Overview
There are two ways to control Ki Pro Quad: from the front panel or remotely from a web
browser connected via the Quad’s Ethernet RJ45 connector. This chapter discusses
controlling and using Ki Pro Quad from its front panel. (See
In Chapter 2 we discussed the panel controls overall, so you may want to read and
understand that material first. In this Chapter we introduce each of the front panel's
modes and the various menu parameters.
First we introduce the two basic front panel modes, TRANSPORT and MENU, followed by
how the SELECT and ADJUST buttons operate in each of these two panel modes.
The TRANSPORT mode is the default mode—it controls basic PLAY, STOP, FF, REV, etc.
functions. In the TRANSPORT mode, the Select buttons (up or down) cycle through the
clips in the currently selected storage slot (like previous/next), and the Adjust buttons
allow single-stepping, frame forward or backward.
Line 1:
Displays the current clip on the left side and the current slot and percentage of the media
capacity remaining on the right side.
Line 2:
Displays the current reel number on the left side and the timecode for the clip being
recorded or played on the right side.
An example display for the TRANSPORT mode (default screen) is shown below:
