Using Fade To Black - Sony DFS-900M Operating Instructions Manual

Using Fade to Black

You can use the switcher's internally generated black
signals in transitions. A transition in which the background
is replaced by a black signal is called "fade to black".
1
Set the transition rate for fade to black.
For information about how to set transition rates, see
"Setting Transition Rates" (page 116).
2
Press the FTB button in the transition block (when
using the BKDF-901) or in the DSK/fade to black
control block (when using the BKDF-902).
The video being output to program output fades out
according to the specified transition rate, and is
replaced by a black screen.
If you press the FTB button once more after the fade to
black finishes, the switcher executes a transition back
to the original video.
If you press the FTB button during a fade to black, the
original video is restored instantly.
