VGA Status Display Operation
The VGA Status Display provides a supervisory, system−wide display of switcher, machine, or system status. The display
video is provided by the VGA output of a CM 4000. The display format is initially based on a set of factory default pages,
but can be customized as needed. (For more information about installation and configuration, see Appendix A.)
Basic controls for this display are located on the front panel of the CM 4000 (Figure 6−169).

For easier operation, the CM 4000 can be connected to one CP 3020 control panel, which in this application is configured
as device type “VC 3020” (see Figure 6−170). To use the VGA to best advantage, it should also be connected to a CP 3000
Switcher Control Panel and an MC 3000 Machine Control Panel. The RGB display monitor and the controls just described
should be located as close together as possible, preferably in the same equipment rack.
