To assign a source to a Keyer:
1.
Press the desired Key Selection Button in the Destinations Row, either
[Key 1
Select]
,
[Key 2 Select],
[Key 3 Select], [Key 4 Select], [Key 5 Select]
or
[Key 6 Select]
.
The button pressed will illuminate orange (or red if the key is on ME2 program),
and one button in the Sources Row will also illuminate. This lit button in the
source row will indicate which source is currently assigned to the selected key.
For example, in the illustration shown below, the CG device is fed into Key 1.
(You can see the name of the source by looking at the device icon on the top of
the PixButtons in the display row).
The lit source button will illuminate red if this key is on program. This will warn
you that if you now change to a different source you will be impacting the on-air
content. The lit source button will illuminate orange if this key is not on air. If a
shifted source (17-32) is currently in the key, it will blink on the Control Panel,
and illuminate a small red light above the button on the SoftPanel.
4.4.2 Assigning a Source to Key 1-6
Each of the six keys may hold a variety of sources, including a cg, logo, still, a DVE
box (picture-in-picture) for a camera, etc. Each source is assigned to Key 1-6 by
using the Key Selection buttons and Source Row buttons.
2.
Press the desired
[Source Row]
button, for the source you wish to feed into the
keyer. The button pressed will illuminate orange (or red if the key is on ME 2
program), and the source row button that had been illuminated before will go out.
Only one button in the source row may be illuminated at a time. The new source,
and its current contents, will also appear in the appropriate [Direct Key] PixButton
in the middle of the panel in ME 2.
