Functions
Snapshots
The term “snapshot” refers to a function whereby the
various settings required to apply a particular effect to an
image are saved in a register as a set of data, for recall as
required, to recover the original state.
Snapshots are divided as follows.
•
Snapshots applying to a particular region (functional
block of the switcher or DME)
•
Master snapshot
•
Key snapshot
•
Wipe snapshot
•
DME wipe snapshot
An individual snapshot may also have attached special
conditions relating to switcher or DME operation when the
snapshot is recalled.
Menu macros
The term “menu macro” refers to the function whereby a
sequence of menu operations is saved as data in memory,
so that it can be recalled as required to automatically
execute the same sequence of operations.
Macro timeline
By recording macro recall and execute action on a
timeline, in the same way as for keyframes in an effect,
you can automatically execute them in a sequence.
Macro attachment
Macro attachment is a function whereby a macro register
is assigned to a control panel button or a particular position
of a fader lever, linking the execution of the button
function or a fader lever operation with a macro execution.
For details, see Chapter 16 “Macros” (Volume 2).
These conditions are called “attributes” of the snapshot,
and can be added when the snapshot is saved or recalled.
For details, see Chapter 14 “Snapshots” (Volume 2).
Files
You can save register data, including setup information
and snapshot information, as a file on a hard disk or
memory card, and recall it as required.
Utility
The utility function refers to a function whereby you can
assign an arbitrary action or a shortcut for frequently used
menu to a particular button, then instantly recall the action
or menu by pressing the button.
For details, see “Utility Execution” in Chapter 15
(Volume 2).
Shotbox
The term “shotbox” refers to a function whereby for each
specified region (see “Regions” in Chapter 13 (Volume 2))
any snapshot or keyframe effect can be recalled
simultaneously.
For details, see “Shotbox” in Chapter 15 (Volume 2).
Macros
The term “macro” refers to the function whereby a
sequence of signal selections and other operations on the
control panel is saved as data in memory (macro register),
so that it can be recalled as required to automatically
execute the same sequence of operations.
The individual control panel operations constituting a
macro are termed “events.”
Macros also provide the following functions.
You can operate on individual files or registers, or together
in a batch.
Regarding frame memory, it is possible to capture image
data stored in an external device into frame memory.
The following files can be saved and recalled.
•
Operation mode setup data for system as a whole and
individual devices
•
Device status data for system startup
•
Key memory setting data
•
Video process memory setting data
•
Keyframe effect setting data
•
Snapshot setting data
•
Wipe snapshot setting data
•
DME wipe snapshot setting data
•
Key snapshot setting data
•
Shotbox setting data
•
Macro setting data
•
Macro attachment data
•
Menu macro setting data
•
Frame memory image data
For details, see Chapter 17 “Files” (Volume 2).
