Operation

Note

Emergency Bypass operation becomes available after the Kalypso system,
Emergency Bypass frame, and the external Router have been properly
installed (see

page 12

) and configured (see

page 19

).

Emergency Bypass operation consists of selecting the desired background
and key sources, enabling and disabling bypass mode, and mixing the key
sources on and off air.

Note

Release 6.X software supports background and key source selection only
when Bypass Operating Mode is enabled on the Local Aux panel. Release 7.0
and later software supports source selection when the Local Aux panel is not
actually in Bypass Operating Mode, permitting pre-selection of sources
before activating the mode.

To Select Background Bypass Sources:

Press the button of the desired source on the top source selection bus of the
Local Aux panel. The

Unshift

and

Shift

modifier buttons for that bus can be

used to select additional sources if they have been mapped that way.

To Select Key Sources:

Note

Only key sources from the router can be selected. Direct key sources are fixed
and cannot be changed.

1.

Hold down the

Bypass Deleg

button, then press and release the

Key 1

or

Key 2

button, but continue to hold down

Bypass Deleg

. Press the button of

the source you wish to use with the key you selected. The

Unshift

and

Shift

modifier buttons for that bus can be used to select additional

sources. If that key is being output, there will be a cut to the new key
source.

2.

Release the

Bypass Deleg

button. This restores the bus to background

selection.

To Enable Bypass Operating Mode:

1.

Press and hold down the

Bypass Deleg

button on the Local Aux panel,

2.

Press the

Bypass Enable

button, then release both buttons.

The currently selected bypass background source will be taken on-air. Any
keys that are turned on will also be included in the bypass output.

To return to normal operation, press and hold down

Bypass Deleg

, then press

Bypass Enable

and release both buttons to toggle bypass mode off.

To Mix a Key On and Off:

1.

Press the

Key 1

or

Key 2

button (do not hold down the

Bypass Deleg

button). That key will mix to the other state (On if Off, or Off if On).
