Programming XX079-00-01 Rev 303 Video Switchers
Each submenu and programming screen has instructions that follow. Note the right arrow (
!
) in front of the
first line of the menu. The right arrow is the selection cursor. To move it through the menu selections, use the
up (
↑
) or (
↓
) arrows. If the selection cursor is on the last menu line, pressing the down arrow puts the cursor
on the top menu line. To exit a menu, select line A, which is always the exit line, or press BACK or RUBOUT.
Programming the System
The switchers have a variety of programming features.
Camera Setup
Bring the arrow cursor down to B, Camera Setup, and press the right arrow key to display the Camera Setup
menu.
Camera Setup

B. Camera Number: 01
C. Camera Title
Bring the cursor to line B, Camera Number. Press the right or left arrow keys to select the camera number to
be programmed. As the camera numbers are changed, the video displayed on the monitor changes according
to the camera input selected.
Note: Any camera input can be accessed with this menu, whether or not a camera is actually connected to
the input.
Writing the Camera Title
Each camera can be given its own title of up to 24 characters. The character set includes the alphabet,
numerals from 0 to 9, common punctuation marks, various symbols, and foreign language characters. This
programming screen allows you to write the title for the camera; an additional programming screen (Monitor
Setup) allows background, position, and other parameters to be specified.
To program a camera title, select Camera Title from the Camera Setup menu to display this programming
screen (Note: your screen might say Shifted instead of Shift):
