Editing the Relay Labels

Date printed: 28.0.0
The Signaling Setup Menu allows on-line assignment of available Signaling
relays to functions, such as Red Light activation or Fader Start of remote
systems. It also allows Save and Load of such assignment configurations for
later use.
Output Signaling is always related to the Patch Sources. The Vista console is
fully assignable, meaning that:
• A channel can be assigned to any channel strip;
• An audio Source (for example, a CD Player) can be patched into any chan-
nel and be accessed via any fader;
• A Snapshot can change the entire Patch settings.
For these reasons, it is impossible to assign an output Signaling device, such
as a Fader Start relay, to a specific fader. Instead, it has to be assigned to the
Patch source which, in turn, is assigned to a fader via the Patch. In this way,
the system logic is able to activate, for example, the correct relay when a fader
is opened. All output Signaling always follows the Sources, and the Signaling
Assignment itself also is Source-oriented.
The Vista system automatically knows how many Signaling relays are availa-
ble by accessing that information from the configuration and
available Sources are read from the Session Configuration. The Signaling
Configuration is all about assigning the right relay to the right source, as we
will see next.
First, the System Administrator needs to determine how the relays will be
connected to peripheral equipment (machine-transport controls, lamps, etc.).
Then, the fixed relay labels can be edited to reflect their functions. For this
action, select the Edit User Labels button from the Signaling Output or Red
Light menu pages:
