Control Panel VKEY 100 / external keyboard – OUTPUT: SELECT PREVIEW

With this feature you can choose what is to be visible on the Preview screen after pressing a function key. Select a source from the drop-down list in the Output Media field.

Control Panel VKEY 100 / external keyboard – MEDIA: SELECT

If you have more than one file to choose from as a source in the tray, Media: Select function will allow you to select a proper file. First, from the drop-down list in the Media Stream field select a tray: Media1, Media2, Still 1, Still2, Text1, Text 2 or Sound. Then, in the Container Page field, select Page tab number, and in the Media File field, set a path to the file by clicking on an icon with 3 dots. Files (or rather their shortcut icons, as the files themselves remain on the disk and are not copied to the trays) can be added earlier to the tray and so that they appear in the window. If you want to add a shortcut to a file that is not in the tray, but is on the disk, click on the black background in the open window, not on any of the files shortcuts’ icons. You will be automatically transferred to the folders on the disk. After selecting the file
from the disk and clicking on it, its shortcut icon is added to the tray.

Note: When you play a sequence of multiple files (All Play) from a given tray and you use Triggers function Media: Select concerning one of the files in the sequence, then the sequence will be turned off and solely the selected file will be played.

Control Panel VKEY 100 / external keyboard – MEDIA: AUTO PLAY

This feature allows you to turn Auto Play function on for a chosen tray: Media1, Media2, Still1, Still2 Text1 or Text2. When you enable Media: Auto Play feature, a file from the tray will start playing from the beginning when going on the air (i.e. to the Program screen), regardless of whether it is to be displayed full screen or on a virtual screen in the scenography. If a Mark in tag has been set for the file, the file will start playing from that point. If this is a Play list, it will start from the beginning of the first file or from the Mark in tag in the first file.

Control Panel VKEY 100 / external keyboard – fetch properties DSK1 DSK2

As the certain set of functions is repeated frequently when programming the Triggers for DSK, in order to facilitate your work, Fetch Properties panel has been placed at the bottom of the window. This allows you to load a sequence of the most commonly used functions for DSK by pressing a button for a given
DSK.

When you press the second of the two DSK buttons, a subsequent set of functions will be loaded. You have to pay attention which function has been highlighted last, as a beginning of an inserted new sequence will be in that place.

Just like the previous one, this function allows you to move content (logo, subtitles, etc.) from the Preview screen to Program, but via Fade transition. You can set the speed, that is duration, of this transition in seconds or in frames. This function also allows you to remove the content from the air (Program) back to the Preview screen.
