Keyboard Controls – Video Switching

Main Source and Sub Source Rows

The Main Source Row of buttons is the active channel, this is the Live output. The active channel will appear as the
Program Output (PGM). You can switch or CUT from one source to another directly on the Main Source Row. You
will see the PGM Output change as you press different keys along this row of buttons.
The Sub Source Row is the Cued channel; this channel will appear in the PST or Preview window. The Sub Source
selection determines which input will be transitioned to when using any of the transition controls.
N.B. The keys on the Main and Sub Source Rails will be inactive while the T-Bar is active. Only when the T-
Bar is fully up or fully down will the keys respond.
BG
Background – shows the background colour selected for use on the Main and Sub Source Rails.

PIP

Picture In Picture – Can be set up manually set to any chosen position within the video area. See page 19.
FZ
Freeze – The current PST or PGM image displayed is frozen until toggled off.

FTB

Fade To Black – This is on the Main Source Rail only. Pressing FTB will fade the PGM output to black. To fade
back to video you need to press the FTB button again.

PVW

Preview – This is on the Sub Source Rail only. When you press the PVW Key you will see the active transition or
effect previewed in the PST window of the Multi-Image display.

CUT

This performs a simple immediate switch from the current main source to the selected sub
source. The selected transition wipe or dissolve is not used.

TAKE

This performs an automated switch from the current main source to the selected sub
source. The selected transition wipe or dissolve will also be used. The timing of the
transition is set by the chosen Speed/Level button.

T-Bar

This performs a manually controlled switch from the current main source to the selected sub
source. The selected transition wipe or dissolve will also be used. When the T-Bar has
travelled as far as it can go the transition between sources is complete. T-Bar will be
indicated in the status display if the T-Bar is in use.
