Resume the Sequence (menu 5)
After a sequence has been stopped, SmartControl remembers which sequence
was running. To resume the stopped sequence, select the Operation Submenu
and place the cursor under the >. Use the Up/Down keys to display “Resume”.
Press Enter to resume running the sequence that was stopped. There is no
sequence number required; it can only resume the sequence that was last
running.
Delete a Sequence (menu 5)
1. To delete a sequence, place the cursor at the upper left hand corner of
the LCD display (position 0,0), then use the Up/Down keys to select the
Operation Submenu, see picture.
2. With the cursor at the 1,9 position, use the Up/Down cursor keys to
scroll through the menu choices until “DELETE” is displayed (where Start
is shown in the picture).
3. Move the cursor to the SEQ position and enter the number of the
sequence to be deleted.
4. Press Enter to delete the sequence.
Program Menus (6)
The Program Menus are the third step in automating the Matrix 200. (Previous
menus, 1-5, must be used to prepare for the use of this menu.) This feature is
especially convenient for video post-production and program distribution where
full switching automation is desired.
In the Matrix 200, a Program uses the built-in clock and calendar to load a ready-
made Sequence (see menu 5) or a Preset (see menu 4) at a specific date and
time.
_______ Only one program can exist at one time.
For example, Sequence 02 may consist of the following steps:
Step 01, load preset 1 to run for 10 minutes.
Step 02, load preset 5 to run for 25 minutes.
Step 03, load preset 7 for 45 minutes.
When a Sequence is loaded, it will loop (repeat) until it is stopped.
To select the Program (PG) menu press Menu, followed by “6”. Observe that the
Program menu is displayed. The three Program menus are described on the
following page.
In the following example, program the Matrix 200 to load Sequence 02 on 31
October, 1997 (31/10/97), at 3:15 p.m. (15:15:00).
_______ 1. Both date and time must be set for a program to run; neither entry can be
skipped.
2. Using an old date will give an invalid date error.
