Operating Concepts
Automatic Data Routing
A take involving a machine control level occurs automatically, without intervention, regardless of
who is using a device.
This option applies in all operating modes.
Manual Data Routing
A take involving a machine control level occurs on all levels except the machine control level. You
must route the machine control level as a breakaway.
When a take involving a machine control level occurs, the status display shows the name of the
machine control level and the destination display shows “In Use.” That is a signal that you need to
take the machine control level as a breakaway.
This option applies only in single-destination mode with breakaway.
Semi-Automatic Data Routing
A take involving a source or a destination having a machine control level might not occur immedi-
ately if the source or destination device is in use.
This option applies in all operating modes.
If neither device is “in use” the take occurs immediately. Otherwise, you need to press the source
button again to complete the take.
If the source device is in use, the ‘Status’ display shows “Src Used” and the destination display
shows “Retry?”
If the source device is in use, the ‘Status’ display shows “DestUsed” and the destination display
shows “Retry?”
If the source device is in use, the ‘Status’ display shows “BothUsed” and the destination display
shows “Retry?”
If you do not press the (same) source button again, the take is canceled. (It will time out.)
