Preset Conferences

Dynam-EC enables you to create preset conferences that you can copy into live conferences as required.

Assigning preset conferences to existing conferences enables you to manage multiple changes to conferences in a single assignment operation. For example, by assigning a preset conference to an existing news conference you might instantly change the communication lines to those from a different OB truck, or swap the conference to a different studio key group (erasing existing four-wire members).

Preset conferences are only created within Dynam-EC are not sent to the matrix. Only when they are applied to existing conferences are changes sent to the matrix.

To create a preset conference:

  1. Go to Configure Canvas > Other tab in the palette.

    Drag and drop the preset conference icon onto the canvas.

    Note: For more information about Configure Canvas mode and the Other tab in the palette, see Configure Canvas Mode.

To give the preset conference a name, using an alias label:

  1. Go to Alias.

Type the name of the label (up to 10 characters) into the blank label area.

  1. Drag the alias label to the preset conference.

Creating and assigning an alias label to a preset conference is the same as for normal, EHX conferences.

For more information about Alias mode, see Alias Mode.

To assign items (such as four-wires, monitors, idents and key groups) to a preset conference:

  1. Go to Assignment.

  2. Drag and drop available items from the palette onto the preset conference (as you would with any other conference).

To apply the preset conference to an existing conference:

  1. Go to Assignment.

  2. Drag and drop the preset conference onto the target conference.

The contents of the preset conference are added to the target conference. The name of the target conference changes to that of the preset conference.
