Chapter 3: Front Panel Operation - AJA Ki Pro Installation And Operation Manual

Chapter 3: Front Panel Operation

There are three ways to control Ki Pro: the front panel, remotely from a web browser
connected via ethernet, or a wireless browser (iPhone etc.) via 802.11. This chapter
discusses controlling and using Ki Pro from its front panel. (Remote control via
browser is discussed later in Chapter 4.)
In Chapter two we discussed the panel controls overall, so ensure you've read and
understand that material first. Here in this Chapter we introduce each of the front
panel's modes and menus—plus talk about Clips and Reels, with procedures for basic
use.
First we introduce the two basic front panel modes, TRANSPORT and MENU, followed
by how the SELECT and ADJUST buttons operate in each of these two panel modes.
Select Adjust
The TRANSPORT mode is the default mode—it controls basic PLAY, STOP, FF, REV, etc.
functions. In the TRANSPORT mode, the Select buttons (up or down) cycle through
the clips in the currently selected storage slot (like previous/next), and the Adjust
buttons allow single-stepping, frame forward or backward. The display for the
TRANSPORT mode is shown below:
Clip SC12BTK1
D1 47%
Reel 212 01:02:22:14
TRANSPORT Mode
For the MENU mode, depressing one of the 3 MENU buttons (STATUS, CONFIG, or
MEDIA) will enter the corresponding menu.
In the STATUS menu, the Select buttons will cycle through the various STATUS
screens. The Adjust buttons have no effect on the STATUS menu. The display for the
STATUS menu is shown below:
