MIXER LIST WINDOW

The Mixer List provides information about your LecNet
setup. Here, you may list up to eight AM8 or AM16
mixers to be monitored by the VI24. Each mixer and
each mixer input may be named, for convenience and
ease of use. It is recommended that you name the
mixers so you may easily identify them, and that you
name the mixer inputs after the person or item associ­
ated with the microphone.

If your LecNet setup is connected, you may use the
“Probe LecNet” button to detect up to eight mixers. You
will probably still want to assign your own names to the
mixers and inputs, though the default names may also
be used.

The “Clear Inputs” button is a simple expedient to erase
all mixer input names.

PIN ASSIGNMENTS WINDOW

The Pin Assignments Window lets you assign
mixer inputs, alone or in groups, to the VI24’s
24 logic outputs. Only one logic output’s
information is shown at any one time, but the
scrolling arrows in the bottom right corner may
be used, as well as the numbered buttons or
Pin Assignments submenu in the main win­
dow, to move among the pins.

Each pin may be associated with any of the
inputs of up to two mixers, as shown. If more
elaborate configurations are needed (i.e. more
than two mixers on a single pin), multiple
output pins may be shorted together. The
output is then asserted if either pin’s condi­
tions are met.

The Overview Pin

Any one pin may also be designated as the “overview
pin”. The intended purpose of the overview pin is to
reduce viewer fatigue by activating an overview camera
(showing the entire room) in situations where no other
camera selection would be appropriate. The overview
pin is not associated with any mixer inputs and is as­
serted either during periods of inactivity or during
periods of excessive activity (conflicts). The Pin Assign­
ments window is used to choose an overview pin, but the
Options window determines under what circumstances
the overview pin is active.
