7.9 diamond VX - Timer Operation
The standard configuration supports two independent timers: Timer 1 and Timer 2. Both timers can be displayed on the
GUI's 'Channel Strip
' page
by assigning one of the master slots to
Timers
(as described earlier).
Each timer has two modes of operation: count-up or count-down, and can be triggered either automatically or manually.
When a timer is triggered automatically, the operation is defined by the
Timer x Auto Mode
option (in the 'Settings
→
Timer' dialog box). There are two possibilities:
Mic Only
= the timer
counts only
when a Mic source fader is open (applies to all Mic sources).
All Faders
= the timer counts when any fader is open (applies to all faders).
The operation is handled from the GUI's touch-screen (for both timers). If the surface is fitted with a Central module, then
Timer 1 can also be operated from the MF keys (as shown below).
Setting the Timer Mode
The count-up or count-down mode is selected from the GUI using the arrows above each timer:
Touch the up arrow (top right) to choose count-up mode.
Touch the down arrow (top left) to choose count-down mode.
The color of the arrow and timer label indicate the mode: blue = count-up; red = count-down.
