A blinking button indicates there is a shifted source selected. Press the ‘shift’ button for the
program or preview rows to select a shifted source, such as a media player, color bars, or color
generators, known as background 1 and background 2. The labels on the buttons show you
which sources, both main and shifted, are available on each button.
TIP Shifted sources can also be selected by double pressing the corresponding
source button.
Transition Buttons
The transition buttons are located above the transition slider and contain all the different
transition types and patterns available in your switcher.
To perform a transition:
1 Press a transition button, such as a mix, dip, logo, DVE, or wipe.
2 If choosing a DVE push or squeeze transition, choose a movement pattern from any
of their 8 surrounding pattern buttons.
TIP A stinger transition can be selected by holding down shift and pressing
the 'mix' button. You can confirm the selection using the LCD menu.
Similarly, there are many choices for different SMPTE wipe patterns and to select one,
all you need to do is press any of the wipe patterns, for example a diagonal, diamond
or oval wipe.
3 When you are happy with your transition selection, press the ‘auto’ button next to the
transition slider to automatically perform the transition, or use the slider to perform the
transition manually.
The transition pattern buttons let you choose which pattern
to use in a transition, such as a horizontal wipe
TIP The invert button lets you swap the direction of a wipe. For example, a
diamond wipe typically starts from the center of the screen and moves out to
the edges, but if you press the invert button, this changes the direction of the
wipe so it will start from the edges of the screen and move towards the center.
