Section 1 — Tally Protocol

buses of a pair are independent (video-video) outputs or are being used as
a video-key pair. Refer to

Table 5

.

Zodiak Systems

Many Zodiak outputs are hard wired to ME outputs. These outputs will not
be reported in tally contribution information. The remaining outputs are
programmable as aux buses (single buses or aux bus pairs). Zodiak output
pairing is different from Kalypso. Note that aux bus numbers may not cor-
respond to aux output numbers since this assignment is configurable.
Output messages are organized to put Zodiak's effects send buses on the
same output IDs as used for Kalypso effects send buses. Zodiak aux
outputs 6-13 (Zodiak's effects send outputs) are reported as outputs 41-48
(Kalypso's effects send outputs). Zodiak's switched preview is also
reported as Output 6. (
