicating a successful save. If the preset slot was not
empty, press twice to overwrite.
To load a preset, first be sure that the Preview button is selected if you wish to load the preset to Preview, or
that the Program button is selected if you wish to load the preset to Program. To Load a preset, make sure
that the
LOAD
button next to the preset bank and navigation buttons has been selected. Next, select the
desired preset that you wish to load. The preset will be loaded to program or preview, depending on which
button has been selected. If you have loaded your preset to preview, you will need to press
TAKE
to view it
on the Program screens. If you load a preset directly to program, the new attributes including sources, size,
position, border, etc will cut into place.
Presets can be saved, loaded and renamed directly from the Preset page. (Please read the user manual for
more information on this topic).
