Working with a Monitor Wall
Working with a Monitor Wall
The master control system you are using can be set up to work with a monitor wall or a portion of a
monitor wall. A monitor wall can display up to 24 sources from the master control system. The
monitor can display the sources of the source group currently selected at your panel.
There are several points you should keep in mind:
• If you change the sources in a source group, those changes will be reflected at the monitor wall.
• The monitor wall can also display the program, preset, clean-feed, and monitor outputs of the
currently selected Imagestore 750, and can display the aux output associated with that Imag-
estore 750.
• Your panel can be configured so that when you switch to a different channel, the monitor wall
switches to the layout associated with the channel. Your panel can also have buttons with which
you can change the monitor wall layout manually.
Different Imagestore 750s can be configured (and connected) differently and so can behave differ-
ently.
Working with the Aux Buttons
The aux/user button row comprises a number of main source buttons and some number of config-
urable function buttons. The main source buttons are exactly identical to the sources of the preset
and program button rows. They control the router sources that can be routed to an auxiliary device
such as a waveform monitor.
The auxiliary device is optional.
If your master control system has an auxiliary device, simply press any main source button of the
aux/user row to direct the source signal to the device.
‘Aux Bus Follow’
Imagestore 750s in the master control system have an ‘Aux Bus Follow’ option. This option has 3
choices: ‘none’, ‘PGM’, or ‘PST:
When the option is ‘PGM’, the aux bus “follows” the program bus. That means that whatever
source you select on the program bus is also selected on the aux bus.
When the option is ‘PST’, the aux bus “follows” the preset bus and whatever source you select on
the preset bus is also selected on the aux bus.
When the option is ‘none’, the aux bus does not “follow” either bus and operates normally.
Note that when the option is ‘PGM’ or ‘PST’, you can still use the aux buttons, normally, to switch
sources to your aux output.
