AUX output
A signal output from an AUX
(auxiliary) connector to an external

Background transition
A transition that switches away from
the background video of the current
program output to other video.
Color matte
An internally generated color signal.
You can adjust the hue (Hue),
saturation (Sat), and luminance
(Lum) of color mattes.
DME (digital multi effects)
A special effect (3D, lighting, etc.)
created with digital video processing.
DME wipe
A wipe that uses a DME effect to
switch between video signals.
Downstream key (DSK)
A function which allows video to be
composed by taking video to which
an effect has already been applied
and adding further images and text. It
is called downstream key because
this processing is done as the last
stage in the flow of video processing.
Event
A set of control panel settings
registered as data. You can register
video selections and effect settings as
events, and then automatically
restore the same state by recalling the
event.
Fade to black

a black screen.
Key
An effect in which part of the video is
cut out and replaced by an image,
text, or other content.
Key transition
A transition in which a key is inserted
into or deleted from the program
video.
Mix
A type of transition effect. Another
video signal is mixed into the current
video signal, gradually replacing it.
Preset bus
A bus for the video signal that will
become the program video after a
background transition. This video is
selected and output before execution
of the transition.
Preview output
Output that allows you to check the
program video that will appear after a
transition, before actual execution of
the transition.
Program bus
A bus for the output of program
output signals.
Program output
The final video signal output from
this system after applying effects.
The video seen by viewers.
Sequence
A set of control panel settings stored
as motion video. The settings for a
single instant are stored as a single
frame of the video. The sequence is
played by recalling the frames in
turn, with the video changing
smoothly between the current frame
and the next frame.
Still image memory
Internal memory for storing image
data as files.
Transition
Switching from one video signal to a
different video signal over a certain
time interval. Transitions can be used
to compose or erasing graphics or
text using functions such as
downstream keys or Picture-in-
Picture.
Wipe
A type of transition effect. A new
video signal replaces the current
video signal by gradually wiping it
away.
