Basic Menu Operations

Menu Organization

Operations on the MVS switcher system
make frequent use of menu operations.
This section describes the menus and their
interrelationships.
Overview
All detailed settings for basic operations
such as transitions, keys, DME, or wipes,
are made in menus. There are also menus
for carrying out general system control,
managing setting data, and initial setup.

About the Top Menu List

When the control panel is powered on, the
top menu list appears as shown below.
You can also display this by selecting VF1
'Top Menu List' after pressing the [HOME]
button at the upper left in the top menu
selection button area of the menu control
block.
To display the top menu
In the same way as for the top menu
selection buttons in the menu control block,
press each button to display the particular
top menu in the menu display.
Notes
• The arrangement of buttons in the top
menu list and the default arrangement of
the top menu selection buttons may be
different.
• Changing the top menu selection button
assignment in setup has no effect on the
top menu list.
To shut down the menus
Press the [Shutdown] button at the lower
right.
This operation is the same as the shut down
operation in the top menu window.
For details, see "Shutting down the menus"
(page 100).

Accessing Menus

You can use any of the following methods
to access a menu, and the initially displayed
menu page depends on the method used.
• Pressing a top menu selection button in
the menu control block.
This displays the page you last accessed
in the particular menu. After initially
powering on the system, however, the
page of VF1 - HF1 of the particular menu
is always selected.
• Pressing a button other than a top menu
button twice in rapid succession (see
page 83).
