To create a Learned Environment:
1 Set up MXProDV the way you want for this particular environment. This includes set-
ting any input effects you want, selecting the initial CURRENT and NEXT sources,
defining color, defining borders, and so forth.
2 Enter
LEARN
+<
NUMBER
> , where <
NUMBER
> can be any value from 1 to 8.
MXProDV saves all current settings under the number you enter. Note that the
INPUT
EFFECTS
LED (or, light) flashes to let you know MXProDV is in Learn Mode.
At this point, you can create a Learned Script to save with the current Learned Envi-
ronment. See the following section for further instructions.
You can also save the environment without a Learned Script. To do so, just press
LEARN
to disengage Learn Mode.

Learned Scripts exist only within Learned Environments. Although you can create a
Learned Script without first specifically creating a Learned Environment, MXProDV
automatically creates a Learned Environment using the current settings.
You can record one Learned Script for each Learned Environment. So, because you
can create 8 Learned Environments, you can also create 8 Learned Scripts.
The total number of actions (or, steps) in all of the combined Learned Scripts cannot
exceed 250. If you attempt to exceed this number, MXProDV simply stops recording
steps when it reaches capacity. You can replay all steps learned up to that point.
MXProDV does not retain Learned Scripts when you turn the unit off, but it does
retain the Learned Environment. Therefore, if you create a Learned Script within a
Learned Environment then turn off MXProDV, the Learned Environment is retained,
but the Learned Script is not.
MXProDV does not record the following steps while in Learn mode:
• Create or transition to compose screens
• Use Chromakey
• Use PIPs
• Use the Demo
You cannot modify a Learned Script after creating it. If you need to modify a Learned
Script, you must re-record it from the beginning.
If you’re familiar with the video-related term “Edit Decision List,” MXProDV is not an
EDL. MXProDV simply records certain steps, then replays them at your direction.
About Steps Most individual actions count as one step. For example, if you enter a two-digit tran-
sition number on the keyboard, that counts as two steps: each time you press
PLAY
or
use the
T-BAR
, that also counts as one step: and so forth.
Other buttons count as one step, including
SPEED
,
FREEZE
,
SETUP
,
INPUT EFFECTS
,
ARROW
keys, CURRENT and NEXT sources, and so forth.
Example…
The following Learned Script consists of 7 individual steps:
1 Press
NEXT
/
B
to select that device as the NEXT source (step one).
2 Press
SPEED
to increase the speed of the transition (step two).
