Look Ahead Preview
This feature allows you to view different preview outputs,
depending on whether or not the ME is on-air. Look
Ahead preview works differently than the standard
Preview, as, instead of displaying the output of just the
Program or Preview, the output of the Look Ahead
preview changes depending on the on-air status of the
ME.
Any output BNC can be assigned as the Look Ahead
preview for an ME, except for the Program/Preset ME.
The output of the Look Ahead preview depends on
whether the ME is on-air or not.
• ME Off-Air — The Look Ahead preview displays
the Program output for the assigned ME. This is what
is displayed when you take this ME to air.
• ME On-Air — The Look Ahead preview displays
the Preview output for the assigned ME. This is what
is taken to air if you transition this ME.
For example, if you have ME 4 on-air, the Look Ahead
preview monitors display the Program output for ME 1,
ME 2 and ME 3. If you re-enter ME 3 into ME 4, the
Look Ahead preview for ME 1 and ME 2 remain
unchanged, but the Look Ahead preview for ME 3 shows
the Preview output for ME 3.
Preview Overlay
The Preview Overlay allows you to view information
such as Source ID, Safe Title area, and Time Clock on
the preview output. This information is layered over top
of the preview video.
Note: If the Global-Store 4 Mode personality option is set to
Still-Store, the preview overlay is not available.
Note: Preview Overlay is not available when the switcher is
operating in a UHDTV1 video format.
