M-Audio Biport 2x4s [34/48] File quit

File|Save As Default

Opening the File menu and clicking “Save as Default” will take the cur-

rent file that is open and its settings and make it the current default set-

tings file. Opening the BiPort Remote Control in the future will bring up

this new default, still using the name “BiPort Preferences.” Quitting the

application will then ask you if you want to save the changes under a

new name. Choosing to do so will save the settings to another file name.

Choosing “Don’t Save” will still bring up those changed settings as the

default “BiPort Preferences.”

File|Quit

Choosing File|Quit will exit the application.

The Edit Menu

Cut, Copy, and Paste are accessible from the Edit Menu. These can be

used for offset values or user bit values and will remain in the clipboard

while moving from file to file within the application.

The Hardware Menu

Clicking on “Current Status” will display the OMS version that is in use,

plus the BiPort’s firmware revision number. Clicking “SMPTE Test” will

display the SMPTE time seen at the input as well as the frame rate that is

being detected. This is useful when reading and/or regenerating

SMPTE.

The Select Menu

This menu allows the user to select between the Remote Control and the

Diagnostic test. Running the application opens up the Remote Control,

so clicking on “Diagnostic” from the Select menu will then open the

Diagnostic test. Clicking one or the other from the Select menu will

bring that window to the forefront. See section “Running the

Diagnostics.”

Help

The Help menu will allow you to either show or hide “Balloon” help.

One can also select “About Balloon Help” for information about

Balloons.
