Audio Breakaway - All Audio Groups from a Single Source

In order to implement an Audio breakaway of all audio groups from a
single background bus source, you must perform the following steps:

1.

Depress and hold the

Audio

Source Control button.

While the button is depressed, it will remain illuminated. The Audio
Source Control button must remain depressed throughout the breakaway
operation.

Note

On the GUI control panel, the Audio Source Control button will toggle on and
off with each touch since it cannot be held down.

If the error screen in

Figure 131

appears, release the

Audio

Source

Control button, and then select a valid monitor point (either Program,
Preset, or AUX) in the Audio Control Home screen. Depress and hold
the

Audio

Source Control Button again.

Note

Releasing the Audio Source Control button at any time during the Audio
Breakaway process will result in all operations to that point in the process
being cancelled and the Audio Source Control button illumination will be
extinguished.

With the

Audio

Source Control button depressed, the Audio Control

panel screen will display either

Figure 132

Audio Breakaway Status

Screen

or

Figure 133

Multi-Source Audio Breakaway - Source Selection

Screen

. The screen that is initially displayed will be the one last used in

the most recent audio breakaway operation.

To breakaway all audio groups for a particular background bus (PGM, PST,
or AUX):

1.

Press the desired source button on the appropriate bus.

The source from which the audio is broken away will tally low (dim illumi-
nation). To perform a breakaway of selected groups from one or more
sources, proceed to

Audio Breakaway - One or More Audio Groups from Mul-

tiple Sources

.

2.

Release the

Audio

Source Control button.

The Audio Source Control button illumination will extinguish and the
breakaway will be active.

If a breakaway is active on the PGM, PST or AUX bus, selecting a different
source on the same bus (without the

Video

or

Audio

Source Control button

depressed) will result in the de-selection of all breakaways on that bus and
the selection of the “as configured” desired source. If a breakaway is
desired with the new source, the steps above must be repeated.
