iMC-Panel-100

Operator’s Guide (for Imagestore 750s)

The iMC-Panel-100’s separate display unit provide a set of menus and “soft” function buttons in
which you can do the following:

Select a channel (i.e., Imagestore 750, MCE, or MCPM).

Select a main source or an over source.

Choose a router source.

Select a video effect and alter its settings.

Manipulate audio.

Change transition rates.

Perform panel maintenance and updates.

View status and error messages.

Some menus have a scrollbar with which to select items. You can use an on-screen “slider” to
adjust parameter values or you can enter a value using a touchscreen keypad. In many cases,
you can use the ‘Scroll/Set’ knob of the button panel to adjust parameter values.

The recommended display unit is a touchscreen: you press or touch buttons on the screen itself
to perform menu selections.

S

Your panel will operate with a non-touchscreen display. In that case, you’ll use a mouse.
(There is no need for a keyboard).

Panel Buttons

Buttons appear in several colors and 3 brightness levels: off, low-tally, and high-tally.

Buttons allow you to choose sources and video effects and to make menu selections. Some
buttons display status. Pressing a button usually selects something. However, nothing happens
when you push a button that is disabled or off and nothing happens when you push a button
that merely displays status.

The buttons on the panel display the following colors:

In addition to these 12 colors, a button can be dark (that is, off, or having no color). High red and
high amber usually indicate warnings.

The following color scheme usually applies. Exceptions will be noted.

Non-selected state: low tally

green, blue, violet, orange, or white.

Selected state: high tally

green, blue, violet, orange, or red, or aqua.

Some buttons are toggles. Pressing a deselected toggle button will cause it to become selected.
Pressing a selected toggle button will make it deselected.

Some groups of buttons operate as a mutually exclusive set. Pressing a deselected button will
cause it to become selected and all other buttons in the set to become deselected. There are
two types of mutually exclusive buttons:

1 Pressing a selected button makes it deselected. (All other buttons in the set remain dese-

lected.)

2 Pressing a selected button has no effect: the button remains selected.
