Snapshots
Chapter 1 MVS-8000 Functions
Snapshots
The term “snapshot” refers to a function whereby the various settings required
to apply a particular effect to an image are saved in memory as a set of data, for
recall as required, to recover the original state.
You can carry out snapshot operations using the numeric keypad control block,
the Flexi Pad control block in each of the M/E-1 to M/E-3 and PGM/PST
banks, and the Snapshot menu.
Note
If the M/E bank has the Inhibit setting (see “Overall Control Panel Settings
(Config Menu)” in Chapter 16 (Volume 2)), it is not possible to recall a
snapshot on that M/E bank.
For details of snapshot operations, see Chapter 14 “Snapshots” (Volume 2).
Snapshot Types
Snapshots are divided as follows.
Snapshots applying to a particular region (functional block of the
switcher or DME)
The term “snapshot” alone usually refers to this type of snapshot. This only
applies to regions assigned to region selection buttons in the numeric keypad
control block.
Master snapshot: This applies to the selected regions and the register numbers
saved in the regions. A master snapshot can be saved and recalled using the
numeric keypad control block.
Snapshots applying only to particular functions
This type of snapshot includes the following.
Key snapshot: This includes the key on/off state and all key settings other than
key priority for each keyer. (See “Key Snapshots” (page 57).)
Wipe snapshot: This includes the wipe settings of each of the M/E-1 to M/E-
3 and PGM/PST banks. (See “Wipe Snapshots” (page 71).)
DME wipe snapshot: This includes the DME wipe settings of each of the M/
E-1 to M/E-3 and PGM/PST banks.
The rest of this section describes the snapshots that apply to a particular region
or regions.
