In this example, the scroll wheel is being used to list all sources that can be routed to the destination
VTR 1, based upon the SDI routing level. When the scroll wheel is rotated, the names of source
equipment are progressively displayed to make it very easy to find the desired video source.
How to select devices using the customizable buttons and scroll wheel
If you have customized the Videohub port labels, you can use the customizable buttons and
scroll wheel together to find a short list of sources and destinations. This method is fast and
intuitive because you only have to scroll through a short list of equipment and you don’t have to
remember any port numbers. This method is very helpful if you label types of equipment
together by name, e.g., VTR, Cam and Mon.
1 Press the DEST button. The destination field will be highlighted blue on the LCD.
2 If your Videohub router has RS-422 remote control, press the LEVEL button until you
have set the appropriate routing level for your equipment. Otherwise you can skip
this step.
3 Press a button you have customized for a type of destination equipment, e.g., VTR.
The button should light up gold.
4 Scroll the wheel forwards or backwards until the desired destination is found. In this
example, the destination VTR will be displayed on the LCD. If you make a mistake,
press the white CLEAR button and scroll until the correct destination is displayed.
5 Press the SRC button. The source field will be highlighted blue on the LCD.
6 Press a button you have customized for a type of source equipment, e.g., a capture
card. The button should light up white.
7 Scroll the wheel forwards or backwards until the desired source is found. In this
example, the source capture card will be displayed on the LCD. If you make a mistake,
press the white CLEAR button and scroll until the correct destination is displayed.
8 The TAKE button will flash red, awaiting your confirmation of the route change.
Press TAKE and the route will change immediately. Otherwise, press CLEAR and no
route change will take place. Videohub Master Control will then return to its idle state
with the latest route displayed on the LCD.
If any button you have customized for either a source or destination flashes but does
not stay lit, Videohub Master Control is preventing you from selecting the button
because the equipment type has not been labeled as a source or destination device
or does not match the current routing level. For example, cameras should not usually
be set as destination devices, monitors should not be set as source devices and won’t
match the RS-422 routing level. Refer back to Creating Button Labels in Configuring
Videohub Master Control Pro for steps on how to change this.
