Signal Routing
Button Assignment (Source to Button Mapping)
Source to button mapping makes it possible to organize sources on
Kayenne XL Package control panels to suit your personal preferences. For
example, cameras can be grouped into a set of buttons on the left side or the
right side of a button row, or in any way that is desired or convenient.
Source mapping is distinct from source definition, as source mapping only
involves the location of sources on the control panel and does not affect the
inputs or names defined for the sources.
Note EMEM effects store Source IDs, not the source select buttons, so remapping
sources does not change the appearance of recalled effects.
You can also assign sources to buttons using the Sidepanel program.
Key Memory
Key parameters can be saved to a separate key memory for every Kayak
HD system source. These parameters can be applied automatically when-
ever that source is selected.
Buses and Crosspoints
A bus is technically defined as a signal path where one of several available
inputs can be selected to feed a single output. A crosspoint is an electronic
switch that enable a signal to pass when the switch is closed. On video
switchers, a bus can be constructed containing a series of crosspoints,
which permits selecting which one of several incoming signals will be sent
out the bus. In
Figure 1 on page 29 , source 2 has been selected on the back-
ground A bus. This signal can now be called background video and is avail-
able for further processing.

Buttons on a control panel can be used to control the switching of cross-
points. The buttons are usually arranged horizontally, making it easy to
imagine the available signals coming in from the top, and the single bus
