Chapter 6 Setup Menu

Preset Mode

This mode of operation is intended for situations where a number of

pre-defined unit configurations is all you need. This allows even the

most non-technical person to quickly scan through a list of sources to

monitor, without having to understand the operation of the rest of the

unit, or which source is plugged into which input of this unit.

In Preset mode, the Input button cycles through the defined presets.

With Preset mode enabled, you can recall a preset by pressing only the

Input button to access each stored preset by name, rather than by

signal type.

To enable or disable Preset mode:

1. Press Fn+Setup.

2. Use the Up and Down arrow buttons until PSet Mode appears in

the LCD window and press Enter.

3. Press the

Up and Down arrow buttons to toggle between Disa

(disabled) and Ena (enabled). Press

Enter to accept the new

setting, or press

Escape to cancel the change. Either way, you will

be returned to the Setup menu.

4. Press

Escape again to return to normal operation.

Erasing a Preset

This menu command allows you to erase a stored preset. Pressing the

Enter button will allow the user to choose a preset to erase.

Note:

When this mode is enabled, you can no longer directly select

the inputs by the input type (e.g., AES 1, SDI 2, analog, and

so on). The inputs are accessed only indirectly through the

presets in this mode. To access the inputs by input type, you

must disable Preset mode first

Note:

This selection will not appear if all the presets are

empty. In this case, you will need to store at least one

preset to enable this menu item.
