Any connected devices can be run in sync during playback and editing after enabling the device ports. Enabling the device control is a precondition for all ports configured in Media Pool - Devices to work properly.
In the tool bar below the main menu click on Enable device ports. The devices will follow every Locator movement. Click on the button again to disable the device ports again.
As an alternative to pressing button Enable device ports, you can also press the F8 key.
When starting the synchronization process it may take a few seconds for the devices to respond.
When a message on tab Log saying that the firmware (operating software) of the control unit is not up-to-date, you should update it. Otherwise proper function cannot be guaranteed. To find out about the corresponding firmware version for your unit, refer to topic Documentation Status.
As a sign for active communication between the control unit and the computer, button is pressed. In addition to this, PC LEDs will light up at the Stumpfl control units. When an SC Net Port is used, the PC LED at the control unit goes out while SC Net commands are being transmitted and the SC Net LEDs light up.
If the projectors do not respond, despite the fact that the device control is activated, perform a systematic check of devices.
Individual devices or a number of devices in the Media Pool can be activated or deactivated. ..See Enabling/disabling devices.
Via a control panel field, devices can also be directly or, optionally, override controlled. See Control Panel for direct operation.
