Group List
The group list allows viewing and editing of groups.
Open the Group List
To open the group list you can:
• Press [Group] [Group]
• In the browser, select “Group List” from the Record Target Lists
You can navigate within the group list using [Next] and [Last] or by selecting the group you want to
work with.
Ordered View and Numeric View
By default, grouped channels will be displayed in ordered view. Therefore, grouped channels will
appear in the order they were added to the group (see Ordered Channels above). If you wish to
view the channels in numeric view, press the [Format] key and the view will be switched (channels
will appear in numeric order from lowest to highest).
This setting is important in defining next and last functionality within groups in live/blind. If left in
numeric format, when using [Next] or [Last] group selection channels will be selected in numeric
order. If left in ordered view, they will be selected based on their order of being stored to the group.
