Controller Sections
Following are descriptions of each button’s function on the Source Selection Bus.
Source Buttons — press to assign the source to the blinking “mixer” button in the Layer
Control Section.
•When the source button is lit and blinking:
~The source is on Preview.
~The associated layer is active for modification.
~The associated layer’s raster box is blinking on Preview.
•When lit solid, the source is on Preview — but its associated layer is not active for
modification.
•Multiple source buttons can be lit simultaneously, but only one source button can
be blinking — with its associated layer active for modification and the associated
raster box blinking on Preview.
•When the Red LED above a source button is lit solid, the source is on Program.
•When the Red LED above a source button is blinking:
~The associated mixer is set to Mix Mode.
~In the mixer, the blinking Red LED indicates the layer that is on Program.
~In the associated mixer, the layer opposite to the blinking Red LED is
enabled for modification, with the associated raster box blinking.
SThe Red LED above source 1 is blinking, and the Red LED above layer 1A is
blinking. This indicates that mixer 1 is set to Mix Mode, with source 1 on
Program in layer 1A and layer 1B active for modification.
•Multiple Red LEDs can be lit simultaneously, but only one Red LED can be
blinking — indicating a “Mix Mode” association.
•Source buttons cannot be selected if they have not been assigned during the
source setup procedure. The button(s) will not light.
Source buttons are also used in the following modes:
•Source buttons can be used to route inputs to Aux destinations. In Chapter 7,
see the “Routing Sources to Aux Destinations” section on page 316 for details.
•In “live switch” mode, source buttons can be used to switch the input to a PIP
directly on Program. In Chapter7, refer to the “Working with Live Modes”
section on page 340 for complete instructions on all destination modes.
Shift — the Shift button is a toggle: press once to light, press again to turn off. When lit,
press the desired source button to access the second row of numbered sources (e.g., 13 -
24 on the Controller SC).
In Chapter 7, refer to the “Switching Sources” section on page319 for additional details.

Note Without the blinking Red LEDs in Mix Mode, you would not
be able to tell which layer/source combination was on
Program in the selected mixer.
