Supervisory Control CP0050/XCP0050
The Supervisory Control option gives a designated operator the ability to physically disconnect the
transmit audio lines from one or more parallel-connected console channels with the touch of a single
button. This is used to lock out any parallel consoles from transmitting on a specific channel or group of
channels.
Activating Supervisor Control
To activate or deactivate supervisor control for a selected channel, press the toolbar
SUPERVISOR
button for less than one second. When the toolbar
SUPERVISOR
button is pressed, supervisor control is
activated for the selected channel. The
SUPERVISOR
button’s border turns red to provide indication
that the selected channel has supervisor control activated.
To activate or deactivate supervisor control for any channel with a channel supervisor button, simply
press and release the channel supervisor button. If activated, the channel supervisor indicator will light.
If the channel is the selected channel, the toolbar SUPERVISOR indicator will light as well.
While supervisor control is activated for the selected channel, the right side of the status line in the
information window indicates SUPERVISOR. To deactivate supervisor control for the selected channel,
press the toolbar
SUPERVISOR
button a second time for less than one second or press the channel
supervisor button on the select channel if available.
The
SUPERVISOR
button indicator located in the Navigator tool bar indicates the state of the console’s
supervisor option while in normal operation. If the
SUPERVISOR
button’s border is red, it indicates that
parallel consoles are not allowed to transmit on the selected channel. Other channels can also have
supervisor control activated as well. If the button border is flashing, it indicates that the selected channel
does not have supervisor control activated, but another channel does have supervisor activated.
To deactivate supervisor control on all channels without having to select each channel in turn, press and
hold the toolbar
SUPERVISOR
button for more than one second. This deactivates supervisor control on
all channels removing the need to manually select each channel and deactivate supervisor control for
each.
Supervisory Control Using Multi-Select
Upon entering the multi-select mode, any channels that currently have supervisor control activated are
highlighted in the information window.
If the
SUPERVISOR
button is pressed while in multi-select mode and multi-select supervisor is
deactivated, all channels in the selection that have been programmed using CARD Suite software to have
supervisor control enabled are highlighted on the information screen. When supervisor control is
deactivated while in multi-select mode, all channels in the selection that did not have supervisor control
activated prior to entering multi-select have supervisor control deactivated. Note that global deactivation
is not available while in multi-select mode.
If the operator activates/deactivates supervisor on a channel using its channel supervisor button while in
multi-select, the channel supervisor button indicator will indicate the supervisor state of the channel
outside of multi-select regardless of the multi-select supervisor state.
