A word about layers
Adding to the general description above about layers, mores specifically a EMP´s Screen Destination has 1
fixed Mixing layer, its BG. Then there are a number of mixing layers available in the system.
The E2 Lite has 2 Banks of 8 Mixing Layers for a total of 16 Mixing Layers or 32 Single Layers (32L). These 16
Mixing Layers can be assigned to Destinations, using up to 4 Outputs (1 Bank). If a Destination uses Outputs
from both Banks, the Mixing Layer count is reduced to 8.
The layer system has been optimized in E2 Lite to allow the maximum available layer count at all times and
can therefore be a bit confusing.
Based on the Layer mode ("2K HD" or "Dual Link": set in the System Modifier Panel), the number of "Assign
Layer to Destination" varies. The maximum number of Single Layers available to an E2 Lite processor are 32
for 2K HD, and 16 for Dual Link.
Layers need to be assigned to destinations before sources can be added to the destination.
Output menu
The Output Menu contains four sub-menus: Main, Color, Timing and Connector properties. Adjustments to
the Main, Timing, and Connector properties are identical with the adjustments to the Main, Timing, and
Connector properties in the output configuration menu. In this destination configuration menu, however,
adjustments can be performed on all or on selected outputs that make up the destination. Individual outputs
can be selected by clicking on the corresponding screen. When a screen is selected its outline turns blue. All
outputs can also be selected by clicking on the Select All button.
◦
Minimum delay capable Screen
Destinations that are rotated have 1 frame
of delay.
◦
Non-minimum delay capable Screen
Destinations that are rotated have 2 frames
of delay.
◦
AUX Destinations have 1 frame of delay.
◦
Rotated AUX Destinations have 2 frames of
delay.
- When a Destination is rotated, the canvas is
accordingly resized.
- When a Destination is rotated, the Screen
Destination as a source to a Layer is not
rotated.
Note: The Output rotation icons are available only
for Output from the Quad DisplayPort 1.2 Output
card and from the Tri-Combo Output card.
• Outputs: Provides a list of the output
configurations assigned to the Destination.
For Aux destinations, only 1 Output configuration
is shown or is allowed to be defined. From this
menu outputs can be deleted or added as in the
output configuration menu.
• Layer (only applicable when Destination is a
Screen). You can assign a size to the Layer: SL
(2K Single Link), DL (Dual Link), or 4K. You can
also make the Layer either a Mixing Layer or a
Single Layer.
The list shows the Layers assigned to this
Destination.
