4. Configuration
Selection Buttons
MD Mode
When the panel is in MD mode, a set of selection buttons presents a set of MD devices. The selec-
tion buttons correspond to MD destinations.
If a selection button is blank, an MD device was not assigned to it. If a selection button is high-
tally, the MD device is selected. If a selection button is low-tally, the MD device is not selected.
(Configurers perform MD destination population by (1) scrolling through the MD destination list
by double-clicking ‘Page Up’ or ‘Page Down’ buttons and (2) configuring the selection buttons that
appear as a result of scrolling. The button page must, of course, have ‘Page Up’ and ‘Page Down’
buttons and the configurer must create them.
It is usually the case that there are more destinations than selection buttons. The operator can scroll
through the destinations using ‘Page Up’ and ‘Page Down’ buttons. Including those buttons on the
button page that has the selection is strongly recommended.
S
The up/down buttons next to the display scroll the display only.
S
Note that the number of MD destinations is configured in multiples 8, from 8 to 512.
Selection
XY Mode — Normal
When the operator selects a destination, all selection buttons that have levels defined for the desti-
nation turn on (high-tally). The operator may select or deselect any levels as required, by pressing
selection buttons and perhaps scrolling the display.
S
Note that if the operator selects a level when all levels are on, all the other levels become unse-
lected (low-tally).
Selecting a new destination again turns on all selection buttons that have levels defined.
S
Source/Destination buttons are “all level”— not subject to level selection.
XY Mode — Hold Mode
In hold mode, when the operator selects a destination, previously deselected levels (defined for the
destination) remain selected for additional takes and previously unselected levels remain dese-
lected. (Individual levels turn on or off as the user selects them.)
MD Mode — Normal
When the user selects an MD device, all selection buttons are mutually exclusive: when the opera-
tor presses one button, any others that were selected turn off. To perform MD takes, the operator
alternately selects an MD device and then a source until all intended devices have been preset. Then
the operator presses ‘Take’.
(In normal mode, any selected MD devices become unselected after the take.)
MD Mode — Hold Mode
In hold mode, selection buttons are not mutually exclusive. To perform MD takes, the operator
selects one or more MD devices. All of them turn on (high-tally). The operator then selects a source
(which becomes preset for all the selected devices).
The operator can preset another source to another set of destinations by deselecting selected desti-
nations, selecting other destinations, and selecting another source.
