The Source Identification overlay (Figure 4.15) displays the name of the current program
source, the current transition and direction, followed by the name of the current preview source.
Figure 4.15 Source ID
The Program Source (in red) is displayed on the left, and shows what is currently on-air and will
be taken off-air with the next transition. The Preview Source (in green) is displayed on the right
and shows what will be taken on-air during the next transition.
Between the Program Source and the Preview Source is the Transition Type. The Transition
Type shows the type of transition that will be performed for the next transition. The Transition
Types are as follows:
• D — Dissolve
• W — Wipe
• ST — Squeeze & Tease Wipe
• SQ — Sequence

VTR TC
The VTR Timecode overlay (Figure 4.16) displays the timecode of the VTR, DDR, Video
Server, or other external device that is on-air and/or will be transitioned on-air. The device must
be controlled from the switcher in order for the timecode information to be available.
Figure 4.16 VTR TC
By default, the timecode is red if it is on-air, yellow if it is selected, but not on-air, and gray if it is
not selected or on-air. Only two timecodes can be displayed at the same time on the preview
overlay.
The VTR Timecode overlay is made up of three elements, the input BNC of the clip, the on-air
status, the timecode of the clip, or time remaining in the clip. The timecode or the time remaining
can be shown, depending on how the VTR POL Displays features are set.
When you select VTR TC, VTR TC Position is shown on the display on the Positioner Module,
indicating that the positioner can be used to move the VTR Timecode element around on the
screen.
