Option Panels

The first Configuration Options tab selects the KONA Options panel for setting Board
Activation mode and Capture format options.

Activation Mode

A KONA plugin can be set for Automatic or Manual activation using the Activation Mode pull-
down menu. Automatic is the default setting and is recommended for normal operation. In
this mode, you merely click between the open plugins to make one active.

Note: Only one plugin window can have control of the AJA capture device at a time. If the

window you click on does not access the KONA (reporting Board: Active), either another
window is still processing operations or it is set in Manual activation mode and must be
disabled (check-box empty).

In Manual mode, you must check the Enable KONA box to activate the board control and un-
check it to release control. Upon startup of either Photoshop CS5 application, if the launched
plugin window is in Manual mode, the window will NOT activate until the enable box is
clicked again.
