Color Backgrounds
A color background is a function used to create color
background video, using a color signal created by a
dedicated generator.
Color background selection
There are two color backgrounds, color background 1 and
color background 2, which you use by assigning to cross-
point buttons.
In 4K format, color background 2 cannot be used.
Color mix
The color generators can output the result of combining
two colors, which are color 1 and color 2.
Using a pattern from a dedicated pattern generator, color 1
and color 2 can be combined in the boundary region, forming
a color gradation. This is referred to as a “color mix.”
You can also apply modifiers to the selected pattern.
When the “color mix” function is not used, the result is a
flat color, and color 1 is always output.
You carry out color background settings in the Color Bkgd
menu.
This section describes setting color background 1 as an
example.
