Cascade Mode Operations
Cascade mode offers two-layer keying (midground and foreground). For
example, both a logo and a caption may be simultaneously, but independently
inserted over a background signal. Image editing and image saving are not
available in Cascade mode.
To control the foreground layer, press the "FG KEYER" button. To control
the midground layer, press the "MG KEYER" button.
Transmission Controls
The buttons grouped in the bottom, right-hand corner of the controller are
used to change the program output and to take images "on air" and "off air".
The use of these controls does not involve prompts or displays on the
controller LCD.
Program Fade to Black
Pressing the "Fade to Black" button causes the appropriate keying layer
output on-air to fade to full-screen black. When the output is already faded to
black, selection causes the same layer output on-air to fade from a full-screen
black image to the previously displayed image. The replacement rate is
determined by the "Rate" setting.
Turning the foreground "fade to black" (FTB) to "ON" will force the
programme output of the Imagestore to black. With the midground FTB
"ON", any foreground image that is currently "on-air" will still be seen over
the black output of the midground keyer.
Foreground/Midground Images "On Air"
To take either a midground or foreground image "on air", first press the
appropriate FG or MG button which will illuminate accordingly. If the TAKE
button is illuminated the image for that layer is already on air and vice versa.
Pressing the TAKE button will either take the image on-air (button
illuminated) or off air (button extinguished).
