Basic Operations (1): Video Switching on the M/E
Bank
Let’s begin by using the M/E bank to select video signals showing a landscape
and a lion as background video, and to switch between them with an effect.
As the effect, we will use effect number 0024 (circular wipe). A wipe is an effect
which the current video is wiped away by new video using a selected pattern.
The video changes as follows.
Preparations for operation
• If you are using the 1.5 M/E panel or 1.5 M/E wide panel, press and light the
[M/E] buttons at the right edge of the PGM and PST button rows of the PGM/
PST cross-point control block.
• Before starting, move the fader lever from one end of its range to the other,
and stop it at the top position.
After finishing the above preparations, proceed as follows.
