MI 3040 Select Device

This is a dedicated MI 3040 used to read and communicate the production switcher PST tally status to the Jupiter control
system. The tally inputs are associated with a CP 38xx control panel output set as described in the configuration section
of this document. The Jupiter control system uses that tally information to automatically assign the output of the specified
control panel to the router output feeding the production switcher assignable input. When no tally input is received from
the production switcher, (an assignable input is not being used on the production switcher PST bus) the Jupiter control
system does nothing, leaving the control panel output where it was last set to. If the production switcher activates multiple
tally lines, the Jupiter control system uses the last activated tally to set the output on the control panel. Manual operation
of the control panel, including output selection, is unchanged.

MI 3040 Lock Device

This is a dedicated MI 3040 used to read and communicate the production switcher PGM tally status to the Jupiter control
system. The tally inputs are associated with a CP 38xx control panel output set as described in the configuration section
of this document. The Jupiter control system uses that tally information to automatically lock the specified routing switcher
output. This feature prevents an inadvertent switch from being made to an assignable input if it is currently being used
on the PGM bus of the production switcher. If the production switcher activates multiple tally lines, the Jupiter control
system will lock all associated routing switcher outputs. When no tally input is received from the production switcher,
(an assignable input is not being used on the production switcher PGM bus) the Jupiter control system removes all locks
controlled by this application. Locks activated by the application and currently in place can be overridden (removed) using
the routing switcher control panel. Locks activated by the panel are removed if this same source (router output) is placed
on the production switcher PGM bus and then removed from the PGM bus. Manual operation of the control panel, including
output selection, is unchanged.

SOFTWARE CONFIGURATION

The operator can use either one or both new MI 3040 applications. To configure both portions, the following items must
be defined in the configuration editor:

1.

All three devices (the CP 38xx and the two MI 3040 devices) must be configured on the same control board.

2.

Select the “3040SLCT” (MI 3040 control panel output assignment application) in the MPK Devices table for the MI
3040 to be used for the PST tallies.

3.

Select the “3040LOCK” (MI 3040 output lock application) in the MPK Devices table for the MI 3040 to be used for
the PGM tallies.

4.

Associate the MI3040SLCT device to the appropriate CP 38xx panel in the MPK Devices table by entering the name
of the CP 38xx panel in the MI3040SLCT device’s “Inp Set” field.

5.

Associate the MI3040LOCK device to the appropriate CP 38xx panel in the MPK Devices table by entering the name
of the CP 38xx panel in the MI3040LOCK device’s “Inp Set” field. NOTE: There is no requirement to use the same
CP 38xx panel with this device as with the MI3040SLCT device, although it is recommended that they be the same.

6.

Select the 40 outputs to be associated to the 40 PST & PGM tallies by entering the tally input numbers in each
associated CP 38xx output set’s “Button” column. The connections to the respective MI 3040s opto isolators from
the PGM and PST tallies must be the same.
