Device Type Defines the type of hardware that the Master Control plugin will connect
to for this channel. Choose IS750Device.
iTX XPT Specifies the crosspoint on the Imagestore device that is selected when
the next item in the schedule is not a master control event. Normally, you
should specify the crosspoint that has the iTX Pandora video for that
channel. It is used only to put Pandora back in circuit when a primary
master control event ends. The default is 0.
Delay Specify the number of frames (positive or negative) by which to delay
commands sent to the IS-750. This compensates for latency in the
system and ensures that transitions on the mixer are frame accurate. The
default is 0.
