Following are descriptions of each button’s function on the Source Selection Bus.
Source Buttons — press to assign the source to the blinking “mixer” button in the Layer
Control Section
.
• When the source button is lit and blinking:
~ The source is on Preview.
~ The associated layer is active for modification.
~ The associated layer’s raster box is blinking on Preview.
• When lit solid, the source is on Preview — but its associated layer is not active for
modification.
• Multiple source buttons can be lit simultaneously, but only one source button can
be blinking — with its associated layer active for modification and the associated
raster box blinking on Preview.
• When the Red LED above a source button is lit solid, the source is on Program.
• When the Red LED above a source button is blinking:
~ The associated mixer is set to Mix Mode.
~ In the mixer, the blinking Red LED indicates the layer that is on Program.
~ In the associated mixer, the layer opposite to the blinking Red LED is
enabled for modification, with the associated raster box blinking.
S The Red LED above source 1 is blinking, and the Red LED above layer 1A is
blinking. This indicates that mixer 1 is set to
Mix Mode, with source 1 on
Program in layer
1A and layer 1B active for modification.
• Multiple Red LEDs can be lit simultaneously, but only one Red LED can be
blinking — indicating a “Mix Mode” association.
• Source buttons cannot be selected if they have not been assigned during the
source setup procedure. The button(s) will not light.
Source buttons are also used in the following modes:
• Source buttons can be used to route inputs to Aux destinations. In Chapter 7,
see the “
Routing Sources to Aux Destinations” section on page 316 for details.
• In “live switch” mode, source buttons can be used to switch the input to a PIP
directly on Program. In Chapter 7, refer to the “
Working with Live Modes”
section on page 340 for complete instructions on all destination modes.
Shift — the Shift button is a toggle: press once to light, press again to turn off. When lit,
press the desired source button to access the
second row of numbered sources (e.g., 13 -
24 on the Controller SC).
In Chapter 7, refer to the “
Switching Sources” section on page 319 for additional details.
