Master Control

Software Configuration

Note: If this value is too small, a flash will be seen on-air as the A/B mixer cuts back to the A
input before the physical switch is made.

Router timeout.

This parameter is used predominantly for monitoring and logging NV9000 communications.

We recommend that you leave this at the default value of 500

ms

Router logging level.

This parameter allows you to control the granularity of router logs.

Note: If you are experiencing problems relating to router switching, set the router logging
level to ‘Everything (very verbose)’ before retrieving message logs. After the fault has been
diagnosed, return to the default setting ‘Fatal and important messages’ to avoid excessive
message log activity.

Channel Transitions

When an operator is performing complex transitions (i.e. A/B mixing with keyer fades), it is
important that the durations of different parts of the transition relate to one another correctly.

You can control this using a global transition mode (automation, slow, medium, fast) which
applies to A/B mixing, keyer fades, keyer fades-to-black, and voice-overs. To give added flexi-
bility, each A/B mixer profile and each keyer has its own duration overrides.

Note: Transitions started by automation will always use automation rates. Slow, medium
and fast apply only to transitions started at panels.

Transition Parameters

Choose ‘Configuration Mode’ in the top right drop-down menu. From ‘System Settings’, select
‘Miscellaneous > Channel Transitions’:
