Auto Mode Key Function: Holding the
AUTO / AUTO MODE
key down temporarily reverses the state
of the Master Panel Touch Record key on a local basis. For example, if
Touch Record is activated on the Au Panel, holding down the
AUTO / AUTO MODE
key will deactivate Touch Record on that channel as
long as the key held down. If Touch Record is not active, holding the
AUTO / AUTO MODE
key will activate it for that channel.
Using the Auto Mode Key: The
AUTO / AUTO MODE
key may be used as follows:
• Global Touch Record Active:
- Holding the
AUTO / AUTO MODE
key will deactivate Touch Record
for that channel. This will allow enabled controls to be auditioned
on a local basis without being punched-in.
- Touching an enabled control will punch it in and holding it will
keep it in RECORD. Pressing and holding the
AUTO / AUTO MODE
key before the control is released will deactivate Touch Record.
When it is released, the control will not punch-out and will stay in
RECORD in a Held state.
• Global Touch Record Inactive:
- Holding the
AUTO / AUTO MODE
key will activate Touch Record for
that channel. This will allow enabled controls to be punched-in on a
local basis.
- Holding the
AUTO / AUTO MODE
key and releasing a control that is
in RECORD will punch that control out. In this case, the control
may be touched at any time, but the
AUTO / AUTO MODE
key must
be pressed at the time of release for a punch-out to occur.
