When there are patch connections to other systems in the RELINK network
– e.g. when using a mic input of another Vista or OnAir console – or when
outputs are patched to a Route 6000 or to an other console, the local Vista
will receive status messages from these systems.
Vista systems receive and display the following message types from OnAir
and Route 6000 systems:
• PowerlossonCoreandD21mframes
• D21mhardwarechange
• Systemshutdown
Vista systems send the following message type:
• Systemshutdown
These messages are all displayed in the same type of window that also shows
mic control messages:
As long as no sources or targets of a remote system are used locally, no status
messages of these systems are shown on the local Vista.
8.7 Labels from Other Systems
When patching remote inputs to a Vista system, the ‘user label’ of this input
on the remote system is propagated to the Vista’s input channel label display.
8.8 Locked Patch Points
Locked patch points are treated in the same way as local sources.
8.9 Stereo and Surround Sources
The following remote sources can also be in stereo or 5.1 surround formats:
• VistaDirectOutputs(Input,GroupandMasterchannels)
• StereoandSurroundInputsfromOnAirconsoles.
These sources can be patched directly, with one single patch point connection,
to a local target.
