Preset Design Panel
The workspace in the Preset: design panel is
where new system presets are created and details of a
selected preset are viewed.
• Whether creating a new or modifiying a current
preset, devices are dragged from the devices
list into the design area to create a preset (see
Creating Presets on page 116).
•
A new preset is saved the first time using the Save
As button. Updates are saved using Save.
• Click Cancel to discard change made to a preset.
• Save As copies a selected preset to a new name.
• Devices are removed from a preset by highlighting
the device, then right-clicking and selecting
Delete .
• When a preset is selected from the Preset list (see
Preset Manager Page on page 96), the design
workspace displays the configuration of all devices
used in that preset.
Preset Design – Device Icons
Device icons used in the preset design area are the same as those used on the Device
page (see Devices Page Overview on page 39).
The icon used in a preset for certain devices depends on the device function in that preset.
• The function of VNM Recorder devices is set only when the channel is placed in
a preset. When the first channel is placed, all channels are set to the same mode
(recorder or player).
• A codec device can be used as an encoder or decoder. The appropriate icon is shown
when the device is placed in the preset.
Preset Design – Connection Rules
Preset connections are subject to connection rules. In the table below, " X " represents
connections not allowed or invalid combinations for devices in a preset.

Additionally, it is not possible to place fixed function devices such as encoder-only or
decoder-only devices into an illegal position in the preset.
NOTES:
• In unicast transport mode, the maximum number of connections made to an
encoder is four.
• It is not possible to record VNE 250 source material that is HDCP encrypted with
the VNR 100 or the VNM 5-Channel recorder.
• HDCP protected content cannot be displayed by VNM 200/225 decoders, VNS 104
and VNM Software Decoders.
