Operation of the Monitor Wall

Layout A layout refers to a visual grouping of monitors on the monitor wall. Layouts are specific
to a room, and created by using the XEdit application. Full screen layouts, also defined in
XEdit, are specific to a full screen zone within a particular room. See “Loading Layouts” on
page 38, and “Displaying a Source in Full Screen Mode” on page 41.
Dashboard The dashboard is a window that contains the system name, IP address and software build
version. It also displays error messages. The dashboard is displayed at the bottom right of
each display, on the monitor wall:
See “Displaying the Dashboard” on page 36, and “Hiding the Dashboard” on page 37.
Monitor A monitor (also called a widget ) is a graphical element that is part of a layout. XEdit
supports several types of primary elements (clocks, timers, video monitors, audio
monitors, UMDs, time code monitors, alarm monitors, etc.), that can be grouped into
composite monitors.
Logical source A logical source (called a channel, in earlier versions of the documentation) refers to a
group of physical audio, video, or metadata sources, and text attributes. A logical source
can be used as a whole, and assigned to a virtual monitor. See “Assigning Sources to
Monitors” on page 48.
Video monitor A video monitor is a layout element used to define an area for displaying a video signal.
Within a video monitor, the video window is the active area where the video signal is
displayed.
Composite monitor A composite monitor (also referred to as a composite , a monitor or a tile ) is a group of
primary elements that can be seen as a single object within a layout. Composite monitors
typically include a video window, one or more audio level meters, and a UMD with two
tallies.
Safe area The safe area is a configurable region inside a video window. The safe area markers delimit
this region (e.g. a 4:3 region inside a 16:9 window). See “Toggling Safe Area Markers” on
page 43.
Audio monitor An audio monitor (also called audio level meter or ALM ) is a layout element that provides a
visual representation of sound. See “Triggering Audio Monitoring” on page 58.
UMD An under monitor display ( UMD ) has a text label that can be static or updated by a
peripheral device. It can also have left and right tally indicators . The UMD usually indicates
the name of the video source seen in a video monitor. See “Editing UMD Text” on page 47,
and “Selecting an Input Method” on page 47.
