Performing Manual Transitions
Use the following procedure to perform a manual transition:
1. Ensure that your PGM bus, PST bus, and keys are set up as desired.
2. In the Next Transition Section , select
BKGD
,
KEY1
, or
KEY2
, or any combination
thereof as the next transition.
3. In the Transition Type Section , select the desired transition type — dissolve, wipe , or
DVE effect.
4. Move the Fader from its current limit to the opposite limit. The speed at which you
move the Fader determines the manual transition rate.
• Remember that during a transition, the Transition Progress Bar LED segments
illuminate as the Fader travels, with the unlit portion signifying the direction the
Fader must be moved in order to complete the transition.
This completes the procedure for performing a manual transition.
Performing Cuts
A “background cut” is an instant switch between the PGM and PST buses.You can also perform a
background cut simply by switching inputs on the PGM bus itself. This type of cut does not allow you
to preview. Although we have used BKGD transitions between the PGM and PST buses as examples
in the following procedure, remember that all types of transitions operate in the same manner,
regardless of the
Next Transition buttons selected.
Use the following procedure to perform a cut:
1. Select an input on the PGM bus.
2. Select a different input on the PST bus.
3. In the Next Transition Section , select BKGD as the next transition. The figure below
illustrates a sample setup and the associated monitor outputs — before the cut.
Sample Setup – Before a Cut
Note When the fader is off a limit, all buttons in the Transition Control
group are disabled.
Note
If you double press a crosspoint button assigned to a Global-Store
channel, the
Global-Store Menu for that particular channel is
displayed. You can use the menu to select an image and take it to air.
