170 KAYENNE — User Manual
Section 3 — System Operation
Selecting keyers in the Next-Transition section of the Control Panel will
make those keyers initiators for the transition. Key Chaining causes the
chained (controlled) keyers to be selected as well. These chained keyers will
flash to indicate they are in the chain. The keys which do not flash are the
initiators. When the Lever Arm is moved, or the
Auto button is pressed, the
keys transition together.
If a selection is made for a keyer in the primary partition, and the chained
controlled key is in the secondary partition, the controlled keyers will tran
-
sition simultaneously with the keys in the primary partition, irrespective of
the delegation of the
SEC button (Source Select Module). The same is true
for selections made in the secondary partition with controlled keys in the
primary; they always delegate whether or not the
PRI button (Source Select
Module) is delegated. This behavior corresponds to the tally of the next-
transition buttons. The blinking tally indicates that the keys will transition.

lowing multiple ME key chain has been created:
