Pushbutton Inserts
Once your inputs and alpha signals are connected, install the pushbutton designation inserts to identify
the sources for your inputs. Please note:
• All pushbutton inserts are printed on full-sized sheets of transparent plastic. For best
results when cutting out the button inserts, use a sharp
X-ACTO ® knife and a
steel-edged ruler.
• All inserts are easily installed under the lens caps — for both control panel and Aux
panel pushbuttons.
Note that there are four typical ways of labeling Synergy Q/MD pushbuttons:
• Use our standard inserts.
• Ask us to make custom inserts.
• Make your own inserts using transparency material.
• Use a Brother ® labeler to create your own labels.
Standard films with common input designations are provided to all customers. If a designation that
you require has
not been included on a certain film, and it is a type likely to be needed by other
switcher users, Ross Video would be pleased to consider adding it to the standard film.
Control Panel Pushbutton Inserts
Use the following procedure to install all control panel pushbutton inserts. Use the diagram below for
reference.
1. Cut out the designation film inserts for the primary input pushbuttons.
2. Remove the lens assembly from the primary input switch by pulling straight upward on
the lens cap.
Operating
Tip
If you have trouble removing a control panel button, use a pair of
wide-tipped pliers (1/2 inch) with masking tape wrapped around the
ends. For best results, wiggle the button side to side while extracting.
Note
Ross Video will make custom inserts for your facility at a very
reasonable price. Please call us for details.
