In the Engineering Setup menu, select VF3 ‘Switcher’ and HF1 ‘Config.’
The status area shows the output signal assignment for each of the M/E and 
PGM/PST banks.
The following functions are available here.
• System Phase: Adjust the switcher internal reference phase.
• Switching Timing: Specify the timing of video switching.
• M/E Config: Set the configuration for the M/E and PGM/PST outputs.
– Standard mode: Fix the output configuration for the maximum of four 
outputs (Out1 to 4) as follows.
Out1: Program output 
Out2: Preview output 
Out3: Clean output 
Out4: Key preview output 
The program output is: clean output + key 1 + key 2 + key 3 + key 4
For the key preview output, you can select either video mode (background 
and key) or key mode (key only), and select the background and key (K-
PVW Config).
– Multi-program mode: Increase the number of M/E or PGM/PST 
programs, and assign any of the following to the maximum of six outputs 
(Out1 to 6). (M/E Output Assign)
Program outputs 1 to 4, preview output, key preview outputs 1 and 2, 
clean output.
Further, you can select the program background from Clean or Utility2, 
and change the combination of signals from which the program output is 
configured. (PGM Config)
– DSK mode: Treat P/P as four DSKs, with no background transitions. 
From among backgrounds 1 to 4, select one for which to make settings for 
program output configuration. (PGM Config) The signals which can be 
selected as the background are limited to Out1 to 6 from M/E-1 to M/E-3.
• User 1 to 8 Config: Assign the User regions, being color backgrounds 1 and 
2, AUX1 to 48, monitor 1 to 8, frame memory 1 to 8, and color correctors 1 
and 2, to any of User1 to User8.
• Logical M/E Assign: Make settings for handling PGM/PST hardware 
logically as an M/E.
