You can see all the Ultimatte units being controlled by your smart remote by glancing at the
status bar on the touchscreen. Up to 8 units can be controlled, and each unit icon will illuminate
green when identified on your network. When a unit is selected for control, the icon will
illuminate blue.

Ultimatte Main Unit Indicators
The 8 small box indicators on the left side show you which main units are connected on the
network, and which unit is currently being controlled. If tally is connected via the GPIO input,
the boxes will illuminate red when a unit is on air.
Reference Source - Foreground In
This indicator will illuminate red when a reference source is absent, and green when a reference
source is present. The reference signal can be connected via the foreground source connected
to the foreground input, or via the reference input.
Backing Color
The default backing color is green and will be reflected by this indicator. When the backing
color is changed, the indicator will also change to show the backing color being used.
Active File
When you have loaded a preset file using the information and file control section, the preset
name will be displayed in the active file area. If no preset is loaded, the active file displays the
Ultimatte default preset.
In addition, the status bar also notifies you with messages. For example, if a specific control is
currently locked and you need to enable another setting to access it, the status bar will
notify you.
