Aux Bus – Remote Panels
When Remote Panel Setup is pressed, the following actions occur:
• All remote panels (both assignable and dedicated) are placed in “programming”
mode (as indicated on the menu itself).
• The on-air LED on all panels flashes to alert you that programming mode is now in
effect.
• The 12 buttons in the control panel’s Aux Bus Assign Group become inactive.
With the programming mode in effect, selected crosspoints on each panel now represent
the 12 Aux Bus outputs.
• On Synergy 2 panels, the 12 Aux Assign buttons represent the 12 Aux Bus outputs,
respectively.
• On Synergy 3 and Synergy 4 panels, the first 12 crosspoints on each Aux panel
represent the 12 Aux Bus outputs, respectively.
• On assignable panels, each button programs the rights for its associated Aux Bus
— as controlled from the current assignable panel. On dedicated panels, each
button represents its associated Aux Bus output, but only one of the 12 buttons can
be selected.
3. Assign the rights for an assignable panel for each assignable panel connected to the
frame as follows:
• Go to the assignable panel itself.
• Ensure that the panel is in “programming” mode (with the on-air LED flashing).
• For reference only , note the state of the SHIFT button — but do not change its state.
If the button is lit, shifted crosspoints are allowed on the panel. If the button is off,
shifted crosspoints cannot be selected. On
newer models of assignable panels, this
mode is set automatically to match that of the main Control Panel. For details on
older model panels, contact Ross Video Technical Support.
• Press the crosspoint ( 1 - 12 ) that corresponds to the Aux Bus that you want to
program, and select the desired option. Each button can be toggled between
Regular Mode and Follow Mode , and each press cycles to the next option:
~ Regular Mode — the remote Aux panel has full access. The bus can be
selected and sources can be changed from both the remote Aux panel and the
local control panel. The button is lit steadily.
~ Follow Mode — the associated Aux Bus is in “view only” mode. You can
select the bus and follow what crosspoints are being selected (remotely, by
Note Special modes such as the PGM/Key SHIFT mode are not available
on remote panels.
