important to learn the terms and
functions thoroughly.

Board Configuration
When starting AutoCast, if the
system has two video output boards
and no Compix application is run-
ning, a window will pop up like the
one to the right. Since the configu-
ration of each channel is hardware
specific, selecting the right channel
to open AutoCast in is imperative.

If you would like
AutoCast opened
on both channels,
select the Open
Both checkbox
before pressing OK.
AutoCast will open
on both channels al-
lowing for immediant
interaction. If you do not receive
a Select Channel
option when open-
ing AutoCast on a
two channel Compix
system, then one
channel is already
occupied by a Com-
pix software.
