Tally Box
The SKAARHOJ Tally Box supports a total of 8 tally lights and offers both program + preview tally. You connect it to your network and the lights to the 8 outputs. You can either connect them one by one or in a daisy chain configuration by a maximum of 3 in a row.
The order of the daisy chain is determined by which output you choose (numbers listed on the box). In the default-shipping configuration it will have the following assignment.
- Output 1 = Tally ID 1
- Output 2 = Tally ID 2
- Output 3 = Tally ID 3
- Etc.
It's possible to connect single lights and daisy chain simultaneous, e.g. Output 1 = Tally 1, Output 2 = Tally 2 and Output 3 = Tally 3+4 in daisy chain (since it's output 3-4-1)
If preferable you can alter the assignments of Output/Tally ID. E.g.
- Output 1 = Tally 5
- Output 2 = Tally 6
- Output 3 = Tally 7
- Output 4 = Tally 8
In a daisy chain configuration this would result in
- Output 1-2-3 = Tally 5-6-7
- Output 2-3-4 = Tally 6-7-8
- Output 3-4-1 = Tally 7-8-5
- Etc.
