Need to go in a different direction. I've created a custom dashboard with two buttons. I want these buttons to trigger, basically a click or link, to an existing panel to open it. If I view the established panel, it gives me multiple ways to ID it. I just can't remember any of the logic to make that ...

Thank you for the video. That did help a lot. I am assuming by your video that I don't have the ability to hide the All Connections from the end user and only keep the folder? This will definitely work but just trying to make this as simple for production to not go where they shouldn't. Thanks ...

I may have put this in the wrong community. I am now a part of the Enterprise community which I believe deals with Dashboard. I do not see where I can move the post so if needed, can a admin move me over. Thanks ------------------------------ Robert Kinnan Broadcast Engineer Spectrum Charter News ...

Hello. I have recently created two different multibus panels in dashboard. This will allow production to embed any mic to any camera in our location. Unfortunately, these panels live in the BCS section in the basic tree view. Currently I could launch both of these panels and close the basic tree view. ...

Have an interesting issue. Currently using Ultrix frame with TDx3 in Acuity mode. This morning, when the TD tried to send video or graphics to a monitor wall in the studio, it would not show up. This was being done via an Aux. If they sent a still, it worked. Graphics and video are external sources. ...

After speaking with a colleague, we were able to build an ISO audio router using Dashboard. Maybe this will help someone else. In Dashboard, in our database we added a Multibus panel. We did this on our Control room An Ultrix frame since all of our cameras were already there. In our current destination ...

We run audio mainly through Dante using an SSL. Looking to see if I can use the Ultrix essentially as custom ...

Hello. Thank you. I was able to FTP to the current frame. 2 questions now: 1. Do we need to keep a USB drive on the TDx3 for storing stills when dealing with Acuity and or Ultrix systems? 2.

With what you said, I created a blank panel using xml (not sure if correct). Then I put my opengear card side by side with the new blank panel. I put both in edit mode and dragged the option I needed to the new panel. This worked. I had said before that what I was dealing with was an A/B switch but ...
