DME
Chapter 11 DME Operations
Inversion of input signal
Key density adjustment
Adjusts the key density for the key signal input to the DME
(see page 297).
Key source selection
Selects either the key signals received from the switcher or
the key signals generated in the DME for application to the
front and back of the image (see page 232 or page 297).
Color mix setting
This is a combination of two colors with a pattern
generator. This color mix signal can be used to fill parts
such as a background or border (see page 253).
Global Effects
Global effects are special effects created by combining the
images of successive channels. The following types of
global effects are available.
• Combiner
•Brick
• Shadow
Devices for DME Support
The following boards and processors provide DME
support.
The available functions depend on the type of DME being
used. For details, see “Functional Differences With
Models of DME” in Appendix (page 355).
MKS-7470X/7471X DME board set (MVS-
7000X only)
Installing this in the MVS-7000X allows DME to be
operated as though part of the switcher.
Each board supports two channels, and a maximum of two
boards (four channels) can be used.
There are two types of interfaces available for connecting
DMEs to the switcher: the dedicated interface and the SDI
interface.
For details, see “Setting the Interface Between the DME
and the Switcher” in Chapter 20 (Volume 2).
The use of the SDI interface requires an MKS-8110X 20-
input board and an MKS-7171X DME output connector
board. When using the SDI interface, the following
operations are different from using the dedicated interface.
• Setting the input signals from the switcher to the MKS-
7470X/7471X (AUX bus outputs), and signals returned
to the switcher (reentry inputs).
For details, see “Setting the AUX Bus Output and
Reentry Input” in Chapter 20 (Volume 2).
• Selecting the combiner channels not in the key control
block, but in the Global Effect menu.
For details, see “Procedure for combine operation when
using an SDI interface” (page 302)
MVE-8000A Multi Format DME Processor
The MVE-8000A is a “Digital Multi Effects” with multi-
format support.
For the MVE-8000A, an optional MKE-8021A Input/
Output Board is available as a dedicated interface for
integrated use with the switcher.
There are two types of interfaces available for connecting
DMEs to the switcher: the dedicated interface and the SDI
interface.
When using the SDI interface, the following operations are
different from using the dedicated interface.
For details, see “Setting the Interface Between the DME
and the Switcher” in Chapter 20 (Volume 2).
• Setting the input signals from the switcher to the MVE-
8000A (AUX bus outputs), and signals returned to the
switcher (reentry inputs). However, “Ext In” cannot be
set for the DME channel.
For details, see “Setting the AUX Bus Output and
Reentry Input” in Chapter 20 (Volume 2).
• Selecting the combiner channels not in the key control
block, but in the Global Effect menu (see page 301).
