Remote Aux Panel Operation
The Remote Aux Panels are one-piece panels that provide remote control, or monitoring,
capability over one, or more, of the Aux Buses on the switcher. These panels are typically located
close to the destination device that they route their sources to. Video does not flow through these
panels, instead, the Remote Aux Panel interfaces with the switcher to control the outputs of the
Aux Bus.
Remote Aux Panel Overview
In addition to crosspoint buttons, all Remote Aux Panels include dedicated buttons for Program,
all available MLEs, and Clean Feed. The Assignable Remote Aux Panel (Figure 11.3) for all
Vision switchers are similar, and differ only in the number of crosspoint buttons, MLE buttons,
and Assign buttons.
Figure 11.3 Assignable Remote Aux Panel
All Remote Aux Panels include an on-air LED that indicates, when lit, that the Aux Bus controls
a video signal that is part of the program output.
Note — The Dedicated Remote Aux Panels are similar to the Assignable Remote Aux
Panels, with the exception that they do not have the Aux Bus Assign Group buttons.

• on installing a Remote Aux Panel, refer to the section “Installing Auxiliary Panels” on
page Eng 14-5.
Using a Remote Aux Panel
Source selection on both the Assignable Remote Aux Panel and the Dedicated Remote Aux Panel
is the same as selecting sources on the crosspoint group of the control panel. The sources that are
assigned to the crosspoint buttons depend on the Bus Map that has been assigned to the Aux Bus
the Remote Aux Panel is controlling.
The Assignable Remote Aux Panel can be assigned to any of either the first 10 or 12 Aux buses
on the switcher, depending on the Remote Aux Panel you are using. The Remote Aux Panel can
be assigned to the first 12.
To assign the Remote Aux Panel to a particular Aux bus, you must use the assign buttons on the
Remote Aux Panel. These buttons are used in conjunction with each other to select a particular
Aux bus, as shown in the following table (Table 11.1).
Note — The Aux Buses that the buttons on the Remote Aux Panel are mapped to depends on
the Aux Bus range that was assigned to the External Link port.
