To Select a Source on a Bus on Carbonite Black

The buttons on each bus of the panel row are used to select the source that is mapped to that button. For example, when you press the source button mapped to a Media​-Store the video from that Media​-Store is routed to the bus.

  1. Assign the panel row to the resource that you want to select a source on.
    Tip: If you only want to select a source on an aux bus or chroma key, you don't have to assign the panel row to a different resource, only the key bus.
  2. Press the source button for the video source you want to assign to that bus. Press and hold the SHIFT button to access the shifted bus.
    Note: Ensure that the source selected on the bus you want to enter onto the ME, MiniME, chroma key, MultiScreen, aux or keyer is valid for that destination. If the source is not valid, you will not be able to select the bus on the ME, MiniME, Aux, chroma key, or keyer.
    Tip: Double-press the SHIFT button to lock the button row to the shifted bus. Press the SHIFT button again to return to the non-shifted bus. The Shift-Lock is reset when the ME is reset, but not when a factory default or switcher set is recalled.
    Tip: Selecting a source on the background bus, or 'hot punching', changes the video source on the background of the ME, MiniME, or MultiScreen.
