The Eikos² oers a wide variety of transions between the scenes you create for your shows and events. It
allows for live recall of 8 user presets, each of which you can edit at any given me.
1. Whether catering for complex event setups, or pung together intricate shows, your Eikos² will also deli-
ver some of what you could expect from a dedicated mixer, along with its switcher and scaler capabilies.
2. In the Layer Selecon secon, press the Layer A buon. The buon will start blinking. On your Preview
screen, Layer A will appear as a color rectangle. The parameters of the layer will automacally appear on
your Eikos² VFD menu screen.
3. In the Layer Menu, make the posion, size, border and transparency sengs you like, then select Opening
Eect in the layer opons, press the ENTER buon and select Type. Select Slide Le - Right for example,
and press the ENTER buon to conrm. Navigate to Duraon in the Opening Eect sub-menu, and set the
duraon of your eect by rotang the SCROLL knob and pressing ENTER.
Repeat the procedure in the Closing Eect sub-menu to determine the way your layer will close. Try Slide
From Le - Right for the closing type with a duraon of 1.5 seconds for example.
8.2.20 Capturing logos
To capture a logo, display the exact content you want to save on the Program or Preview screen, you can use
the freeze buon if you want. Then follow these steps:
Logos/Frames menu > Record Logo menu > Set up your logo > Store menu > logo#
To set up your logo you have several features available:
- Posion / Size Adjustment
- Keying type
- Luma / Chroma key
- Cut out color.
Select the logo number you want to save and wait unl the unit nishes saving. Your logo is now saved and
you can use it through the logo buon.
You can save up to 8 logos with the Eikos².
The capture of logos can be done only with the following condions:
- The capture can be done on the Program output or the Preview output
- The disappearance of logos on the Preview and Program output is normal during saving.
The logos are captured with the same size as is visible on the Program output without any form of adjust-
ments. If zooming is required, resize the layer or use the layer zoom or input zoom.
A logo captures the state of the dened area on the specied output at the Program output resoluon, and
must be recalled using the same output resoluon. Resizing or other image manipulaon of the captured
logo is not possible.
The capture zone is outlined by a white rectangle and includes the pixels beneath the white border. The non-
captured area has a reduced brightness.
