Figure 5-49. User Preference Menu (sample)
The User Preference Menu enables you to set a variety of user parameters. The following
functions are provided:
Black Invalid Video — selects the method by which the scaler’s “loading”
procedure is shown on Preview, when you change inputs:
~ON — shows black when scalers are loaded. In addition, black is shown
when a background channel (BG) becomes invalid, and the DSK will be
turned off when source video becomes invalid.
~OFF — shows the full scaler loading procedure, which can temporarily
include non-sync and non-stable video.
Auto Source Acquire — selects whether or not the Controller automatically
acquires an input, as soon as the source is selected on the bus — provided it
does not currently have a saved input configuration file.
Auto Input Save — selects whether or not the Controller automatically saves an
input configuration file, as soon as the source has been successfully acquired.
The Auto Source Acquire function must be enabled.
Events Manager Support — This function assists with Preset recall
performance, when large numbers of Presets are being used. In this condition,
set the field to OFF (the default setting). If Events Manager support is required,
enable the field before connecting the Controller to the Events Manager software.
Mix Key — applies to the Mix button on both controllers. On the menu, the Trans
Rate field below this heading allows you to select a custom transition rate with the
Mix button. When Mix is pressed on the controller, the “custom” transition rate is
applied, and the transition type (if currently different) is changed to a mix. Note
that the Trans Type and Trans Edge Width fields are grayed out, because you
can only perform a mix with the Mix button.
User Effect — applies to the User Effect button on the small controller. On the
menu, the three fields below this heading allow you to program a custom
