Executing a Transition
There are two modes of executing a transition: an auto
transition by button operation or a manual transition using
the fader lever.
It is also possible to combine both methods, taking control
with the fader lever of an auto transition which has partly
completed, or complete a transition started with the fader
lever as an auto transition.
By combining common transitions with independent key
transitions, different transition types can be applied to the
background and keys, for example allowing a key wipe
combined with a background dissolve.
When the audio mixer is linked in the Setup menu, you can
carry out an auto transition, and also switch the sound with
the audio mixer (1 p.

Transition Indicator Function
In each of the switcher banks, to the left of the fader lever
is a transition indicator. This indicator shows the state of
the transition, whether auto or manual.
A bar appears in the transition
indicator
For example, in the previous illustration, it can be seen that
the transition is more than half completed.
When the transition is completed, the indicator turns off.
Setting the Transition Rate
There are two ways of setting the transition rate: using the
Flexi Pad to enter a numeric value, or using the Misc menu
to access the Transition menu for each switcher bank.
You can also display the transition rate, independent key
transition rate, and fade-to-black transition rate for each
bank, and change the settings
Notes
When a clip transition is selected as the transition type, it
is not possible to set the transition rate.
Frame input mode and timecode input
mode
For numeric input of the transition rate value, there are two
modes: frame input mode and timecode input mode. You
select one of these modes using the Flexi Pad.
Frame input mode: The entered value is a number of
frames.
Example: Entering 123 constitutes an entry of 123
frames
Timecode input mode: The entered value is a timecode
value.
Example: Entering 123 constitutes an entry of 1
second 23 frames.
