Selection Buttons
Selection Buttons
Selection buttons are dedicated buttons; they are not configurable. Each selects or
deselects the item on the corresponding line of the display. Button 1 (left) selects what is on
line 1 (the top) and so on.
Selection buttons support level selection in XY mode and device selection in multi-
destination mode. Operators can scroll through multiple pages of levels in X-Y mode and
through multiple pages of devices in MD mode. The operator makes selections from
whatever appears on the display at any given time.
Selection buttons also allow operators to select menus when the panel is in menu mode (or
in setup mode) and to select salvos when the panel is in salvo mode.
Selection (of either levels or MD devices) is affected by ‘Hold’ mode. (See the Hold button,
page 25 .) The operator may toggle hold mode at any time. Using the selection buttons
follows hold mode or non-hold mode, whichever is in effect at the moment. Non-hold
mode is the default
— unless you specify otherwise in the Panel Options .
Selection Button Behavior
XY Mode
When the panel is in XY mode, the selection buttons represent the virtual levels present in
the display. If there are fewer than 8 levels in the level set of the current destination device,
the rightmost selection buttons will be dark (disabled) and the bottom lines of the display
will be empty.
If a level is selected, the selection button is high-tally, and there is a rectangular marker at
the right end of the line in the display that shows the level. If a level is not selected, the
selection button is low-tally, and there is no marker for that level.
If the level does not exist for the currently selected destination, the matching selection
button is dark.
If there are more levels than selection buttons, the ‘Page Up’ and ‘Page Down’ buttons
activate and the operator can scroll through the levels.
Virtual Level
Expander In X-Y mode, this button causes the alphanumeric display to show virtual
levels at the
lowest level of grouping (with the most detail). The button
affects only virtual levels that have been grouped. See Level Grouping on
page 39 .
The button has no effect in multi-destination mode.
This button has no configuration options.
XY/MD
Mode
Switches the panel between X-Y mode and multi-destination mode.
The button is always green for XY mode and amber for multi-destination
mode.
