Pattern Limits

When a wipe or DME wipe pattern is selected for the
transition, you can specify the range of movement of the
wipe pattern through the course of the transition, for each
bank.
When the pattern limit function is enabled, carrying out a
transition results in the following effect for example
settings.
• When the limit value is set to 50%, the effect at the end
of the transition is the same as when the fader lever is at
the center position in the normal case (with the pattern
limit function disabled); the wipe pattern does not
complete.
• When the limit value is set to 0%, the wipe effect is
completely disabled, and carrying out the transition
produces no change in the image.
• 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 each 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 (1 p. 57).
• In multi program mode, a pattern limit can be used only
when the background transition type is a wipe or DME
wipe. If a key is selected for the next transition, the
pattern limit setting is reflected in the wipe or DME wipe
selected by the background transition type.
