Preparations

Allocating the frame memory outputs (FM1
to FM8) to cross-point buttons
To output a frame memory image to a monitor, for
example, the output signal from the frame memory (FM1
to FM8) must be allocated to a cross-point button. Carry
out this allocation in the Setup menu.
Notes
When the signal format is 1080P, only the four options of
FM1 to FM4 can be used.

following procedures.
• In the menu control block, select the top menu selection
button [FRAME MEM].
• Press the cross-point button to which the frame memory
output is allocated twice in rapid succession.
