Automatic Label Propagation

How to Proceed: • Switch on the 'Use Device Labels' option in the SysAdmin/Device Labels
4-0 GC Operation
The philosophy on Vista consoles concerning labeling is not to name any
labels within channels, but to name patch sources in the General Patch, let-
ting the system propagate them to the connected channels. Specifically, we
are talking about two kinds of labels which will be propagated in this way:
Device labels (technical labels), and User labels (session labels, e.g. track
sheet). This also supports the workflow, whereby the operator first names his
sources and then patches them to any possible channel.
Advantages: If a source is connected to more than one channel, or if a patch
is changed, the labels are correctly updated on the actually patched channels.
