Switching the Video
You can switch between the videos of the A/PGM bus and B/PST bus to specify the final output.
Setting the Operation Mode
There are two operation modes for switching the video: the “A/B
mode” and the “PGM/PST mode.”
Video on the A/PGM bus
Video on the B/PST bus
A/B mode
(factory settings)
When you operate the video fader, the video of the bus toward which
you slide the video fader becomes the final output.
The video of the other bus becomes the preview output video (the
video that is output next).
When the [CUT] or [AUTO] button is operated, the video on the
A/PGM bus and the video on the B/PST bus become the final output
in alternation.
PGM/PST mode
The video on the A/PGM bus is always the final output.
The video on the B/PST bus is preview output video (the video to be
output next).
Operating the video fader or the [CUT] or [AUTO] button makes the
final video output and the preview output video change places.
