Performing an Auto Select Key
An

are a Key (alpha) signal and a fill (video) signal. These signals originate from devices such as
character generators, still stores, DVEs, and graphics systems.
If you are setting up an
Auto Select Key
in the
Effects Keyers Group
, you can adjust the
Clip
and
Gain
as needed. In the
Downstream Keyer Group
you will have to toggle the
KEY MEM
button
Off
before you will be able to adjust the
Clip
and
Gain
as needed.

1. Select a background source on the
PGM
bus. This provides the background over which
the Key will appear.
2. Press
KEY2
in the
Transition Control Group
to preview the Key. This step will also
serve to assign the
Key
bus and the
Effects Keyers Group

Key 2
.
3. Select a Key source on the
Key 2
bus.
4. Press
AUTO SELECT
in the
Effects Keyers Group

Storing New Clip and Gain Settings

basis. The following procedure re-locks the clip and gain values, and stores the new settings in
memory.

There is no
undo
function. If you re-store clip and gain, you cannot
recall previous values unless you recall settings from memory. Refer to
the section “
