Using the Show Key Function
Show key is a function to output, for a specified time, key-
processed B&W signals from Edit PVW output.
Make a setup setting (with the Key menu) to enable and
disable the show key function, and to set the length of the
output time.
For details, see “Making show key settings” (page 174).
To output show key signals
In the key >M/E Key1 >Main menu, press [Show Key],
turning it on.
Show key signals are output when the button lights. Output
ends after the specified hold time.
You can stop show key output by pressing [Show Key]
during the output.
Using Key Memory
The key memory function allows the keyer settings on
each cross-point button to be automatically stored, so that
the next time the same cross-point button is selected these
settings are recalled automatically.
Key memory operating modes
There are two key memory operating modes: simple mode
and full mode. Make a setup setting to select one of the
modes.
The parameters stored differ as shown below, according to
the operating mode.

On how to turn the key memory function on or off and
select the key memory operating mode, see “Selecting the
key memory operating mode” (page 173).

When the key memory function on, stored settings are
recalled automatically at the same time that key signals are
selected.
