2. Pattern Selection Section
The Pattern Selection Section is an array of 40 buttons that each represent an
individual wipe pattern. There are no optional patterns. To select a wipe, press the
desired button. Once selected, the pattern can be modified and used in the assigned
MLE. The section displays 16 “classic” wipes, eight rotary wipes, eight matrix wipes,
and eight user wipes (seven on the Synergy 2). When you select a matrix wipe, the
Matrix Menu is displayed, allowing you to customize the selected matrix wipe as
required. Refer to the “ Adjusting Matrix Wipes ” section for instructions.
Each of the “user” wipe buttons is essentially a memory register for a hidden wipe
pattern that is chosen from the User Wipe Menu . Once selected, the wipe is stored on
one of the User Wipe buttons for instant access — just like a normal wipe. Refer to the
“
User Wipes ” section for complete instructions.
