The name of the monitor configuration
currently active on the control surface will
be shown at the top of the screen, and the
name of the monitor configuration currently
being viewed/edited on the screen will be
shown underneath.
Save To File - Load Into Desk
Changes to the monitor configuration
being viewed/edited will not take effect
until
SAVE TO FILE LOAD INTO DESK
is selected. Then the changes will be
transmitted to the panels and saved to
C:/sigma/cust1/monitor.
If any changes are made to the monitor
configuration, the
SAVE TO FILE LOAD
INTO DESK button will flash (until selected)
to indicate that the changes to the monitor
configuration being viewed/edited have
not yet been saved and loaded onto the
console.
Open File
OPEN FILE will allow a previously saved
monitor configuration to be chosen.
When a file is opened, the configuration
will be loaded into the front end screens as
“the monitor configuration being viewed or
edited”, it is not sent straight to the control
surface.
SAVING ANd RESTORING CONfIGURATIONS
The monitor configuration can then be
edited if desired and when it is ready to be
used, select
SAVE TO FILE LOAD INTO
DESK, and the revised file will be saved
and the settings sent to the control surface.
Open Active Config
OPEN ACTIVE CONFIG retrieves the
settings that the panels are currently using
and displays them on the front end screens
replacing the current monitor configuration
being viewed/edited.
Save To File
SAVE TO FILE will save the configuration
being viewed/edited to c:/sigma/cust1/
monitor without loading it onto the
console.
Save Options to Disk and Flash
As the monitor setup screens are part of
the options set of screens, it is important to
save the options to disk and flash once the
monitor configuration is set up.
The Options screens are used to pre-set
the system to the studio’s required settings.
These settings are not stored in the
individual console memories but are saved
and loaded separately using the buttons
at the bottom of the screen. Although
the monitor configuration itself is saved
seperately, its active state on the console
has to be saved using these buttons.
Changes to options take effect as soon
as they are made. However, if they are
not saved, the next time the desk boots
up the options will revert to their previous
settings, which could mean that a different
monitor configuration is loaded onto the
console. This could cause problems should
the console have to be reset during a live
broadcast. It does however allow changes
to be tried out without losing the original
settings and these original settings can
be restored without having to re-boot the
system.
