Solid State Logic SL 9000 J Series Operator's Manual page 306

To avoid any confusion as to what takes place when objects are switched from
Protected Manual to Automated during a mix, here are a set of rules:
• Objects switching from Protected Manual to Automated, where no previous mix
data exists for those objects:
(a) If the objects were on before AUTO was enabled, when you switch from
Protected Manual to Automated they will write their current state from zero to
23:59:59:24(:29).
(b) If the objects were off before AUTO was enabled, and you switch them on at
say 1 minute into the mix, then switch from Protected Manual to Automated
before 1 minute, the objects will remain off and then turn on at 1 minute.
Note that, if you hit Discard during the first pass, and objects are currently in
write, the LED will go out but the objects state at that point will be automatically
written to 23:59:59:24(:29).
• Objects switching from Protected Manual to Automated, where previous mix data
does exist for those objects:
(a) If the objects were on before AUTO was enabled, when you switch from
Protected Manual to Automated they will write their current state from zero to
23:59:59:24(:29).
(b) If the switches were off during the first few passes, when you turn them on and
decide to switch between Protected Manual and Automated, they will turn off –
effectively switching to Replay.
