Checking Keys
Once your inputs have been checked, you should now check each auto-key association that you have
made. This procedure allows you to verify that each alpha-fill combination is working properly and
generating a proper linear key.
Use the following procedure to check your keys:
1. On the PGM bus, select a background source (such as a camera or VTR).
2. In the Transition Control group, press KEY1 .
3. In the Effects Keyers group, press AUTO SELECT .
4. On the Key Bus , select a crosspoint that has previously been defined as the fill for a
key signal.
5. After adjusting the Clip and Gain , if required, visually check the key’s appearance on
the Preview monitor:
• The assigned alpha signal should be properly cutting the hole in the background.
• The selected fill signal should be properly filling the hole.
• The edges of the key should be clean.
• If the key does not appear visually correct, the alpha and fill sources may be
incorrectly paired or improperly assigned. Please check the associations in the
AutoKey section of the Inputs Menu .
6. If the key alpha and fill sources are correct, but the key still does not appear correct
visually , reassign the shaped designation and recheck the key’s visual appearance.
This completes the procedure to check your keys.
