Setup: I/O Module; Setup: Options - PRG Mbox User Manual

Setup: I/O Module
The I/O Module section is used to verify the configuration of the connected I/O module
output sections. This is important when using Dual Independent mode, as Mbox must
know which output to dim with Camera 1 and which output to dim with Camera 2. When
using Dual Independent mode, if Camera 1 dims Output 2 and Camera 2 dims Output 1,
then the output sections are reversed.
The buttons function as follows:
+ Output 1 / Output 2 - The numbered buttons underneath Output 1 and Output 2 indicate that an I/O module
output section has been found. If "---" is displayed on one or both buttons, this indicates that Mbox cannot find
the I/O module circuit board in question.* These buttons also identify which output section is which. When the
Output 1 button is pressed, the top I/O module output section should flash its LEDs rapidly. Likewise, pressing
the Output 2 button should cause the bottom output section's LEDs to flash rapidly.
+
< > Button - If the Output 1 button flashes the bottom LEDs and the Output 2 button flashes the top LEDs, press
the "< >" button to swap the order. Verify the swap by pressing the numbered buttons again.
* If this occurs, check all USB connections between the Mac and the Dual I/O module.
Setup: Options
The Options section is used to enable/disable various software features.
+
No Diagnostics - Checking this box will disable the Mbox Designer automatic
error-reporting images such as the icons for locked content, broken movie, etc.
(Checking this box is recommended during show situations).
+
Pixel Map Enable - Checking this box enables the processing of pixel-mapping
patches and the resulting Art-Net output. (Unless you are using pixel-mapping, this
box should be left unchecked.)
+
ArtPOLL Disable - Checking this box turns off Mbox's ability to ask for and receive configuration information from
Art-Net devices on the network. This information is used solely for determining the destination for particular
universes of pixel-mapping Art-Net data. Refer to
+
AIFF Playback - Checking this box enables AIFF audio playback. (The Mbox Designer software must be restarted
for this change to take effect.) This checkbox has no effect on embedded audio playback. Refer to
Audio Tracks (in QuickTime Movies)"
