Processor / Back Panel Associations

Figure 1-2shows how Processor numbers (PR) coincide with the Cue Tone ports and Relay ports on the back panel. For example, a DSR-6402 has two processors. The two services use cue tones Q1 (for Processor 1) and Q2 (for Processor 2). To execute Ad insertions, the two processors also use Relay port 1 (for Processor 1) and Relay port 2 port (for Processor 2). Figure 1-2also shows how all PR fields are linked within the menu system.

Note: The DSR-6401 has one processor and does not display the PR field on any menu. It also uses three Relay ports (supporting up to three pos- sible ad insertion choices).

The other models have one dedicated relay for each processor (supporting only one ad insertion choice per processor). For more ad insertion choices, use Cue Tones instead.

Changing any one of the PR fields will change all PR fields throughout the entire menu system.
