Clip Control Overview
You can recall Video Server Clips using either the Clip Number or the Clip ID to recall a clip
from the keypad on the Global Memory Module.
• Clip Number — The Video Server Clip Number is the 2-digit number that corresponds
to the Video Server Clip Register. This is the default mode that the Global Memory
System is in when a Video Server is selected as a source.
• Clip ID — The Video Server Clip ID is the 6-digit number that is set up on the Video
Server itself. Clip IDs, must be numerical to be able to recall them using the keypad.
Leading zero cannot be specified when entering a Clip ID. For example, entering 12 on
the keypad loads Clip 12, and not Clip 000012.
All Video Servers that support Clip IDs can toggle between using Clip IDs and Clip Numbers.
Cueing a Clip Using the Keypad
Clips can be recalled from the keypad on the Global Memory Module using either the Clip ID or
the Clip Number. The keypad is automatically assigned to clip recall when a BNC that is assigned
to a Video Server is selected.
Use the following procedure to cue a clip using the keypad:
1. Toggle RECALL CLIP on the Global Memory Module to show the Video Server Clip
ID or Clip Number on the display.
2. Enter the Clip ID, or Clip Number, using the keypad on the Global Memory Module.
3. Press ENTER to cue the clip.

Video Server Remote Control Menu
The Remote Control Menu allows you to cue different clips using the Clip Registers, or by
using the transport controls to move to different timecodes. You can then play the clip directly, or
use the ROLL CLIP button on the Transition Modules to play the clip with the next transition.
You can also access the Remote Control Menu by pressing the crosspoint button assigned to the
video server you want to control.
The timecode at the top of the Remote Control Menu is the time remaining for the current clip
on the Program bus, or Keyer. This may not be the currently selected clip.
