About Snapshots
When you record a snapshot, aspects of the Ion user-interface, based on user-preference, are
stored so that you can recall them in the future. This allows you to bring the console back to a
desired state quickly.
Snapshots can be used on Ion RPUs or Net3 RVIs to change what is currently displayed on the
external monitors and how that information is displayed.
Snapshots contents are global. They can be stored and recalled on any control interface, other than
Net3 RFRs. When recorded, they store the relevant settings of the device initiating the record.
When recalled, they recall only the controls that are appropriate on the device the snapshot is
recalled.
Control areas that may be stored in a snapshot are:
• Direct Selects - records the configuration, mapping, and current page of any direct
selects in use.
• Encoders - records the current page of the encoders.
• Faders - captures the current state of all the faders including: current page, current
fader configuration, position of all submasters and playbacks, any fader attributes, and
pending cues.
• Monitors - records the current display and configuration of the external monitors.
• Filters - records the current setting of the record filters.
When snapshots are recorded, you can view them in the snapshot list. To view the list, navigate to
Browser>Record Target Lists>Snapshots.
Recording Snapshots
To store the current state of the console, record a snapshot.
For Example:
• [Record] {Snapshots} [1]
The CIA will display buttons representing the following areas of console:
•Monitors
• Faders
• Encoders
• Direct Selects
• Filters
By default, all of these elements are selected for storing. If you wish to store only some of
these elements, select those desired by touching the button in the CIA. Selected elements
will be highlighted in gray.
• {Monitors} {Encoders} {Direct Selects} [Enter]
You can label snapshots or attach notes as desired.
• {Snapshots} [1] [Label/Note] [text] [Enter]
Note:
Snapshots that store the faders do not include the active cue in a fader. They only
include pending cues and fader attributes.
