5.3.7 Setup source
One possibility to open the Source properties dialog is to use the command Setup source… of the Module
menu or the shortcut menu, if a video object on the work area is selected. The displaying properties and other
related properties of the source of this object can be changed.
The other possibility is to open the Module properties dialog, select the respective source on the source tab and
press the properties button to edit the properties, please refer to section
5.3.4 Setup module (Sources) above.
The title bar of the Source properties dialog indicates the type of the input board that is used to insert the
source and the name of the source. The dialog contains six tabs: The Video/RGB, Audio, Alarm, Tally, VBI and
Copy tab. On the five first tabs the properties can be determined. On the Copy tab a selection of properties of
the edited source can be copied to the sources selected in the sources list.
At the bottom of the dialog there is an OK button. Clicking this button confirms the chosen settings and closes
the dialog. Clicking the Update button applies the changes to the selected source but keeps the dialog open for
further changes.
Updating causes the Cancel button to become red. This signals that canceling can not reverse the
changes. The Cancel button anyhow closes the dialog.
Video/RGB tab
Depending on the connected source either a Video tab or an RGB tab is displayed. On this tab the display charac-
teristics can be set. When releasing a slider after moving it, the new setting will directly be adapted. If the source
is displayed on the projection module changes can directly be viewed. Numeral values can also be inserted in
the text boxes. In general, values become just permanently set when the OK or Update button is pressed. Click-
ing the Default button restores the iS
TUDIO default settings for a video or RGB source.
