• The specific target of Joystick operations at any moment is determined by a set of Joystick delegate
buttons, outlined in red in Figure 286, and by source selection (whether manual selection using PTZ
SEL, or by enabling FOLLOW PREV – see notes in Section 23.1.6).
• The operation performed on the delegated target is determined by a set of Control Mode buttons at
right, outlined in green in Figure 286.
DELEGATES
Let’s consider the delegates first. Nine of the buttons in this group rely on the current M/E Delegate selection
(see the heading M/E DELEGATE in Section 23.1.4 to designate which M/E is addressed. These are:
• A-D – When the delegated M/E is configured to use a LiveSet effect, selecting a button in this group
assigns the joystick to control the corresponding primary video layer of that M/E.
• KEY 1-4 – Selecting a button in this group assigns the joystick to control the corresponding KEY layer
of the delegated M/E.
• LIVESET – You might think of this button can as “BACKGROUND” in current software versions, since
it not only assigns the joystick to LiveSet zoom and pan control, but also provides similar functionality
for any source type when supported in the software feature set.
DSKs, of course, are unique to TriCaster’s main Switcher. This buttons in this group are not dependent on
any other delegate.
• DSK 1-4 – Selecting a button in this group assigns the joystick to control the corresponding DSK layer
of the main Switcher.
• SHTL – Press this button with SHIFT to assign the joystick to control the Media Player camera that is
currently delegated. To shuttle a Media Player, move the joystick horizontally (as viewed from above).
CONTROL MODE
Let’s turn now to buttons that govern the Joystick operating mode.
Note: Some control modes are invalid for certain joystick delegates. For example, the Rotate and Crop
functions aren’t supported by PTZ cameras or LiveSets. Invalid control mode selections are ignored.
