Sony MVS-8000X System User Manual page 138

• When the limit value is set to the maximum 100%, the image changes in
exactly the same way as when the pattern limit function is off, but when the
transition is completed, the cross-point selections on the background A and
B buses do not interchange.
There are two ways of setting a pattern limit: either by operating the fader lever
to save the fader position, or by using the Wipe menu or DME Wipe menu to
access the Edge/Direction menu for the M/E or PGM/PST bank.
Notes
• A pattern limit only applies when a wipe or DME wipe is selected as the
transition type.
• A pattern limit cannot be applied to an independent key transition (see page
148).
