In order to see which video source has been routed to a video destination, tap a
destination button and the associated video source button will illuminate.
Locking and Unlocking Routes
Locking a destination avoids accidental changes of the video source being routed to that
destination. To lock a route between an input and an output, double-tap the destination
pushbutton. A yellow padlock icon will appear in the top-left corner of the destination
pushbutton and will prevent anyone else from using the destination device until it is unlocked
from your iPad. Double-tap the destination pushbutton again to unlock. Locking a destination
still leaves the associated video source available for routing to multiple destinations
simultaneously.
Locking a route between an input and an output also locks the RS-422 deck control connection
between the two devices. This is to avoid other users accidentally seizing the deck control
belonging to the video source.
The RS-422 connection between the video source and video destination will remain locked
until the destination pushbutton is unlocked.
A gray padlock icon will appear on any destination pushbuttons that other users have locked.
The video destination devices will not be available to you until the destination pushbuttons
have been unlocked from the other users’ computers and iPads.
If you encounter a gray padlock icon and do not know who locked the video device you can
override the lock using the Videohub software on a Mac or Windows computer. When a route is
unlocked, the padlock icon will disappear.
