MX-4 DV USER GUIDE CHAPTER 11
104
TIP
Using ARROW keys to select a transition consumes one step for each key pressed. In most cases, to
fit as many transitions as possible into a Learned Script, use the numeric keypad to enter transition
numbers rather than using the
ARROW keys.
Select the CURRENT and NEXT sources before entering LEARN mode. LEARN mode interprets
pressing the CUT button as a transition.
USING LEARN MODE
Learn mode involves the following steps:
1 Activate all devices.
Turn on the MX-4 DV and all devices you intend to use, if necessary.
2 Press LEARN+<NUMBER> to engage Learn mode, where <NUMBER> can be any value from 1
to 5. The number designates the Learned Environment you want to use.
Note that the
INPUT EFFECTS LED (or, light) flashes while the MX-4 DV is in Learn mode.
3 Enter production steps.
Create the production in the same way you would even if you weren’t using Learn mode.
4 Press LEARN again to disengage Learn Mode.
Learn mode disengages automatically if you exceed 25 steps, the maximum allowed in a
Learned Script.
5 Play back the Learned Script.
aEnter
SHIFT+LEARN+<LEARNED SCRIPT #> on the keyboard, where <LEARNED SCRIPT
#> is the number of the Learned Environment and Learned Script you want to play back.
Remember, the Learned Script numbers can range from 1 through 5, inclusive with the
Learned Environment.
When this step finishes, MX-4 DV restores the selected environment and the unit is ready
to play back any learned scripts.
b Press
PLAY or use the T-BAR to run each transition in a Learned Script. When you use the
T-BAR, you can manually control any transition in the Learned Script.
The MX-4 DV begins replaying the Learned Script and displays and/or records the results to the
output device. (If the MX-4 DV Preview screen is not currently visible on the Preview monitor,
press DISPLAY until it appears.)
You can also use a GPI trigger device to play the steps in a Learned Script. A GPI trigger device
works exactly the same as pressing
PLAY. Refer to “Using a GPI Device” beginning on page 120
for more information.
CAUTION
You cannot edit a Learned Script. The only way to change a Learned Script is to re-enter it
from the beginning. If you create a Learned Script and begin entering commands, the MX-4
DV OVERWRITES the previous script.
