Personality
Personality settings allow you to configure how
you interact with the control panel and switcher,
as well as how the buttons on the control panel
appear. All of these settings are stored in the
Personality register.
Personality Settings
There are a number of settings for how the
switcher will react to different situations, or
how switcher elements appear to the operator.
All these settings are grouped together into the
Switcher Personality. These settings include
double-press rates and sleep time, among others.

Description
Personality
have the switcher go into a sleep mode
after a user-defined amount of time (Sleep
Minutes) without user interaction.
Touching any button, knob, or fader will
wake the switcher. The switcher does not
act on the button, knob, or fader control
that wakes it from sleep mode. During sleep
mode, video related hardware is not
affected and video signals still pass through
the switcher. This setting is unique to the
control panel.
•
Power Save — all buttons and displays
are turned off and as much power is
conserved as possible.
•
Sleep — displays are turned off and
buttons light in raindrop pattern.
Sleep Mode
The amount of time that the switcher waits
without user input before going into sleep
mode. Setting the value to
0
(Off) prevents
the switcher from entering sleep mode. This
setting is unique to the control panel.
Sleep
Minutes
Have the Shift button either be latching
(toggle) or momentary (off). When in toggle
mode, you can press the shift button and
then select a source on the shifted bus
without having to hold down the shift
button. This only affects the bus the shift
button is on. This setting is unique to the
control panel.
•
Off — the Shift button only stays on as
long as you are holding it down.
•
Toggle — when you press the Shift
button it stays on until you press a
source button on that bus.
Toggle Shift
Allows you to set how the BANK button
behaves when pressed and released. This
setting is unique to the control panel.
•
Normal — the keypad is used to enter
the bank number directly, followed by
the memory (For example, to access
memory 3 on bank 2, press BANK > 2 >
3.)
•
Legacy — the next bank is selected
every time the button is pressed, cycling
through all banks (For example, to
access bank 5, press BANK repeatedly
until bank 5 is selected.)
Memory
Bank
A memory recall can be reversed by
pressing the memory number a second
time after a memory is recalled. This is the
same as pressing the UNDO button, if
present on your control panel. This setting
is unique to the control panel.
•
Off — pressing the memory number
again does not undo the recall.
•
On — pressing the memory number
again undoes the last memory recall.
