15. Multiviewer
The multiviewer allows users to monitor multiple images such as the video sources input to the
switcher and internally generated or combined images on the same screen. Three types of split
displays are available: quad, 10 and 16 way. The video titles and the on-air tally information can be
also displayed. Note that the multiviewer output is delayed by one frame relative to the program
output.
The setup procedure for the multiviewer is as follows:
1. Assign the multiviewer video to an AUX output bus
2. Select a split-screen type.
3. Select video for each split area.
4. Add titles, on-air tally and frame border.
