Menu Description
The graphical interface of the Lockit Menu combines ease of use with maximum flexibility for
experienced users and mostly consistent through all devices. Consecutive, interactive menus ease fail
safe configuration, guiding the user step by step through initial configuration.
Each menu pane with submenus features a
“Home”
symbol which will be preselected, allowing the user
to quickly move up one level when pressing the wheel erratically or just checking the settings.
Adjustments are available in 2 complexity levels which can be set from the System setting
Menu
.
“Standard”
is reduced to settings that have proven practical for the vast majority of productions. We
highly recommend leaving it sitting here unless you run in apparent limitations to your required
configuration.
“Extended”
discloses additional, complex configuration options to suffice even the most avid TC and
Sync Supervisor.
Depending on the devices capability this includes PAL, NTSC SD, and 720P sync formats, sync output for
3D
rigs, PPF, and applying an offset to the TC output for compensation of frame processing delay.
Clearly, these are options not required for most applications and there will be hardly reason to unleash
this level.
Note: Settings are persistent through a level change which allows you to start off with guided
default depth and tweak in “Extended” if required.
“Lock”
select this after applying desired settings will prevent from accidentally making changes to the
preconfiguration. To unlock, keep the wheel held left for 3 seconds until the notification that the menu
has been unlocked again.
Note: Due to the power logic on ACN-TL, ACN-LS, and ACN-ML, this message will also pop up
when shutting down these units with the required long press to the configuration wheel. It is
however not necessary to unlock the menu to power down. Just keep the button pressed for 3
seconds and the unit will shut down as desired.
Description below will use these conventions:
Underlined: marks a (sub) menu, pressing the navigation wheel will open the next lower level, which
may contain submenus or parameters.
“Quoted Italic”
: marks a parameter setting. This is the lowest level of a menu. Depending on the
available options these will be listed visible or can be scro
lled (separated by “/” in the explanation
below). Active values will be highlighted. To change use the navigation wheel to select and press to
