Ross Vision - Panel Row; Crosspoint Buses

Vision Operator’s Manual (v12.0 MD) Switcher Basics • Ops 4–5
Panel Row
The Panel Row (Figure 4.4) is used to select video sources for the Background, Preset and
Keyers of the MLE, Aux Bus or AuxKey that the panel row is assigned to. Video sources,
external and internal, are assigned to buttons on the Panel Row using a Bus Map. When a Bus
Map is assigned to a bus in a Panel Row, selecting one of those buttons on a bus tells the switcher
to use the corresponding video source for that bus. For example, if you select a crosspoint button
on the Keyer 1 bus of MLE 3 that is assigned to Camera 1, the switcher will use the Camera 1
video source for that keyer.
Figure 4.4 Vision 4 — Panel Row (4-Keyer Shown)
Each Panel Row is made up of three buses of crosspoint buttons, a display, a select button, Keyers
Module, Memory Module, and Transition Module (Figure 4.4). The functionality of each of
these components depends on what the Panel Row is assigned to, an MLE or Aux Bus for
example.
The number of crosspoint buttons and modules that are assigned to the Panel Row depends on
how the individual modules are mapped. Refer to the section “Mapping a Module to a Row” on
page Eng 17-5 for information on assigning modules to Panel Rows.
Crosspoint Buses
The Crosspoint Buses (Figure 4.5) are where you select what video sources are selected on each
bus. Each Panel Row contains a Key Bus, Background Bus, and a Preset Bus.
