17.8 TAKE
This parameter determines the TAKE number, from 1 to 999, that follows the CLIP

There are rules that Ki Pro observes in relation to Clips and Takes:
1. Ki Pro will not overwrite an existing clip when using standard clip naming.
2. The Take number will auto-increment past existing numbers for the "prefix" as
defined by the Reel Name, Clip Name, Clip Number, Clip Append, Alpha
Append, and Take settings.
3. If the number is at "999" , Ki Pro will not auto-increment; instead it will register
a "Name In Use" alarm. This prompts you to select a new Clip Name, Clip
Number, Clip Append, Alpha Append, and/or Take settings so that a new
unique "prefix" is created. This action ensures files are unique and
understandable, and that clips are never overwritten.
Beginning with Ki Pro 2.0 firmware, users can elect to give their clips names other
than the standard criteria provided by AJA. IMPORTANT: Certain characters may not
be allowed or supported if entered for a clip name. Examples include: punctuation
marks (other than internal spaces or periods), special characters (like @), and non-
ASCII UTF-8 characters are rejected outright. Note: non-UTF-8 characters appear in
some languages, like Chinese and Japanese, and are not supported.
Custom clip names can be created via the front panel UI menu parameters (19.1, 19.2,
19.3, and 19.4) through the use of the select and adjust up/down arrows. Users may
find that the more efficient method to perform custom clip naming is via the web UI
entry fields.
No text is appended to the CLIP NAME and
CLIP NUMBER
The text value entered in ALPHA APPEND is appended
to the CLIP NAME and CLIP NUMBER
Press ADJUST button up or down to change the
ALPHA APPEND value from A to Z. Alphabetic
values increment with A and Z wrapping around.
Ki Pro automatically generates a TAKE number.
Press ADJUST button up or down to change the
TAKE value from 1 to 999, if a value other than the
automatically generated value is desired.
