Starting Remote Control for Playback Operations
The process model for placing the QuVIS Encore under remote control is similar to that of a VTR. The
basic concept is that you open a communication channel between the Encore and the serial controller
by activating
REMOTE
control. As the system actually mimics most VTR’s functions, the QuVIS Encore
is not able to play unless a media file has first been “loaded” for playback. The same is true for a VTR, if
you have not loaded a tape, the VTR cannot play.
The process for starting “remote control” is the same for all serial protocols even though they may be
active on a different serial port.
Activate Remote Control
Remote control may be turned
ON
from the front panel GUI using two different methods. The first
method is to turn on remote control by pressing the
soft
Remote
button found on the
PLAY – Browser
menu page using the
Alt 2
soft
button view. The second method allows you to bypass the need to
directly turn on remote control by using the playstyle “
Load Remote Control”
(
PLAY – Video
menu
page) to automatically place the QuVIS Encore under remote control when playback is initiated. For
documentation purposes, method one is outlined below.
To place the QuVIS Encore under remote serial control for playback operation:
1.
Navigate to the
PLAY – Browser
menu page.
2.
Press the
soft
button (middle) labeled
Local
to activate REMOTE control (shown above).
Note:
While serial communication has been established between the QuVIS Encore and the serial controller, the
system is not yet ready to play until a media asset has been “loaded”.
Loading Media Assets for Remote Control
To complete the remote control setup process, you must “load” a media file for playback.
1.
Navigate to the
PLAY – Browser
menu page.
