Key Masking
Both upstream and downstream keyers have an adjustable rectangular mask that can be used
to crop out harsh edges and other artifacts in the video signal. The mask consists of left, right,
top and bottom crop controls. Masking can also be used as a creative tool to build rectangular
cut outs on screen.
On the hardware panel the mask is set up for each upstream and downstream key from the
system control mask menu which is available from the EFFECTS KEYS or DSK KEYS menus.
On the software control panel the mask is set up for each upstream or downstream key from
the palettes in the settings tab.
Flying Key
Luma, chroma and pattern upstream key types include a flying key setting. If a DVE channel is
available the Flying Key setting allows DVE effects to be applied to the key.
Performing Upstream Keyer Transitions
The upstream keyers are accessible from the transition control block or the system control.
Theupstream keyers are taken on and off the program output using the next transition buttons
or ON buttons.
ON buttons
Take the upstream keyers on or off the program output using the ON (on air) buttons as follows:
1 Press the ON button above the corresponding next transition KEY button to
immediately turn on or turn off the upstream key on the program output.
2 The ON button also indicates if the upstream keyer is currently on or off the
program output.
