Using Fully Automated mode

Setting and editing a master control primary event’s properties

Once a master control primary event is added to a schedule, you can set/edit the event’s
Transition settings by clicking the event’s transition symbol in the Schedule grid. The Select
transition
window appears and allows you to set the transition’s duration, rate and style.

If you intend on using Automation Assist mode (

page 4-1

) to control the schedule, ensure

that the iTX channel’s event transition rate setting (slow, medium, fast) is consistent with the
iMC panel’s transition rate settings.

Similarly, you can edit the event’s duration value by clicking on the Duration setting in the
Schedule grid. The Change duration tool appears and you can change the event’s current value.

Just like other iTX video events, selecting a master control primary event in the Schedule
Grid or Timeline displays a set of standard event properties in the Event Editor. These
properties can be edited and applied to the scheduled event.

Since there are no properties specific to master control primary events listed on the Event
Editor, we ask that you refer to the iTX Desktop Operator Manual for full descriptions and
instructions on setting these event properties.
