Category 4: Action Logic
This fourth class of logic function in the WheatNet‑IP system includes system events
such as Salvos and Momentary Connections. Action logic is intended to force crosspoint
connection changes. Perhaps you have an Air studio that undergoes a major change in signal
connections when the morning show finishes. Instead of having the talent go through and
change all the source and destination connections individually at each shift change, you
could create a Salvo that makes all of the required changes at once. Furthermore, you can
use a logic connection to a button to fire the Salvo itself, so all that your operator needs
to know is to push the button at shift change. What could be easier?
For an example, let’s assume you have created a Salvo to change out your studio
configuration from Morning Drive to your 10 o’clock show, and you’ve cleverly called
it “10AM.” You are planning to use a switch panel in your studio to fire the Salvo, and
you’re going to wire the “10AM” switch on the switch panel to logic LIO 2 port #2 on
BLADE #1.
Here’s how to do it: First wire up the normally open terminals of the switch to pins #1
and #2 on the second RJ‑45 logic port of BLADE #1. In the WheatNet‑IP Navigator GUI,
click on the icon for BLADE #1 in the System Pane, and then click on the LIO Info tab. On
LIO 2 #2 (the 7th line) double click on the Fire Salvo box to open the window and click
on the “Fire Salvo” check box. In the drop down window, scroll and select the “10AM”
Salvo and click on the OK button.
To test this out, switch to the crosspoint grid view of the GUI and watch the crosspoints
switch on the grid as you press the switch (be sure to do this at a safe time as you will
actually be switching audio and can mess up a show On‑Air).
You can also use action logic to make a crosspoint change (hint: use a Salvo of one
signal) that switches the source for a destination, or to make a temporary crosspoint change
that substitutes a source to a destination for as long as the button is held down. The latter
is particularly useful in Talkback/Intercom types of situations.
