To Set Up When a Tally is Triggered

By default, the highest number ME in the switcher is tallied as the program ME. Anything selected or re-entered on this ME is considered on-air.

  1. Press HOME > Setup > Installation > Output > ME / Aux Tally.
  2. Use the Bus knob to select the type of bus you want to tally.
    • ME — select an ME
    • Aux — select an aux bus
  3. Use the ME/Aux knob to select the ME or aux bus that you want to set up the tally for.
    Tip: The ME X B selections represent the B-side of a split ME.
  4. Use the Tally Path knob to select how sources selected on the bus are tallied.
    • On Air — sources on the bus are only tallied when they are selected or re-entered on the program ME.
    • PGM X (Always) — sources on the bus are always tallied and tagged with PGM Calculation Path X.
      Tip: PGM Calculation Paths are combined with Tally Bit Slots (Communications menu) to encode the path information in the TSL output.
