Using the shift function
The 29 cross-point buttons in each row are numbered 0 to 28. Normally the
rightmost button is the shift button; the buttons to which signals are assigned
are then numbered 0 to 27 in the unshifted state, and 30 to 57 in the shifted
state.
To select the signal corresponding to the unshifted state, press the required
button alone; to select the signal corresponding to the shifted state, hold
down the shift button, then press the required button. Note that for the
auxiliary bus bank there is the special-purpose SHIFT button, and even when
not using the 29th button as a shift button, holding down the SHIFT button
and pressing a cross-point button selects one of the second set of signals.
It is also possible, using a setup menu operation, to switch the shift button to
be the leftmost button instead of the rightmost. In this case the assignable
signals are numbered 1 to 28 and 31 to 58. You can also use a setup menu
operation so that the shift button is locked when pressed.
All shift function settings are carried out in a setup menu (see page 13-58).
Source name indications
Using a setup menu operation, you can assign an identifier of up to eight
characters to each signal, for display on the control panel.
For details of the procedure for assigning signal names, see page 13-54.
The source name display on the control panel shows the specified identifier
of up to four characters. When the identifier exceeds four characters, the
display shows the first two and the last two characters of the identifier.
When using the shift function, hold down the SHIFT button beside the source
name displays to show the identifiers assigned to the shifted buttons.
The identifiers assigned to the shifted buttons also appear in the source name
display while the shift button in the cross-point button row is held down.
If you are using the switcher and a DVS-B series routing switcher connected
by a BKDS-7700, the signal names selected on the routing switcher can be
displayed.
Reentry buttons
To use the output of one M/E bank as a background input to another M/E
bank, press the corresponding button (M/E-1 or M/E-2) at the right of the
bank.
For example, to use the output of the M/E-1 bank as background B on the
M/E-2 bank, press the M/E-1 button in the B row of cross-point buttons in
the M/E-2 bank.
