9-1. Preset Pattern Groups
The WIPE preset patterns (No. 0-202) can be changed or modified from their original patterns.
Basically the preset patterns are categorized into five different groups. The available items in the
WIPE modify menu are also different according to the type of groups

To modify a pattern, select a WIPE pattern, open the WIPE menu and change desired
parameters to modify the pattern. This section explains how to modify patterns using examples
for the KEY transition and background transition.
See section 9-6. "WIPE Menu" for details about modification settings.
9-2. Modified Patterns
Press the PATTERN button in the Transition block to display the [WIPE PATTERN] menu. The
currently selected patterns are displayed in the menu. When a pattern is modified, the letter "M'
is added in front of the pattern number as shown in the menu below. When the CG WIPE feature
is enabled (ENABLE in the [WIPE MODIFY-CG WIPE] menu is set to ON.), the letter "C' is
added in front of the pattern number.
WIPE :BKGD :KEY1 :KEY2 :1/1
PAT M1 :

M20
:00 :
The same pattern can be individually modified for the background, KEY1 and KEY2. However,
when you change the pattern to another one of the same type (WIPE or DVE) after modifying the
pattern, the modified pattern data will be lost. To preserve and recall a modified pattern easily,
register it to the Direct Pattern memory. (See section 8-8-2. "Direct Pattern Function.")
Returning Pattern to Normal Settings
When you change a pattern to another one of the same type after the pattern modification in
some cases, some modification data set for the specified pattern may be preserved and applied
to the newly selected pattern. In these cases, if you wish the modified pattern to return to the
default settings, reset the pattern. (See section 9-5. "How to Reset WIPE Menu.")
Baking Up Modified Data
The modified pattern data is lost when powering off the switcher. It is recommended that
important modified data be backed up to the event memory or a USB flash memory stick. For
details about backup procedures, refer to section 16 "Event Memory" and section 19. "File
Operations." The Direct Pattern data is included in the switcher's backup data (ALL data).
