Work register
This is a temporary register used when editing keyframes.
When you recall an effect, it is read from the effect register
into the work register, and when you save, the contents of
the work register are written to the effect register.
Master timeline registers
There are 99 master timeline registers, numbered 1 to 99,
for each control panel. They store keyframe effect regions
and the register numbers saved in the regions.
Snapshot registers
These are registers for snapshots, and there are 99,
numbered 1 to 99 for each region.
Master snapshot registers
There are 99 master timeline registers, numbered 1 to 99,
for each control panel. They store snapshot regions and the
register numbers saved in the regions.

Overview of Keyframes

A keyframe represents an instantaneous state of an image,
which can be saved and recalled for reuse.

Effects

By arranging a number of keyframes on the time axis, and
interpolating between successive keyframes, you can
create a result in which there is a continuous change from
each keyframe to the next. This result is called an effect.
You can save the sequence of keyframes representing a
single effect in a register (1 p.
this register, you can replay the same effect.

Saving and Recalling Effects

To create a new effect, first recall an empty register, then
create the keyframes one at a time in this register. To run
an effect, it is also necessary to set the time and the path.
To edit an existing effect, recall the register holding the
effect, then make the changes.
When you have finished creating or editing the effect, save
it in the recalled register or another specified register.
Auto save function
When you recall an effect, the currently recalled effect is
automatically saved in a register. This is called the auto
save function. You can disable this function in a Setup
menu.

Effect Attributes

An individual effect may also have attached special
conditions relating to switcher operation when the effect is
recalled. These conditions are called "attributes" of the
effect, and can be added when the keyframe effect is saved
or recalled.
Types of attribute
Effect dissolve: The transition from the state before the
effect recall to the state at the effect start point is
carried out smoothly, by a dissolve. The dissolve
duration can be set in the Effect menu.
Temporary attributes
When a keyframe is recalled, independently of the
attributes held in the register, you temporarily enable or
disable attributes. These are called "temporary attributes."
These temporary attributes are set when the keyframe
effect is recalled.

Effect Editing

For editing operations such as to insert, delete, or modify a
keyframe, it is necessary to stop the effect at the
corresponding point on the time axis. This is termed an
"edit point."
You can edit either on a keyframe within the effect, or at
any point between keyframes.
Insert: Inserts the current image as a keyframe. Inserting
a keyframe in an existing effect may change the
duration of the effect (1 p.
Modify: Modifies a keyframe. You can modify a single
keyframe or a range of keyframes in the effect
together.
Delete: Deletes a keyframe. You can delete a single
keyframe or a range of keyframes in the effect
together.
Deleting keyframes from an effect reduces the
duration of the effect (1 p.
After deleting a keyframe, you can reinsert the
keyframe with a paste operation.
Copy: Copies a keyframe. You can copy a single keyframe
or a range of keyframes in the effect together.
Paste: Pastes the keyframe last copied or deleted
anywhere within the effect.
Pause: You can set a pause on a particular keyframe, so
that when the effect is run it pauses on this keyframe.
You can make this setting on any number of
keyframes. To restart the paused effect, repeat the
operation to run the effect.
KF Loop: Executes the effect the specified number of
times through the keyframes in the specified range.
