Ki Pro Installation and Operation Manual — STATUS menus
STATUS menus
The STATUS menus display I/O status and Alarm information. The STATUS menu can be
accessed almost anytime and will not change any active transport modes. Like the
CONFIG and MEDIA menus, STATUS display screens can be viewed by pushing the
SELECT up or down buttons. Pressing STATUS will exit the screens and return to
TRANSPORT mode, where an action could still be occurring (like playback or even
recording).
Record Mode (TRANSPORT )
Line 1: displays the input format, the 4 characters on the right display the selected
input video format. The 4 character video symbols are: SDI, CMP, HDMI
Line 2: displays the record format—the 4 characters on the right display the selected
audio input. The 4 character audio symbols are: SDI, XLR, RCA, HDMI
Here are some STATUS display examples of record mode:
Alarm Status
The Alarm menu displays warnings and alarms. Some alarms will automatically be
shown on the display. Others will only be seen by checking the STATUS displays (press
Select up/down to cycle through them). If everything is OK, then a “SYSTEM NORMAL”
message will be seen when you cycle through the STATUS displays.
You will be alerted to an alarm condition by having all backlit keys and the display flash
to full intensity for 2 seconds. If more than one alarm state is active, then the display
will hold each alarm notification for 3 seconds before cycling to the next alarm. These
alarm notifications override whatever the display is currently showing for the
TRANSPORT or STATUS menus. Once there is a Ki Pro alarm active (e.g. Invalid Selection)
the STATUS button light will blink for as long as the alarm is present. This alerts you so
you’ll know the reasons for the alarm condition are still active—you can then press the
STATUS button to determine what the alarm condition is.
CONFIG and MEDIA menus, once entered after an alarm notification, will cause the
alarm display to go away. Pushing any button always returns Ki Pro to its pre-alarm
state—however, if the alarm condition still exists after this initial button push (i.e., the
reason for the alarm), the alarm notification will reappear on the display. Note: the
STATUS button will blink if there is an active alarm condition.
Examples of ALARM displays are shown following this page. WARNING appears on the
first line and the prompted action item on the second line.
