Operator’s Guide (for Imagestore 750s)
The preset buttons also includes main source buttons and layer buttons. The function
assigned to a program button is also assigned to the preset button directly in front of it.
Whatever main source, video effects, and voice-overs are selected on the preset bus form
the
preset output of the Imagestore 750 that is currently controlled by the panel.
(In some Imagestore 750 literature, the preset output is called the preview output.)
Source buttons of the program and preset buses (and aux bus) can be configured with spe-
cific colors (green, yellow, red, or white).
See Preset and Program Buttons on page 29 for detail.
S The preset and program buses behave differently under different transition options. See
Transition Options on page 110.
3 Preview/user buttons
Although this row of buttons is a set of “preview” buttons when the panel is controlling an
MCE or MCPM, it is a set of customer-definable buttons when the panel is controlling an
Imagestore 750. (Among the customer-definable buttons can be menu buttons.)
4 Aux/user buttons
When the panel is controlling an Imagestore 750, this button row contains aux buttons and
customer-definable buttons. (Among the customer-definable buttons can be “menu” but-
tons.)
The aux buttons are main source buttons. The main sources are the same sources as on the
preset and program button rows. These buttons allow you to direct a main source to an aux-
iliary device such as a monitor.
The number of main sources is configurable. Consequently, the number of customer-defin-
able buttons is also configurable.
S Imagestore 750s have an “aux bus follow” option. Depending on how this option is set,
your aux buttons might follow the program or preset bus or might remain independent.
When they follow the program bus, whatever source becomes selected on the program
bus is also selected on the aux bus. When they follow the preset bus, whatever source
becomes selected on the preset bus is also selected on the aux bus.
In any case, you can always use the aux buttons, normally, regardless of what was
selected on the preset or program bus.
S If the Imagestore 750 is not configured for controlling an auxiliary device, the aux button
row’s source buttons are disabled (dark).
5 Configurable buttons
The configurable button section includes 16 buttons with LCD legends, each of which may
be programmed to perform functions such as channel selection, menu selection, or source
group selection. Some of these buttons can function as status indicators. See
Configurable
Button Section on page 26 for detail.
Buttons in other sections of the panel are also configurable.
6 LCD touchscreen
Using the color LCD touchscreen, you can adjust parameters and control system functions.
Associated with the touchscreen are 8 rotary knobs for adjustment of parameters. See
Touchscreen on page 25 for detail.
