7 Understanding the Modes
This section describes the different system and confirmation modes.
7.1 About the System Modes
By default, a switcher starts in the standalone mode and the IN SYSTEM key
does not illuminate. Pressing the IN SYSTEM key twice toggles to the IN
SYSTEM mode.
This section describes the Standalone and the IN SYSTEM modes, as
follows:
7.1.1 Standalone Mode
In the standalone mode:
The switcher implements actions independently and separately from the others
Upon starting the system, only one MACHINE IN SYSTEM # illuminates on
the remote controller
7.1.2 IN SYSTEM Mode
In the IN SYSTEM mode:
Several switchers with different kinds of signals are connected as a system
operating as a universal switcher 1
More than one MACHINE IN SYSTEM # illuminates 2 to indicate the units
that are connected as part of a system. Each MACHINE IN SYSTEM # for
those IN SYSTEM units will not illuminate. However, on each of the IN
SYSTEM units, the respective IN SYSTEM button continues to illuminate
Any executed action affects all units in the system
7.2 About the Confirmation Modes
By default, the unit starts in the AT ONCE mode, that is, if an OUT-IN
combination is pressed, it will be implemented immediately. Pressing the
TAKE button twice, toggles between the CONFIRM and the AT ONCE
modes.
This section describes the CONFIRM and the AT ONCE modes, as follows:
1 Each switches in the same order according to the entered command, with one or more of them following the other units
2 The IN SYSTEM button on each unit also illuminates
