DME Wipes
This section describes the basic operations and settings for DME wipes.
Overview
By connecting one or more DME-7000 or other Digital Multi Effects units to
the DVS-7250 switcher system, it is possible to carry out wipe transitions
using the DME effects. This function is called "DME Wipe" (DME
LINK™), and a pattern used for the function is called a "DME wipe pattern."
Using the DME units
To use the DME wipe function, one or two DME units must be connected to
the switcher. If three or more DME units are connected to the switcher, it is
first necessary in a setup menu to select which DME unit will be used on
which one of the M/E banks and DSK block (see page 14-40).
Signal path for a DME wipe
For a DME wipe on an M/E bank or the DSK block, the output buses for the
signals to the DME use the auxiliary buses which you specify in a setup
menu (see page 14-40). The output signals from the DME (DMEV, DMEK)
are input to the switcher through cross-point button columns specified in the
same setup menu.
DME wipe patterns
The DME wipe patterns used in the DVS-7250 system can be divided into
the following groups.
For details of the patterns in each group and impressions of the wipes, see
the Appendix "DME Wipe Patterns" (page A-8).
The following descriptions apply when the wipe direction is "Normal" (i.e.
forward).
