Operating Concepts
Performing a Broadcast Take
—
Limited X-Y Mode
Follow these steps:
1 Select a destination and route a source to it. The source becomes the master because the router
is in data forward mode. This destination is the slave and communicates bidirectionally with the
master on the machine control level.
2 Press ‘Broadcast’ (so that it is high-tally).
3 Choose a destination and route the
same source
to it. This destination only receives control
commands; it will not return status.
4 Repeat step 3 to connect additional slave destinations.
5 To remove one slave from the group, turn off ‘Broadcast’ and route a source to it that is not the
master (e.g., the free source). This new device must have a machine control connection.
6 To clear the entire broadcast route, turn off ‘Broadcast’ and select the master device as the des-
tination in a new route. (We recommend that you use the free source as the new source). The
entire broadcast route is cleared, and data connections are removed from all slaves.

Multi-Destination Mode
Follow these steps:
1 Press a source. That source becomes the master because the router is in data forward mode.
This destination (configured on the source button) is the slave and communicates bidirection-
ally with the master on the machine control level.
2 Press ‘Broadcast’ (so that it is high-tally).
3 Press another source button that has the
same source
but a different destination. This destination
only receives control commands; it will not return status.
4 Repeat step 3 to connect additional slave destinations.
5 To remove one slave from the group, turn off ‘Broadcast’ and route a source to it that is not the
master (e.g., the free source). This new device must have a machine control connection.
6 To clear the entire broadcast route, turn off ‘Broadcast’ and select the master device as the des-
tination in a new route. (We recommend that you use the free source as the new source). The
entire broadcast route is cleared, and data connections are removed from all slaves.
Important Points
• After you perform the complete take, you must start the playback of the source device manu-
ally.
• The panel provides no way to determine which devices belong to the “broadcast group.” You
must keep track of this yourself.
• If another operator takes either your master device or the first slave device, the entire broadcast
group collapses. Any other slave can be removed from the group, however, without collapsing
the entire group. Only the primary pair is critical to the group’s integrity.
Data Routing
There are 3 data routing options that affect sources and destinations that have a machine control
level (i.e., a data level). These options govern what happens when a source or destination device is
to be used.
