Remote-Only Mode
When the default Remote-Only Mode (Front
Panel Lockout) is enabled in the SYNC I/O Setup
Preferences window, none of the SYNC I/O
front panel switches are operational, and the Re-
mote Only LED is lit.
To exit Remote-Only mode from the front panel:
■ Simultaneously press and hold down the
Clock Reference, Positional Reference, and
Frame Rate front panel switches.
This will disengage SYNC I/O from Remote-
Only mode. This is useful when the host com-
puter is not easily accessible.
