About Macros, Suites, and Surfaces
K-Frame systems can be configured as multiple suites, and each suite can
have up to two control surfaces. Each suite has a completely independent
set of Macros, and both surfaces can run or record a macro at the same time.
For example, one operator using suite 1 surface A can run one macro, while
another operator using suite 1 surface B is recording a different Macro. The
set of Macros in each suite are shared by both surfaces in that suite.
Multiple operators cannot simultaneously record the same macro or run a
macro that is being recorded or loaded by the other surface. If user attempt
to do so the macro button will turn purple to indicate the macro is busy.
GPI Macros
A Macro can also be triggered from a GPI input. Any GPI Macro is consid-
ered triggered from surface B of that suite. This ensures surface A will be
able to record or run a Macro even during the running of a GPI triggered
Macro. Surface B operators will need to coordinate their Macro use around
any GPI triggered Macros.
Bus Linking
You can create single and multiple bus links, referred to as Parallel and Cas-
cading links. Also, you can define and associate one of the 15 new definable
Source Substitution Tables to a bus (each bus link can be associated with
any source table), and save bus links as part of an E-MEM. Bus links are
E-MEMable and their enables are Keyframeable.
Bus Link
is an E-MEM sub-level in the User Setups, Suite Prefs, E-MEM Prefs
menu and therefore all the features and controls of a GV Switcher sub-level
apply.
Bus Linking Examples
A typical use of Bus Linking is to have the buses of one ME follow the selec-
tions on another with a few source substitutions. For example, if there's a
special camera only used for the primary customer's feed, a Linked bus
