E-MEM Operations
Other Kalypso environment variables to consider for successful reuse of
effects are listed below.
• All the external devices required are available for use (Profile VDRs,
GVEous, PBus devices, GPI outputs, etc.).
• Correct clips loaded on the Profile or other DDRs.
• Correct stills and clips cached on the Kalypso Still Store.
• If operating in Multi Suite mode, the suites should be setup for effect
sharing by properly acquiring logical devices in each suite. Also suffi-
cient resources need to be available in the suite. If resources are not
acquired, those portions of the effect will be silently ignored. If
resources are acquired after loading effects, the effects will need to be
reloaded.
• If using a router interface, router sources and destinations need to be
defined correctly and available, and any required R-MEMs loaded.
E-MEM 300 Mode
Overview
300 Mode is an alternative Master E-MEM method of operation that mimics
the behavior of the Grass Valley Group Model 300 switcher. In this mode,
Master E-MEM Learn operations store the register numbers of the indi-
vidual M/Es, allowing the recall of different combinations of M/E registers
with a single button press. In this operating mode Master E-MEM Learn
operations do not change any existing contents of the individual M/E
E-MEM registers. Only M/Es are affected. Other E-MEM levels (DPM, Still
Store, etc.) behave the same in either Normal or 300 Mode. The current
Master E-MEM operating mode is saved and loaded as a Suite Preference.
When operating in 300 Mode, the user Learns the first keyframe of each
effect into individual M/E E-MEM registers using that M/E E-MEM sub-
panel. If an effect has additional keyframes, they are created using Master
E-MEM keyframe editing (delegating that M/E and using Insert, Modify,
etc.). When all the individual M/E effects registers are complete, the user
selects the desired register on each individual M/E E-MEM subpanel, del-
egates the M/E levels involved, and then Learns that Master E-MEM reg-
ister. Recalling that Master E-MEM register then brings up the individual
M/E registers that were learned (along with the settings of any other non-
M/E delegated levels).
In general, you will need to decide which Master E-MEM operating mode
you wish to use, and then build all your effects for use in only that mode.
While effects built in one Master E-MEM mode will recall and run on a
system operating in the other mode, the results will probably not be what
you expect. If you find your effects behaving oddly, check that the correct
Master E-MEM operating mode is selected.
