Operation
Modes of Operation
The panel's set of button functions varies slightly with the mode (or model).
Generally, to operate the panel, you choose a destination, (possibly) choose desired
breakaway levels, and choose a source. Choosing a source for a destination completes the
take. This paradigm has slight variations in the different modes.
There is no 'Take' button in any of the modes.
Limited X-Y Mode
In limited X-Y mode, takes generally occur from a single source to a single destination.
Destinations are selectable.
In hold mode, however, a single source can be taken to multiple destinations. Hold mode is
in effect when an 'Hold' button is high-tally.
Takes are all level unless your panel has level buttons. If your panel has level buttons, you
can select the level(s) on which the take is to occur. The sources of levels not selected remain
unchanged.
In hold mode, your level selection persists from one take the next. Otherwise, the next take
is all-level.
You can scroll through 4 pages to select a source or a destination. Further, you can use a
'Source Shift' button to toggle between two sets of sources in each page.
Pressing a source button completes the take.
Multi-Destination Mode
In this mode, source buttons are configured with destinations as well as sources. Thus, each
source button completes a route to its own assigned destination. If each button had a
different destination, it would be possible to route to as many as 36 destinations per page
(144 destinations in total). The typical configuration would have fewer destinations,
assigning one destination to one group of sources, another destination to another group of
sources, and so on.
Takes are all-level.
You can scroll through 4 pages to select a source or a destination. Further, you can use a
'Source Shift' button to toggle between two sets of sources in each page.
Pressing a source button completes the take.
Single-Destination Operation
Your panel might have been configured to have a single destination. This is possible in
either operating mode. If that is the case, then all source buttons perform takes to the same
destination.
