5. Operation
Operating Concepts
3 Ensure that your data router has been configured as “data forward.” In this mode, the router
expects the source (e.g., playback device) to control the destination (e.g., recording device).
4 Cue your playback device. (After the take, you must manually start the playback.)
Performing a Broadcast Take
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.
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.
Automatic Data Routing
A take involving a machine control level occurs automatically, without intervention, regardless of
who is using a device.
This option applies in all operating modes.
Manual Data Routing
A take involving a machine control level occurs on all levels except the machine control level. You
must route the machine control level as a breakaway.
When a take involving a machine control level occurs, the status display shows the name of the
machine control level and the destination display shows “In Use.” That is a signal that you need to
take the machine control level as a breakaway.
