CMX
The CMX function exports the EDL data, in CMX format, to a PC. This function is used most often to
view the entire EDL in a single listing.
Before using the CMX function, ensure that—
• if there are MX1 Events in the EDL, the GPI-M configuration parameter is set to MX-1; or if
there are MIXER Events, the GPI-M configuration parameter is set to MIXER
• if there are INS or SPLT events in the EDL, the INS and SPLT parameters for VCRR are set to 1.
If these settings are not correct, an error message will display during the export, or the event will be
excluded from the CMX report.
To do a CMX Export, complete the following steps.
