Chapter 5
The switcher's control panel is the main control interface for the user to select video
sources and take them to air during live production. On the control panel, the user will be
allowed to select the transition style, enable/disable various keyers, and add logos to the
program view.
The OSD menu allows the user to adjust transition settings, configure chroma keyers and PIP
windows, assign inputs and outputs and modify audio parameters.
This section describes how you can switch video sources on the control panel using simple
operations.

5.1 Video Switching

First let's learn the basics of video switching.

Program and Preset rows

This row of buttons is typically used to select the switcher's main Program output image.
The selected source sent to the Program outputs will be backlit Red on this row. Simple cuts
between sources can be performed on this row by pressing on the source number required
for the next shot.
This row of buttons is typically used to select the switcher's Preview or Next source output
image. The selected source will be backlit Green on this row. You can transition between
Preview and Program using the T-Bar, the CUT button or the AUTO button.
Note: The keys on the Program and Preview rows will still be active while the T-Bar is
moving.

Black and MATTE View

The BLK/MATTE button allows the user to switch between a black background, a
matte colour and color bars on Program and Preview screens.
The MATTE color can be configured in the OSD menu. Simply go to 'Start' 
'Matte' and then adjust Luma, Saturation and Hue.
For Hue value, Red is 0, Green is approximately 120 and Blue is approximately 240. For
secondary colors, Yellow is approximately 60, Cyan is approximately 180 and Violet is
approximately 300.
