CHANGING THE OPERATING MODE
As previously explained, the C2-7000 series has two independent video
processors and three operating modes: Switcher Mode, Independent Mode
and Dual Picture in Picture (Dual PIP) Mode.
Within these three modes there are over 20 additional functions that can be
accessed either within a single channel or layered across both channels.
These individual functions will be explained later in the manual but for now, it
would be well to learn the basics of the three modes. The discussions that
follow are all referenced to the C2-7000 series’ default condition upon initial
application of power or after a Factory Reset has been performed.
8.1
Operating the Unit as a Video Switcher
When the C2-7000 series is initially turned on the first time (and after any
Factory Reset), it will be in the Switcher mode. If a mode change is made to
either Independent mode or Dual pip mode, and the power is not totally
removed from the unit by unplugging it from the AC supply, the last selected
mode will be retained even if the unit is switched off using the power switch.
In the following discussion, the assumption is made that the unit is being
turned on for the first time and is therefore in the Factory Default condition.
Connect the DVI-I #1 Output to either a DVI-I compliant monitor or to a RGB
Analog Component monitor using appropriate adapters if necessary. Connect
a second monitor to the DVI-I #2 Output. These will become your Program
and Preview monitors respectively.
By changing the Output Resolution to NTSC/PAL and type to CV/YC, you can
also connect monitors to the Composite Video or YC Video Outputs (instead
of RGB), however the quality of the signal will not be as good as the signal
present at the respective DVI-I / RGB outputs.)
The LCD screen will display the model number when you initially apply power
to the unit or perform a reset, you should make note of this number in case
you require technical assistance.
If not in the Switcher mode, press the Rotary Encoder or Multi-directional
Switch (depending on your front panel version) and the brackets portion of the
display will begin to flash. Adjust the Mode and then press again to stop the
brackets flashing (indicating that you’re no longer adjusting that feature).
