Basic Operations
Switching in the A/B Mode
1. Select the A-Bus and B-Bus video.
Select the channels for A-Bus and B-Bus. Selecting a channel makes the button indicator light up red or green.

2. Select a transition effect.
Use the [WIPE PATTERN] buttons to select the transition effect you want to apply.
3. Move the video fader.
Move the video fader. Moving the fader toward the rear displays the A-Bus video, and moving it back toward the front displays the
B-Bus video.
* If you select [CUT] in step 2, the A-Bus and B-Bus video are switched at the center position.
* If you select the same channel for A-Bus and B-Bus, the video is not switched even if you move the video fader.
When the video fader has not been moved all the way and the channel for the opposite bus is switched, the video output to the preview monitor
might be corrupt. When changing the input, first make sure that the video fader has been moved all the way to the end of the stroke.
About the Indicator Color
Pressing an input-selector button makes the indicator light up either red or green. The color varies according to the position of the
video fader. At the end of the stoke (during 100% output) the indicator lights up red, and at the opposite end of the stroke (during
standby = no output at all) it lights up green. When the control is not completed at one of these ends, both light up red.
