    DD Production Switchers Safety instructions SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Safety regulations The DD switcher is designed in conformity with the safety regulations EN60950 / VDE 0805 (protection class 1) and are in an unobjectionable condition when leav- ing the factory. Information on the following pages provides important safety guidelines for Opera- tors and Service Personnel.
  • Page 5 Safety instructions DD Production Switchers Fuses Caution – Double-pole or neutral fusing! After acting of the protective devices, parts of the equipment may remain under voltage. Each main input is is protected by two primary-side fuses located on the power terminal of the switchers units (mainframe, panel).
  • Page 6 DD Produktionsmischer Sicherheitshinweise SICHERHEITSHINWEISE Sicherheits- Die DD Mischer entsprechen den Sicherheitsbestimmungen von EN60950 / VDE bestimmungen 0805 (Schutzklasse 1) und haben das Werk in sicherheitstechnisch einwandfreiem Zustand verlassen. Um diesen Zustand zu erhalten und einen gefahrlosen Betrieb sicherzustellen, sind die nachfolgenden und die in den einzelnen Abschnitten des Handbuches auf- geführten Sicherheitshinweise, insbesondere die Hinweise bezüglich Brandge- fahr, elektrischer Schlag und Verletzungsgefahren, zu beachten: Achtung:...
  • Page 7 Sicherheitshinweise DD Produktionsmischer Sicherungen Achtung – Zweipolige bzw. Neutralleiter-Sicherung! Teile des Gerätes können auch nach dem Auslösen einer Sicherung unter Spannung bleiben! Die Absicherung des Mischers erfolgt durch primärseitig angebrachte Schmelzein- sätze in den Netzanschlußeinheiten der Geräte (Bedienpult und E-Box). Beim Auswechseln dieser Sicherungen nur eine Sicherung vom angegebenen Typ und mit gleicher Nennstromstärke als Ersatz verwenden.

    (2 key stages). After the key stages, a facility is provided for fade to black (FTB). In DD5 and DD10 which do not dispose of a preset/program stage, only 1 downstream keyer is avail- able for luminance or linear key.
  • Page 24: Mask Generators

    Diamond digital 1. General Luminance key/linear key The key generator enables a luminance key. The signal can be bordered by means of the borderliner. It is possible to key on all luminance values (CLIP). The rise time (SOFTNESS) of the signal can be steepened. The key signal can be inverted (KEY INVERT). The LINEAR KEY mode allows the use of key and fill signals (on black background) from external sources, e.g.
  • Page 25: Borderliners

    1. General Diamond digital 1.6.5 BORDERLINERS For bordering caption signals generated by chroma luminance or linear key, a bor- derliner is realized for each keyer. Two borderliners at maximum for DD10. As a standard feature, the following border types are provided: •...
