Sender TPG (Test Pattern Generator)

The 

Sender TPG

 page allows test patterns to be applied to senders on a spigot-by-spigot basis.

The page displays a pane for each spigot in use, as shown above; captions can be defined, TPG 
enabled or disabled and audio configured for each. However, when spigots are linked, only the 
Master spigot can be configured; the Slave spigots inherit their configuration from the Master, 
and have their controls disabled.

Sender TPG

 page Linked Spigot Display

The following options are available for each spigot:

If a test pattern is applied, either a pattern or a tone, the spigot cannot be used for streaming 
any other essence. 

Click 

Show Caption

 to overlay a caption on the video essence.
