How to Select Sources and Destinations
Videohub Master Control Pro provides several ways to select and switch your destinations and
sources quickly, depending upon whether you have customized the port labels on your
Videohub router or if you just want to enter port numbers directly.
Videohub Master Control Pro works in the same conceptual way as any other router control.
These are the basic steps you will take, regardless of your method for selecting devices.
1
Press the DEST button to display a destination on the LCD. Use the pushbuttons and/or
the scroll wheel to find the desired destination.
2
Press SRC and use the buttons and/or the scroll wheel to change the source connected
to the destination.
3
Press TAKE to confirm the route change.
How to select devices by typing the Videohub port numbers
If you've chosen to keep the default labels for all Videohub SDI and remote ports, you can
simply type the port numbers to make a routing change. This method is fast but requires that
you remember port numbers or have devised a system for knowing what equipment is
connected to each Videohub port.
1
Press the DEST button. The destination field will be highlighted blue on the LCD.
2
If your Videohub router has RS-422 remote control, press the LEVEL button until you
have set the appropriate routing level for your equipment. Otherwise you can skip
this step.
3
Type in the destination port number using the numeric pushbuttons. Each button will
flash gold once as you press it. The destination will be displayed on the LCD. If you
make a mistake, press the white CLEAR button and retype the port number.
4
Press the SRC button. The source field will be highlighted blue on the LCD.
5
Type in the source port number using the numeric pushbuttons. Each button will flash
white once as you press it. The source will be displayed on the LCD. If you make a
mistake, press the white CLEAR button and retype the port number.
6
The TAKE button will flash red, awaiting your confirmation of the route change. Press
TAKE and the route will change immediately. Otherwise, press CLEAR and no route
change will take place. Videohub Master Control returns to its idle state with the latest
route displayed on the LCD.
