To assign Override Macros:
In some installations it may be necessary or handy for the presenter/host to trigger
other ‘special’ Macros manually. This is ideal for running a show open/bumper, going
to a commercial break/recess page or for disabling/enabling the automation to take
over manual control. There are 4 General Purpose Inputs (GPIs) per VOX unit that
are connected through a 15-pin connector, a basic Host Override panel is also
provided, but a custom box may also be used.
The LEDs also provide feedback for the panel. When no LED is illuminated then no
Macro has been assigned to that GPI button. When the LED is illuminated solid red
then a Macro has been assigned. When the LED is flashing slowly, the GPI has been
triggered and it is waiting for the previous Macro to end before the new Macro will
start. If the LED is flashing quickly then the GPI button has been selected and the
assigned Macro is running.
