Always be careful when switching Dual Head Enable on or off as this may
interrupt the signal to another destination!
When configuration is set to Dual Head, an option appears to select which head
appears in the Pluto Node list from the
Show Nodes
drop down menu. Select
one of the choices, detailed below,
and click
OK
.
Select
Head A Only
or
Head B Only
to independently control the required Head.
Note that this setting simply sets which head that THIS particular workstation is
controlling and is remembered even if the application is closed and restarted.
Another workstation can be used to control the other head simultaneously. The
setting is stored and recalled separately for each Pluto.
Select
Heads A & B
to allow independent control of both Heads from the same
GUI. In this case two nodes will appear in the main window node list (as shown
in the examples below).
Switching to or from dual-head, or switching between
Show Nodes
options,
causes the Pluto Node list to be rescanned as the nodes will change. This means
that the current node is unselected and the routing tab is disabled. Go to the
Pluto tab to reselect the appropriate node.
See Appendix A for examples of how a Pluto may be set up for use in
Dual Head Mode.
In Dual-head configuration, the Pluto Tab will indicate which Head of the Pluto is
currently being controlled by that workstation.
In this example, PLUTO 1 is in Standard mode. PLUTO 2
is in Dual Head mode, and this GUI is controlling Head A
only.
