    Effect Combinations pÅêÉÉåmolJff eáÖÜJoÉëçäìíáçå=pÉ~ãäÉëë=pïáíÅÜÉê The ScreenPRO-II Seamless Switcher is a high-resolution multi-layer video display system that combines seamless switching with a variety of creative video effects. The result is a versatile video production tool for live event staging and fixed installation applications.
  • Page 17 • Output synchronization: free-run or vertically locked to NTSC/PAL black burst, CSync or HD tri-level sync mêçÇìÅí=jçÇÉäë ScreenPRO-II is available in two different models: • Basic Model The basic model includes eight analog inputs on HD-15 connectors. These inputs feed an internal 8 x 2 router, which provides sources to the two scalers. The unit also features two high resolution DVI inputs which can be used for two unscaled background sources, or one background and one DSK source.
  • Page 18 System Overview jìäíáéäÉ=pÅêÉÉå=rëÉê=fåíÉêÑ~ÅÉ=Eléíáçå~äF Event control is available using multiple ScreenPRO-II units in conjunction with the Encore SC/LC Controller or the ScreenPRO-II Controller. In this mode, all ScreenPRO-II functions (including system setup) are supported from the controller, which is equipped with easy-to- use menus, a T-Bar for manual transitions and buttons for user presets.
  • Page 19 The symbol B indicates that you can dissolve between sources within the PIP. The ScreenPRO-II system provides two backgrounds, two scalable layers in the mixer plus an unscaled DSK and a full screen, unscaled LOGO. The LOGO, DSK and backgrounds are always unscaled.
