Keygroup KeyGroups provide a way of assigning a label to multiple panels
simultaneously even within a networked matrix system. Once the
KeyGroups have been defined using EHX, all the keys within a KeyGroup
can be changed with a single assignment in Production Maestro Pro (Pro
mode only).
Label A label is an alphanumeric name of up to five characters that identifies a
source, destination, or control function accessed by an intercom panel.
Labels appear in the displays of the intercom panel.
Labels can identify panels, ports interfaced to other external equipment,
fixed groups, party lines, and special control functions.
MADI Multichannel Audio Digital Interface. The MADI or AES10 electronic
communications protocol defines the data format and electrical
characteristics of an interface carrying multiple channels of digital audio.
Multiplexing The process by which two or more signals are transmitted over a single
communications channel. Examples include time division and wavelength
division multiplexing.
Non-volatile Memory Data stored in the CPU’s firmware (ROM) that is not lost when the power
is turned off.
Palette The port, keyGroup and Monitor selection screen in Production Maestro
Pro.
Panel Any intelligent intercom device connected to the rear-panel analog ports
of the central matrix. This term does not refer to devices connected
through interface modules.
Partyline A wired shared communication system based on a single screened pair
of wires. See the Encore range. Matrix requires the CCI-22 to interface to
it.
Port Any of the input/output connections (RJ-45 connectors) on the back
panel of the central matrix. These connectors and the attached cables
connect the central matrix to remote intercom devices. The term port
emphasizes that the connection is a portal between the central matrix
and the remote intercom devices.
Program Any separate audio source that is fed into the intercom channels. In
television applications, for example, the program audio is the audio that is
broadcast on air.
Rack Unit (RU) Standardized unit of mounting space on a rack panel. Each rack unit is
1.75 inches (44.45 mm) of vertical mounting space. Therefore 1 RU is
1.75 inches (44.45 mm) of vertical mounting space, 2 RU is 3.5 inches
(88.9 mm), 3 RU is 5.25 inches (133.35mm), and so on.
Remote panel Any intelligent intercom device connected to the back-panel ports of the
matrix. This term does not refer to devices connected through interfaces.
Sidetone The sound of the panel operator’s voice, as heard in their own
earphone(s) as they speak.
Source In this guide, the term source refers to a device (such as an intercom
panel, interface, or beltpack) that sends audio into the matrix. The device
to which audio is sent is called a destination.
