2.2.3 Logo and Clock
The HS-2850 has the ability to store six static logos and one
dynamic logo. The logo files are transferred to the HS-2850
from a Windows PC using the Ethernet connection and the
supplied
SEConfig software
. See
using this software.
LOGO 1
The
LOGO 1
and
LOGO 2
buttons are used to display pre-
selected logos on the HS-2850 Preset and Program outputs.
When the button is active the selected logo is shown. These logos are selected from the
switcher’s memory and positioned using a menu option see the section on
LOGO 2 or CLOCK
The user cannot display
LOGO 2
and
CLOCK
at the same time. Instead use
LOGO 1
and
CLOCK
together or use
LOGO 1
and
LOGO 2
together.
The clock time can be synchronized with a computer or set manually using a menu option.
The colour and font used in the clock digits can be changed using the supplied
SEConfig
software
for more details on using this software or see
onwards for the Clock menu options.
TIMER
In some mixing or switching applications it is useful to have a countdown timer. It could be
that the input is a pre-recorded video clip and you need to know when to be ready to switch
away from it.
This countdown timer function is only seen in the status area of the HDMI multi-view output
to the right of the normal Clock function. The timer can be selected for one input channel,
several channels or all channels.
When the
TIMER
button is active and the user switches to a selected input channel, the
countdown starts on the HDMI multi-view.
The value of the countdown, in minutes and seconds (
MM:SS
), is set by a menu option.
Whilst the countdown is in progress,
T-Bar
operation is ignored.
When the countdown reaches zero, the user can then switch or transition to another input
channel. If the countdown reaches zero the switcher will not automatically change to the
selected Preset source.
