eDPM Operations
The Kayenne eDPM option is like an external four channel DVE built into
the switcher. Unlike iDPMs, eDPMs are not tied to keyers so they can be
mapped to any source select button or delegated to any of the six keyers on
any ME. Any of the four outputs (eDA, eDB for the Primary Partition and
eDC eDD for the Secondary Partition) can be combined and composited for
re-entry, allowing multiple eDPM Channels on one keyer. eDPM channels
run on their own timelines which makes this feature very flexible.
Note iDPMs and eDPMs are software options (and hardware in the case of eDPM)
and must be enabled in the Eng Setup, Install Options menu when purchased.
eDPMs can be combined with iDPMs to create up to 20 licensed DVEs (on
a 4-ME system). Combining iDPMs with eDPMs can be very powerful and
free up switcher ME resources. For example mapping a composite of six
DVEs with iDPMs only, would require the use of two MEs with keyers from
each. With the addition of eDPMs, you could:
• On the same ME, create four iDPM transforms on Keyers 1-4 and then
create two eDPM transforms (perhaps a graphic and a clock) and assign
those transformed sources to Keyers 5 and 6,
• Map the ME to a PGM PST source select button and have a composite
of six DVEs on one source to take to air, then
• Assign the ME source to one of the four keyers on PGM PST and key
the composite of DPMs, or
• Apply an additional transform to the composite with a PGM PST iDPM
on any of the first four keyers and transform the entire composite.
eDPM Channels assigned to the Primary Partition can be made visible in
the Secondary and vice versa.
The Kayenne eDPM option has similar menus and controls to the iDPM
option.
Kayenne Version 2.0 and Later
Starting with Kayenne 2.0, the eDPM is now completely separate from the
rest of the Switcher Master E-MEM so you can recall and run effects from
the eDPM independently, or, you can use the Master E-MEM timeline to
recall and run the eDPM. This allows you to control the eDPM exactly as
you would with an external DPM. Also, you can have multiple E-MEM reg
-
isters recalling the same eDPM effect.
The switcher timeline and the eDPM timeline can now be different registers
and have different lengths. If you run the timeline from the eDPM Timeline,
it will run the effect as created in the eDPM or if you run it from the Master
