Cross-Point Button Display; Cross-Point Hold - Sony MLS-X1 User Manual

When selecting the bus/signal of button numbers 36 to 70
in the 1st row and 3rd row, press and hold the [SHIFT]
button and press the corresponding number button.
[SHIFT] button
The [SHIFT] button has two operation modes.
Hold mode: Mode where the shifted state is selected
while the button is pressed
Lock mode: Mode where every time the button is pressed,
it toggles between the shifted state and unshifted state
In cross-point button rows (3rd row/4th row), you can
also disable the shift button function.
For details about setting delegation button rows, see
"Setting the operation mode of the shift button"
(page 409).
For details about setting cross-point button rows, see
"Setting the [SHIFT] button operation mode"
(page 383).
Notes
• When second delegation is disabled, the 1st row and 3rd
row shift buttons are set to hold mode (fixed). You can
select the button number in the shifted state while
pressing the shift button.
The 2nd row and 4th row are always in the shifted state,
hence the shift buttons cannot be operated.
• The rightmost button operates as a cross-point button
when the [SHIFT] button use is disabled in the cross-
point button row.
In a 36-button row, it becomes button number 36.

Cross-Point Button Display

Names of signals
You can attach a name (logical V/K pair name or source
name) to the signal assigned to a cross-point button, with
a maximum of 16 characters.
The specified signal name appears on the display of the
cross-point control block/AUX bus control block (AUX
bus operation mode). When a signal in the shifted state of
a cross-point button is selected, the name of the shifted-
state signal is displayed.
Six types of display mode can be set according to the
information to display. The display mode can be switched
using the following buttons.
• ICP-X7000: Select display mode 1 to 6 using the
display mode buttons assigned to the cross-point pad.
• ICP-X1000 series: The display mode switches each
time the [DISP MODE] button assigned to the function
button section is pressed.
For details about setting the signal name display, see
"Setting a Logical V/K Pair" (page 381).

In a single cross-point button row, only the last pressed
button is active, and is lit amber or red.

Cross-point indicators
When lit, these indicate the logical V/K pair color linked
to the video signal logical V/K pair assigned to buttons on
the 3rd row of the cross-point control block/AUX bus
control block (AUX bus operation mode).
The color of the cross-point indicators does not change
even if a 3rd row button is lit red or amber.

Cross-Point Hold

Setting cross-point hold enables you to recall an effect
timeline or snapshot while keeping the current cross-point
selection unchanged.
You can set cross-point hold for each cross-point button
row.
To set cross-point hold, press the [XPT HOLD] button,
turning it on, for the 1st row to 4th row assigned to the
cross-point pad/function button section.
In a cross-point control block on the ICP-X7000, you can
also set cross-point hold for each bus using the [XPTHLD
XXX] button (where "XXX" is the bus name) assigned to
the cross-point pad.
Note
When the switcher bank operation mode is set to multi
program 2 mode, the following cross-point hold setting
buttons function as buttons for the side (main or sub)
selected by the [MAIN] button/[SUB] button. When both
the [MAIN] button and [SUB] button are selected,
settings are applied on both main and sub.
• [XPT HOLD] button: 1st row to 4th row cross-point
hold (only when the background A bus, background B
bus, or utility 2 bus is assigned to a button row)
