System Control
The twelve menu buttons, the display window, the four knobs and the four soft buttons under
the knobs together are called the system control. The 4 line display is used to identify the
operation of the soft buttons and knobs. The two system control blocks provide separate M/E 1
and M/E 2 controls.
The system control is context sensitive and allows you to adjust parameters for the current
operation. For example if you enable KEY 1 in your next transition, the system control allows you
to adjust the parameters of KEY 1. The system control is also used for configuring other parts of
the switcher.
Power Status and System Control
Menu Buttons
The matrix of menu buttons are organized into a multi level tree structure of pages that are very
easy to navigate. To assist in rapid navigation all menu pages have a HOME button at the
bottom right and most operations only require navigating down one level.
Joystick and M/E Pattern and Key Buttons
You can use the joystick to quickly control keys and transitions by selecting the button
corresponding to the M/E you are using and the parameter you wish to adjust.
M/E PATT
By selecting the M/E 1 PATT or M/E 2 PATT button, you can quickly get joystick control
over size and the horizontal and vertical aspects of your selected transition.
M/E KEY
You can quickly move and resize upstream keys by selecting this button in the desired
M/E when the KEY button is selected in the System Control Block of buttons.
