Section 2— Control Panel Descriptions
In the signal path through the Model 2200 switcher, keys,
including preset patterns, occur before the effect send crosspoints.
This allows any key, including a preset pattern, to be sent to an
external digital video effects device via an effects send. Transition
wipes, however, occur after the effects send crosspoints.
After pressing the PRI PST PTTN function the SPLIT KEY indicator
is turned off.
NOTE:
Double-pressing the PRI PST PTTN or SEC PST PTTN button in
the keyer subpanel opens up a menu that allows you to set the preset
pattern wipe direction. A single press of either the PRI PST PTTN or the
SEC PST PTTN button auto delegates the wipe subpanel.
Pressing the SEC PRESET PATTERN (Secondary Preset Pattern)
button selects the optional secondary wipe generator as the key
source. Operation of the keyer while SEC PRESET PATTERN is
selected is similar to that when PRI PRESET PATTERN is selected.
The secondary wipe generator option provides wipe pattern
selection independent of the primary wipe generator. When the
secondary wipe option is not installed, only the secondary preset
pattern edge attributes are independent (preset size, softness, soft
symmetry, border width, border matte, border opacity, and
normal/reverse).
All pattern controls are present on the wipe subpanel and wipe
menus. Refer to the wipe subpanel description, later in this
section, for a discussion of these controls.
Primary and Secondary Preset Patterns can be used with all
keyers in layered mode.
The VIDEO FILL and MATTE FILL buttons determine whether the
key is filled with key bus video or a locally generated matte. These
buttons are mutually exclusive, one of the two buttons is always
active and illuminated.
VIDEO FILL and MATTE FILL operate independently from the key
source buttons. All keyer modes except the A and B keyers
operate with either video or matte fill.
