Visibilities Tab
Visibilities
– Use the Visibility
option setting to limit the
sources the user sees when
dialing up a source on the
L-8. This feature is helpful,
especially in large systems
with lots of signals. NOTE: If
you have not done the system
scan as described on page 2-4
you will not see all the sources
that are available to the L-8.
Scroll up and down the
Channel list, check or un-
check signals as desired for
that channel, and click the
Ap‑
ply
button to save the visibil-
ity options. If you have made
changes and then decided you
don’t want to put the changes
into effect, click
Cancel
.
This will cancel any changes
you made since entering
the screen or since clicking
Apply
, whichever happened
most recently.
Check the
Global Alpha Sort
box to sort the list of channels in alphanumeric order
when selecting sources on the L-8.
Check
Allow No Source
if you want NoSource to be allowed for that channel. If
NoSource is not allowed then the channel must always have a source selected.
Right-clicking in the Channel area of the Visibilities tab pops up a menu with some
useful shortcuts on it:
•
Copy
– Choose this item to copy the visibility settings of the currently selected
channel.
•
Paste
– Choose this item to paste visibility settings that have been copied from
one channel to the currently selected channel.
•
Paste All
– Choose this item to paste visibilities that have been copied from one
channel to all channels.
•
All
– Choose this item to select all signals in the system to be visible to the cur-
rently selected channel. This also puts a check in the
Allow No Source
check box.
•
None
– Choose this item to deselect all signals for the currently selected channel.
This also removes the check, if present, in the
Allow No Source
check box.
