Unlocking a Channel

• Click again the Lock button.
When you unlock a channel in such a way, it remains locked to the other users. You need
to unlock it from the Channel Explorer to make it available to other users.
3.4. Enabling the On-Air Feature
Purpose
The On-Air status is used to show that the selected player channel is on air and to inform
other users that they should not perform any action on the on-air channel.
Constraints
The following conditions must be met for the On Air option to be available for a player
channel:
• the user has the control right on this channel
• this channel is not locked.
How to Set a Player Channel to the On-Air Mode
The On-Air function can be enabled in two ways:
• The operator right-clicks the Player field and select On Air from the contextual menu.
• The operator fires an external a GPI trigger to which the Tally (On Air) action is
associated. This will automatically activate the On-Air function on the Control Panel.
The actions linked to the GPI keys are defined in the Input GPIs window available
from the IPDirector main menu Tools > Settings. See the General Functions user
manual for more information on how to define Input GPI.
The Player field background will then flash alternately red.
