Description/Objective
The Biamp Canvas User Interface software will allow a customer access to almost any parameters in the Tesira configuration. One use case that IVS will often be creating for a customer is a speaker selector - the ability to send audio from a push-to-talk mic to different speakers in a moment's notice.
In this section, we will build the corresponding Canvas UI for the Speaker Selector Tesira config. There is one camera, one sim room mic, one control room mic, one overhead speaker, one PSP in-wall patient speaker, and one control room PSP in-wall speaker. The customer would like to choose to send audio to the overhead speaker or the patient speaker, or mute the push-to-talk audio altogether.
Physical Wiring
Physical wiring and the line diagram is available in the Tesira config section for this example, so this should already be complete.
The only other thing to keep in mind is: The computers with the Biamp UI will need to be able to reach the Tesira on the network. This should not typically be an IVS task, and should be up to the customer.
Components
Open the Speaker Selector Tesira configuration.
Tesira
Copy the Standard Mixer and paste it into a blank Canvas file.
Canvas Block
A Standard Mixer as it first appears in Canvas. Ungroup the Buttons. Leave only the output channel names and mute buttons, and the large 'Speaker Selector' border. Arrange the buttons to create the best user experience for the customer.
There are also many options for appearance and color available.
Other Elements
Appearance
An appropriate layout might look something like this:
- LED Controls, assigned to the output mute channels of the standard mixer.
- Preset Buttons, which control the output channels of the standard mixer.
- A simple image component in Canvas, for branding and appearance purposes. This image will have to be stored on the local computer somewhere, then uploaded into this block component.
- Exit button. Once the UI config is complete, it should be set up to auto launch with a desktop icon (instructions in another section). The customer will not (or should not) have access to any menu, so an Exit button will be necessary (instructions in another section).
