Press the Adjustment Knob and rotate it to select Yes or No, then press the Adjustment Knob again.
The format standard converter outputs are set to composite; and they are connected to two TLM-433 monitor banks. The optional Datavideo TB-10 Tally Box can provide tally indication to the TLM-433 monitor banks; there is a tally LED above each monitor.
Basic Operation Switching The Live Output (PGM) is indicated by the Red Button on the Crosspoint Bus, to switch from one source to another simply press the required Crosspoint Button on the live bus. In this example PGM/A is the live bus, and Crosspoint 6 is the live channel. To switch to a different channel simply press one of the other Crosspoint Buttons on the PGM/A bus.
As the T-Bar is moved you will notice that both buses become live, this is because both sources are in use. When the T-Bar has fully traversed from top to bottom, or bottom to top, the SE-1000 will return to having one live bus and one cued bus.
Page 48
Press the AUTO button to effect the transition. You will see that the AUTO button is illuminated red during the transition, and that both buses become live. When the transition is complete the AUTO button light is extinguished and the SE-1000 will return to having one live bus and one cued bus.
Performing a Key Setting up a key is covered in KEY Menus - Setting up a Key on page 31 A key can be performed manually using the T-Bar or automatically using the AUTO button. The AUTO button will activate a key at the speed that has been set in the auto transition times menu. - (See TIME Menus - Setting Auto Transition Times page 35) In the following examples the KEY-S (Source) is a matte imported to F-MEM and assigned to XPT 1, the KEY-F (FILL) is a video source assigned to XPT 6, the live source is a video source assigned to XPT 7 and...

To cancel the key effect push the T-Bar the other way, or press the AUTO Button, the output will return to the live source without key. The second way to perform a key effect is to use Key in conjunction with the Background (BKGD) button. Press the Key button and the Background (BKGD) button simultaneously, so that they are both illuminated.
To cancel the key effect push the T-Bar the other way, or press the AUTO Button, the output will switch back to the live source without key. Assigning a signal to the Auxiliary Output The Auxiliary Output (AUX) can be assigned with any one of the seven crosspoints, the Preview (PVW), Program (PGM) or Clean (CLN) output.
Setting an input signal to Freeze Frame Any of the six input signals can be set to a freeze frame (still image). Press the [FUNC] button, so that it is illuminated, and then press the [FRZ] button, so that it is also illuminated.
On page 44 ( Monitoring ) there is an example of how to utilise the six built in Format / Standard converters for convenient monitoring of all the input channels. The two Datavideo TLM-433 3 x 4” TFT LCD Monitor Banks can be mounted above the SE-1000, together with the ITC-100, to form an extremely compact and space efficient set up.
Page 54
The ITC-100 is providing talkback communication between the crew and the director, and also tally light indication for the crew and talent. The PGM HD Component output is fed to the Datavideo TLM-170 17” HD Component monitor, while the PGM HD-SDI out is going to an HD Record Deck. The 6 inputs are being...

Wiring Examples In this example the SE-1000 is relying upon external sync, all the sources are connected to a signal generator, which is also connected to the SE-1000. The 4 cameras and playback VTR are connected using HD-SDI, and the laptop PC is connected using DVI.
One example of how this might be used is the import of a matte for use with the built in keyer. A simple black and white matte can be created on a PC and then imported into the SE-1000. You can also use it to save a still image from the SE-1000 to your PC, which you could then use to create a DVD sleeve.
The SE-1000 can either be connected directly to a PC or it can be connected via a hub. If the SE-1000 is connected directly to a PC you must use a LAN crossover cable, if it is connected via a hub then use a straight LAN cable.
Page 58
Click on “Use the following IP address:” and enter the details as shown, this assumes that the SE-1000 has not been changed from its default values.
Page 59
Your PC should now be ready to communicate with the SE-1000. Launch the SE-1000 Image Transfer Tool (imgTransfer.exe). You will see the IP Address at the bottom of the screen. The IP Address should match the SE-1000, which is 192.168.0.10. (In this example the IP address is 192.168.1.10 and therefore does not match)
Setting the Format (Mode) It is important that the format of the image transfer tool matches the format that you have set the SE-1000 to, otherwise image transfers will fail. Click on the drop down arrow next to the Mode window and select the format you require.
Click on the OK box to complete the process. Transferring an image from the SE-1000 To transfer an image from the SE-1000 to a PC you must first capture a still image to FMEM - see Page 28 FMEM Frame Memory for details To transfer the FMEM image to the PC click on Get Image, after a few seconds the image should appear.
RS-422 and GPI allow the SE-1000 to be controlled from an external device. Tally provides information about the status of each of the Input Channels. The Datavideo TB-10 is able to decode this data and feed tally information to tally lights, monitors such as the Datavideo TLM 433, or talkback systems such as the Datavideo ITC-100.
The GPI (General Purpose Interface) Connecter allows for a simple remote control to be added to the SE- 1000. A simple push button will emulate the Auto Button. Each time the button is pressed the SE-1000 will perform whatever transition is set.
Troubleshooting / FAQ No power If no lights are displayed on the SE-1000, when the power switch is in the On position, then there is no power or insufficient power, getting to the unit. Ensure that the power supply is connected to an appropriate AC mains outlet and that it is switched on.
TLM-433 / TLM-433JF Monitor Bank / Monitor Bank Holder The Datavideo TLM-433 3 x 4” TFT LCD monitor bank is an ideal monitoring bank for the SE-1000. Pictured above are 2 x TLM-433 which gives 6 x preview monitors, 5 for the input channels plus 1 for the AUX or PVW output.
ITC-100 Talkback / Intercom System The ITC-100 is an ideal accessory for the SE-1000. It provides bi-directional communication between the camera crew and the control room, together with bi-colour tally light information down one cable. The TB-10 can provide tally information to the ITC-100, and the ITC-100 can then send the information to the ITC- 100SL belt packs, which each member of the camera crew would be wearing.
