Control Panel Operation VGA Display
6−140 CM 4000 Installation and Operating Manual
Note 2: If the cursor mode in the switcher status display will not work, it may be that no CP 3000 was defined
for the VGA on the MPK Devices table (page 5−114).
Force Unprotect / Force Unlock
As a supervisory system, the VGA / CP 3000 can be configured such that it can unprotect or unlock any output
shown on the display.
— If the panel has been so configured on a permanent basis (as described on page 5−114), place the cursor on the
output and press PROTECT (or LOCK) and TAKE.
— If the panel has not been configured permanently, login to the panel using a 90 level or above password. This
will allow use of the force unprotect/unlock command until logout.
For additional protect/lock information − See page 6−12.

Up to 32
Delegation
groups
A machine and delegation status page (Figure 6−172) can provide a list of all VTRs and other machines listed on the Machine
Control Devices table (page 5−135). The UP and DOWN buttons (or arrow buttons on the CP 3020) will step through addi-
tional pages of machines. Hold the key down to auto−repeat.
Depending on the machine, TMC (Transport Motion Control) status is shown as follows:
OFF NOT REM EJECT STOP STOP−RDY PLAY VAR PLAY FAST F REWIND SHUTTLE + SHUTTLE −
Note: Delegation Groups are not supported by Jupiter XPress.
CURSOR MODE − SELECTING A MACHINE FOR CONTROL
To enter cursor mode, press SELECT on the CM 4000 (or CURSOR MODE on the CP 3020). This will cause
the name of the first machine to appear in reverse video. When in cursor mode, the UP and DOWN buttons (or
arrow buttons) will move the cursor from one machine to another. A machine pointed to by the cursor is automati-
cally selected as the machine to be controlled by the adjacent MC 3000 Machine Control Panel (i.e., the MC 3000
connected to the CM 4000 providing the VGA display).
