HOME
The PREV TRANS button enables the preview transition mode allowing the operator to
verify a transition by performing it on the preview output using the fader bar. Once you
press this button on, you can preview your transition as many times as you like allowing
you to make changes and corrections as needed. You can even preview stinger
transitions! Once adjusted, press the button off and you are ready to send your
transition on air.

Transition Control and Upstream Keyers
The BKGD, KEY 1, KEY 2, KEY 3, KEY 4 buttons are used to select the elements which
will transition on air or off air with the next transition. Any combination of background
and keys can be selected by pressing multiple buttons simultaneously. Double-
pressing the BKGD button selects all of the next transition upstream keyers that are
currently on air and copies them to the Next Transition buttons.
Pressing any of the next transition buttons will clear selection of all others. When
selecting the elements of the next transition, the switcher operator should look at the
preview output because it provides an accurate representation of what the program
output will look like after the transition is completed. When only the BKGD button is
selected, a transition from the current source on the program bus to the source
selected on the preview bus will occur.
ON AIR
The ON AIR indicator buttons indicate which of the upstream keys are currently on air
and can also be used to immediately cut a key on or off air.

Downstream Keyers

DSK TIE

The DSK TIE button will enable the DSK on the preview output, along with the next
transition effects, and tie it to the main transition control so that the DSK can be taken
to air with the next transition.
Because the tied downstream keyer is now tied to the main transition, the transition will
happen at the rate specified in the transition rate display of the transition control block.
When the DSK is tied, the signal routing to the clean feed 1 is unaffected.

DSK CUT

The DSK CUT button is used to cut the DSK on or off air and indicates whether the DSK
is currently on or off air. The button is illuminated if the DSK is currently on air.

DSK AUTO

The DSK AUTO button will mix the DSK on or off air at the rate specified in the DSK
rate window.
