Description of graphic wipe parameters
Rate
Rate specifies the length of the transition in seconds and frames.
The rate can be adjusted using the rate knob or by entering a number on the
number pad and pressing the set rate button.
Normal
The normal direction moves the graphic from left to right.
Reverse
Reverse changes the direction so that it moves the graphic from right to left.
FlipFlop
When FlipFlop mode is toggled on, the transition changes between normal and
reverse every time the transition is executed. The ‘Normal’ or ‘Reverse’ light
indicates the direction of the next transition.
Fill Source
The fill signal is the graphic used to move across the top of the transition.
Key Source
The key signal is a grayscale image that defines the region in the graphic that will be
removed so that the fill signal can be correctly stacked on top of the wipe.
Graphic wipe images
The graphic wipe feature requires a static graphic that is used as a moving border for a
horizontal wipe. This graphic should be a vertical ‘banner’ type graphic that is no more than
25% of the total screen width.
