available source signals with the rotary control until the desired source is
displayed. Press and hold the EXTx switch for 3 sec to load the signal.

PFL button is deactivated.
Confidence Feed Section
This system provides a means of sending an external signal to any or
all of the 8 MXM outputs. This is typically used during show setup or
airtime operations so talent can remain confident that their MXM feeds are
active and working. (A typical confidence feed signal might be master
control audio.)
A bank of 8 buttons allows user to individually route confidence audio
to a MXM output. Each feed can be unique. Additionally, all 8 outputs can
be put into confidence mode by means of a CONFIDENCE FEED ALL
switch. Also, the CONFIDENCE FEED ALL feed function can be
triggered from an external contact closure and armed for such action by
means of the REM TRIG button. To trigger the ALL function the user
defines an LIO Only input signal in the XPoint destination column with the
CONFIDENCE FEED ALL LED function. This input is cross connected
to an auto-generated mixer signal with the CONFIDENCE FEED LED
(CFLED1, for example) function attached (the signal name will be DxCF1
for confidence feeds 1 - 6 or DxCF2 for confidence feeds 7 - 12, where the
“x” represents a surface number in multi-surface systems). The remote
closure is wired to the defined logic I/O port. This allows remote control
of CONFIDENCE FEED ALL by master control switcher as the console
goes to and from air and breaks. As a result, reporters can hear the off-air
programming when dialing in and when station is in a break
All Confidence Feed programming is included in the EVENT storage.
To set and store a confidence feed signal, go to the MIX-MINUS
ASSIGN section of the MXM-D12 panel and hit the corresponding button
to establish a programming mode. Select the desired source in the XY
Controller section of the XYE-D12 panel by
rotating the SOURCE knob until the desired
signal is shown in the SOURCE display, at
which time the TAKE button will flash. Press-
ing that TAKE button will now program the
corresponding MXM to receive the selected
source. Repeat the procedure for each of the 8
MXM outputs in the MIX-MINUS ASSIGN
section on the MXM-D12
panel.
To remove the source for
an MXM, TAKE the source
named “NOSOURCE”.
