FEATURES
The 4000CL-MAV-PBIO, 400 Clip Instant Access System consists of the ST300-SSM with
Cliplist software.
With this Option, the ST300 has 4 Peripheral Device Addresses, one for each VTR that it controls.
This allows the production switcher to control any and all VTRs connected to the ST300.
Upon receipt of the Learn command from the production switcher, the ST300 saves the CLIP IDs
of the currently loaded clips, the current time of each clip, the VTRs they are loaded on, and the
current GANG mode, into the appropriate Cue Point.
When the Recall command is received, the ST300 loads the “Learned” Clips onto the “Learned”
VTRs, cues the Clip to the “Learned” time, then restores the “Learned” GANG mode.
The Trigger function on the production switcher puts the selected VTRs into Play, Stop, Recue or
other available modes.
