1.3 TALLY OPTIONS
1.3.1 SOFTWARE LICENSE FOR TALLY OPERATION DS 0141
D
Includes protocols DS0141 and DS0143. This port protocol license entitles the
purchaser to use the Tally option. Tally software translates the internal control
information for further use via serial RS485 ports. Only one license is needed
for control of various distribution units or Facility Control Systems (e.g. Jupiter).
Depending on the number of these units, several Tally channels are available
(known as red, yellow, green Tally) per running Application.
Tally Ch.1: Standard. OnAir source signalling.
Preset Tally: Tally for selected sources not being put OnAir (”yellow”).
Tally Ch. 2: Green Tally like Channel 1, with separate OnAir control input.
Direct connection of tally indicators only via separately available distribution
units (e.g. MI-3040). Source indication assignment dedicated to specific output
pins.
MI-3040 Emulation allows use of MI-3040 units driven by Jupiter Control Sys-
tem. Up to 6 MI-3040 units will then be simulated by using a separate DD35
mainframe port.
