Operation
Summary
In X-Y mode, the selection buttons represent levels. Each displays 3 lines of text:
The top line of text identifies the current source and should be identical to the matching entry in
the ‘Status’ column of the display. The middle line identifies the preset source, not visible in the
display. If there is no ‘Take’ pending, the preset fields will be blank. The bottom row of text shows
a level for the current destination and should be identical to the matching entry in the ‘Level/
Dest’ column of the display.
When a preset is pending for a take, the selection buttons turn yellow. After a take where there is
nothing preset, the selection buttons revert to their original color.
If the current destination had a breakaway, the sources will be different across the levels. If the
destination does not include a particular level, that button will be dark, but it will show the level
name, as is the case with ‘HD’, and ‘Timecode’ here. (Audio 3 is available but not selected and is
therefore low-tally.)
Level buttons for which there is no level defined remain blank. Lines in the display for which
there is no level defined also remain blank.
The display and the selection buttons scroll independently. Use the fixed up/down buttons
next to the display to scroll the display and use ‘Page Up’ and ‘Page Down’ buttons to scroll
the levels on the selection buttons.
Level Mapping
If a level was level-mapped, the display shows a plus sign next to the level name.
See
on page 54 for usage information.
MD Devices
In multi-destination (MD) mode, a set of selection buttons presents a set of MD devices. To
perform an MD take, you assign sources to as many MD devices as you like and then press ‘Take’.
The multiple takes occur simultaneously. Call these “dest” buttons for the sake of simplicity.
To assign a source to an MD destination, select the destination using a selection button and
locate and press a source button. You might have to scroll the display to find the MD destination
of interest. (In hold mode, you can assign a source to several MD destinations at once.)
