Settings Relating to
System Configuration

Selecting the Operation Mode

You can set the switcher system operation mode to the
following three modes.
Single Proc mode: A single control panel controls a single
switcher (including DMEs).
Dual Simul mode: A single control panel controls two
switchers (including DMEs) simultaneously.
This allows operation to continue on one switcher if
the other switcher cannot communicate due to device
failure or other cause.
Region Simul mode: A single control panel controls a
single switcher (including DMEs) and regions of
another switcher (including DMEs) simultaneously.
The target regions to control are set in the Region
Simul Config menu (7312.3).
Notes
• To enable region simultaneous control using Region
Simul mode, press the button assigned with the "Region
Simul Enable" utility command.
When region simultaneous control is disabled, the
operation is the same as Single Proc mode.
• Before region simultaneous control is enabled, the
region selection status of both switchers must be the
same. Execute a snapshot, for example, to set the same
status.

If there are multiple control panels and switchers, the
control panel on which [Tally Master] is enabled
performs tally control for the whole system.

• If the master panel is changed, be sure to copy and
save the setup tally (TLY) and router (RTR) data in
the File menu, and make the same settings on
another panel.
• If the master panel tally data is loaded into a panel
with a different unit ID, then [Tally Master] is
disabled.
• [Tally Master] cannot be enabled on the 4th control
panel (PNL4).
