About Snapshots
Snapshots are record targets that store the current state of the Ion external monitor configuration.
These can then be recalled to instantly reset the displays to the state stored in the snapshot. You can
choose which parts of the displays you wish to store as a part of the snapshot.
When you record a snapshot, aspects of the Ion user-interface, based on user-preference, are stored
so that you can recall them in the future. This allows you to bring the console back to a desired state
quickly.
Snapshots can be used on RPUs or RVIs to change what is currently displayed on the external mon-
itors and how that information is displayed.
Snapshots contents are global. They can be stored and recalled on any control interface, other than
Net3 RFRs. When recorded, they store the relevant settings of the device initiating the record. When
recalled, they recall only the controls that are appropriate on the device the snapshot is recalled.
Note: Snapshots that store the faders do not include the active cue in a fader. They only
include pending cues and fader attributes.
Snapshots of just a single monitor can also be recorded. See Single Monitor Snapshots (on page40)
for more information.
Recording Snapshots
