col, also export of output interface labels is supported. It is therefore possible
to connect two Vistas together and get the labels automatically from one Vista
transferred to the second.
Note: The Pro-Bel P-08 interface also allows patch control and not only transfer of
labels.
4.7.17.1.4 Support of External Monitoring Source Selector Panels
As an alternative to controlling patch points of the console by using 3
rd
-party
controllers (Pro-Bel protocol), Studer offers a ‘mini’ Pro-Bel controller
module. The module may be mounted within the Vista console or anywhere
externally. It hosts 32 freely programmable keys to set any number of patch
points within the console. Each key may be defined to set a certain patch point
(or a set of patch points.) The keys on the hardware panel are illuminated,
if all of the defined patch points are currently set. As soon as one of them is
cleared or changed, the key gets dark. This intelligence allows free grouping
of the 32 keys to e.g. 16 groups of two sources each, or to one single group
of 32 sources. Any combination in between is possible. It is also possible to
use 16 keys as one group while using the remaining keys as two groups of
eight, for example.
If a set of keys are setting patch points to the same destination they are
automatically recognized as a group and therefore their illumination will
automatically indicate the correct patch state. Rule: A key is illuminated as
long as all defined patch points are set. If at least one of them is changed (e.g.
by pressing another source selector or by the console’s touch pad) the key
becomes dark.
Note: Switching patch points is not only possible to outputs of the console, but
everywhere within the patch (e.g. input patches to input channels or inserts).
Therefore the Studer panel may also be used to switch any number of input
patches of the console to different inputs.
Patch Point Isolation These patch points cannot be isolated against changes by snapshot recalls,
unless the inputs of the channels are isolated. The general function of isolating
patch points against snapshot recalls may be applied to output patches only.
Patch Mapping Setup The setup on the console side happens in the same way as when setting up
normal Pro-Bel control. The panel itself needs an address set. This address
will guarantee that multiple panels may work at the same time. Multiple
panels may be connected to one serial port of the console. Please refer to the
service manual for more details.
