Breakaways (and Interlevels) Pane
The Breakaways panel allows you to do the following:
• Monitor which route paths are connected to the currently selected Des-
tination and from which Source.
• Establish Breakaways, i.e., select the Levels and route them through the
channels required.
The Show Sources indicator button allows you to identify the Source of each
of the Levels connected to the selected Destination. When the button is
toggled on (indicator shows green), the names of the Sources currently con
-
nected to the selected Destination are shown on the Next State indicator
buttons on the right; the Levels which are not connected are greyed out.
When the Show Sources button is toggled off (indicator shows black), the Next
State
indicator buttons on the right show the names of the Levels.
The Current State indicators on the left show the status of the Levels of the
currently selected Destination. These indicators are highlighted in different
colors as follows:
Green — The Level is connected between the Source and the selected Des-
tination.
Red — The Level is broken away, i.e., the Level is being provided by a
Source other than that shown on the UMD below the selected Destination.
Black — The selected Destination does not provide for the input of this
Level type.
Yellow — An interlevel routing has been established.
The Next State indicator buttons display the names of the Levels. They can
be toggled (by clicking them) and are highlighted in different colors with
the following significance:
Green — Connect this Level to the selected Destination when the next
Source is selected; the current Destination supports it.
Red — Connect this Level to the selected Destination when the next Source
is selected; the current Destination does not support it.
Black — Do not connect this Level to the selected Destination when the next
Source is selected.
Clicking the Up and Down Arrow buttons allows you to scroll through up to
sixteen Levels. If the arrow button is grey, then you can scroll no further in
that direction.
Note Interlevel routing is available via Options/Config mode. The Next State indi-
cator buttons in the Breakaways Area reflect the status of the Destination
Interlevel buttons.
