1.1.0 beta 8SHOWDATE04 OCT 2026CHANGES07BETA
When an RCP holds a camera, the control you pressed says which RCP has it and how to take over: press the same change again within 3 s and it goes, through every usual check. In SETUP PUSH one click on a held camera's line takes it over. LOCK EVERYTHING still gives every camera back to its RCP.
SAFETY 02
SETUP PUSH: INSTALL goes to every camera; LOAD on a camera an RCP holds waits for one click on its line
New in beta 8: beta 7 also loaded on cameras an RCP drives. INSTALL still goes to every camera, as before. LOAD on a held camera waits: its line reads INSTALL · LOAD: held by RCP-01, with a small TAKE OVER button at the end. One click unlocks that camera for this session (logged in Activity); LOAD then follows the usual checks. The line itself still only ticks.
The RCP wins until you take over
Nothing changes on a held camera until you press twice, click SET AGAIN or click TAKE OVER, and only for this session. LOCK EVERYTHING puts every camera you took over back on its RCP. Panasonic controls are not held by an RCP and send as before.
IMPROVED 02
Take over from the control you pressed
On a camera an RCP holds, the first change shows RCP-01 HAS IT · AGAIN TO TAKE OVER on that control (the RCP's own name) and sends nothing. Press the same change again within 3 s: Scanny unlocks that camera for this session, logs it in Activity, and the change goes through every usual check (on-air ask, link, LOCKED, typed name). A held key's auto-repeat never counts as the second press. The orange chip on the camera page still unlocks and RE-HOLDs.
Typed values: SET AGAIN takes over
EI Other…, a fader value, an RGB trim or TC on a held camera: the first Set sends nothing and the box stays open with your value and RCP-01 has it — SET AGAIN takes over. One more click unlocks that camera for this session (logged) and sends. No need to retype inside 3 s.
FIXED 03
No more bare NOT SENT for an RCP hold
A change the RCP hold stops reads RCP HAS IT on the row, and the line says which RCP has which camera and how to take over. Before, the row read NOT SENT and the camera had to be unlocked from the chip at the top of the page.
LOCKED and other blocks come before a take-over
On a LOCKED page (or with no link, busy, in playback), a menu pick, preset, typed value, AWB or RESET ALL reads the real reason. It never takes a camera off its RCP while nothing can be sent.
FR7 on air: take over first, then one ask
On an on-air FR7 an RCP holds, the take-over now comes before the on-air ask, as on ALEXA. Press, press again within 3 s, then confirm once. Before, the ask came first and a second ask followed the take-over.
