CONFIGURATION
BUTTON DEFINITION SCREEN
The Button Definition screen is used to assign specific ‘actions’ to remote control buttons. ADVANTAGE
®
infrared & wall-mount remote
controls have twenty-eight buttons. However, the SPM522D supports twelve additional buttons, which are only available when using
Remote Interface Kit or RS-232 control (see Remote Controls on pg. 5 & Computer Control on pg. 15). From the factory, the SPM522D is
programmed as follows: Buttons 1~12 provide volume up, volume down, & mute actions for Mic 1, Mic 2, Zone Output, & Main Output;
Buttons 13~28 provide preset & channel select actions for Zone Output & Main Output; Buttons 29~40 provide no defined actions.
However, using the Button Definition screen, each button may be assigned various, different actions (button definition). There are eight
types of actions available for both the Main & Zone Outputs. Each action type
allows the selection of a more specific action. A button may
have one of each type of action assigned to it, thereby performing multiple functions. A button may also be assigned no actions at all,
thereby making that button inoperable. This is an effective way of limiting user access to certain settings or functions. Left-clicking a
Remote Control Button
will select that button to be defined. Left-clicking on a particular type of
Main
or
Zone
action will then open a
drop-down menu of the specific actions (of that type) which are available for the associated output. Left-clicking the desired action will then
assign that action to the currently selected button.
Preset Actions
includes various store, recall, & combine actions.
NOTE: Preset
Actions called ‘temp’ use the current settings for that output as a temporary preset, which will allow those settings to be restored later.
Program Select
includes various channel select, override, & enable mic actions.
NOTE: Program Select actions called ‘enable Mic’ will
also affect the ‘page-over’ ducking functions of that mic, at that output.
Program Volume
includes various volume, mute, duck, & balance
actions.
CAUTION: Program Volume actions affect the VCA which controls only the Stereo Line Input signals. This VCA also provides the
‘page-over’ ducking functions for Mic 1 & Mic 2, as well as a ‘ramp’ function for Override (see Front & Rear Panel Features on pgs. 2 & 3).
To avoid conflicts, do not
use Program Volume actions simultaneously with ‘page-over’ ducking or Override functions, at the same output.
Program Bass
&
Program Treble
include cut, boost, & flat actions.
Mic 1 Volume
,
Mic 2 Volume
, &
Output Volume
include various
volume & mute actions. Multiple actions may be assigned to a single button. Likewise, a particular action may be assigned to multiple
buttons. To un-assign a particular action from a button, left-click on the blank space at the top of the drop-down menu for that type action.
Left-clicking
Clear
opens a pop-up menu, which allows button definitions (actions) to be cleared from the selected button, or from all
buttons. Left-clicking
Default
opens a pop-up menu, which allows button definitions (actions) to be set back to the factory default for the
selected button, or for all buttons. Left-clicking
Remote Configuration
opens the Remote Port Configuration screen (see next page).
Left-clicking
Help
provides additional instruction. Left-clicking
Close
will return you to the Mix screen. Factory default button definitions
are those described for standard remote controls (see Remote Controls on pgs. 4 & 5). When a button is selected, its Equivalent ASCII
Character appears on the screen. ASCII characters can be used via RS-232 to emulate control buttons (see Computer Control on pg. 15).
