“ Stacking ” is a configuration method that gives you access to six mixers, with the ability to
display up to 12 PIPs on screen simultaneously. Processors can be stacked in single or
wide screen configurations as desired. Stacking is only available with the Controller LC.
To make 12 PIPs available, Video Processors are combined in pairs. The first Processor’s
Program and Preview outputs are connected to the second Processor’s Background (
BG )
A and B inputs. In this manner, two “Three M/E” systems are stacked to create a six M/E
Processor. Using the six PIPs from each Processor, 12 PIPs are available.

The figure below illustrates a block diagram of a single screen “stack” configuration. Aux
destinations are not shown. Use this diagram for reference in the following procedure.
