Areas to be covered are: • • • • • Chapter Structure How to Use This Guide Conventions Terms and Definitions System Overview `Ü~éíÉê=píêìÅíìêÉ The following chapters provide instructions for all aspects of ScreenPRO-II operations: • Chapter 1, “Introduction” provides a system overview, a list of features, and discusses easy ways to use this guide.
NK==fåíêçÇìÅíáçå How to Use This Guide eçï=íç=rëÉ=qÜáë=dìáÇÉ Following are important tips for streamlining your use of this User’s Guide in its electronic “PDF” form. k~îáÖ~íáåÖ Use Acrobat Reader’s “bookmarks” to navigate to the desired location. All chapter files have the same bookmark structure for instant navigation to any section. Please note: • • Extensive hyperlinks are provided within the chapters.
NK==fåíêçÇìÅíáçå Terms and Definitions qÉêãë=~åÇ=aÉÑáåáíáçåë The following terms and definitions are used throughout this guide: • A “Background” is an unscaled source, typically originating from a computer. ScreenPRO-II enables you to work with two background sources, each of which appears at the system’s lowest priority — visually in back of all other sources. • • The abbreviation “BG” is also used throughout this guide for Background.
NK==fåíêçÇìÅíáçå System Overview póëíÉã=lîÉêîáÉï The following topics are discussed in this section: • • • • • • ScreenPRO-II High-Resolution Seamless Switcher ScreenPRO-II Features Product Models Multiple Screen User Interface (Optional) A Word About Layers Effect Combinations pÅêÉÉåmolJff eáÖÜJoÉëçäìíáçå=pÉ~ãäÉëë=pïáíÅÜÉê The ScreenPRO-II Seamless Switcher is a high-resolution multi-layer video display system that combines seamless switching with a variety of creative video effects.

NK==fåíêçÇìÅíáçå System Overview jìäíáéäÉ=pÅêÉÉå=rëÉê=fåíÉêÑ~ÅÉ=Eléíáçå~äF Event control is available using multiple ScreenPRO-II units in conjunction with the Encore SC/LC Controller or the ScreenPRO-II Controller. In this mode, all ScreenPRO-II functions (including system setup) are supported from the controller, which is equipped with easy-touse menus, a T-Bar for manual transitions and buttons for user presets.
NK==fåíêçÇìÅíáçå System Overview • The high resolution Background layer has the lowest priority. This layer visually appears “behind” all other PIPs, keys, and the DSK. The system can transition between two background sources — both of which must be at native projector resolution. • A PIP layer appears “over” backgrounds and “under” the DSK and LOGO. Effects include mixes and wipes, linear moves and resizing, adjustable aspect ratio, borders, drop shadows and soft edges.
NK==fåíêçÇìÅíáçå System Overview jáñÉê=bÑÑÉÅí=O This transition is similar to effect 1, but because the DSK is not in use, the background can transition from source A to B, and the PIP can transition between layers A and B. Background A ↔B PIP A↔B Figure 1-4. Effect 2 Diagram jáñÉê=bÑÑÉÅí=P In this effect, because the DSK is in use, the background cannot transition — you can only use background A.
NK==fåíêçÇìÅíáçå System Overview jáñÉê=bÑÑÉÅí=R In this effect, because the DSK is in use, the background cannot transition — you can only use background A. Here, you can independently fade two scaled PIPs up and down — with or without the DSK on screen. Background A PIP A PIP B DSK Figure 1-7. Effect 5 Diagram jáñÉê=bÑÑÉÅí=S This transition is similar to effect 5, but because the DSK is not in use, the background can transition. You can also independently fade the two PIPs.

6. Operations Working with Layer Functions rëáåÖ=cêÉÉòÉ Use the following steps to freeze a layer’s motion on both Program and Preview. This function is useful for PIPs and Keys that use video and animated graphics. Freeze 1. In the Layer Control Section, activate the layer that you wish to freeze. The button blinks to indicate it is active. 2. In the Mixer Functions Section, press Freeze to freeze the layer on both Preview and Program (if applicable).
6. Operations Working with Layer Functions rëáåÖ=ildl=~ë=_ä~Åâ=mêÉîáÉï LOGO In addition to its use as a full screen downstream graphic (with the highest visual layer priority), the LOGO layer can also be used as a convenient “black preview” function. This enables you to fade to black at any time, from any simple or complex setup, without affecting the underlying "look." Use the following steps to fade to black using the LOGO: 1. Set up your PIPs and Keys in the normal manner. 2.
6. Operations Using Move rëáåÖ=jçîÉ The following topics are discussed in this section: • • • Programming Moves Pending and Triggering Moves Move Notes mêçÖê~ããáåÖ=jçîÉë Move ScreenPRO-II enables you to move a PIP or a key smoothly from one screen location to another at a predefined rate, while the layer is on-air. All moves are two-keyframe effects, with a starting location and an ending (destination) location. There are two ways to program a move — on Preview or on Program.
6. Operations Using Move mêçÖê~ã=jçîÉ=çå=mêçÖê~ã=jÉíÜçÇ This mode enables you to program a move with the image on both Program and Preview — after a layer has transitioned to Program. When you press Move Setup to change a layer’s size and position, only the raster box moves — rather than the entire image. Use the following steps to program a move on Program: 1. In the Layer Control Section, select the layer (on Program) that you want to move (A or B).
6. Operations Using Move mÉåÇ=çå=mêçÖê~ã=jÉíÜçÇ This "move" method enables you to move the PIP or Key manually, when the layer is already on Program. Use the following steps to pend a move on Program: 1. With the move properly programmed, ensure that the layer containing a move is selected and blinking. 2. Perform a MIX, CUT or WIPE. The transition takes the Preview image to Program. 3. To pend the move, press Move in the Mixer Functions Section.
6. Operations Working with Transitions tçêâáåÖ=ïáíÜ=qê~åëáíáçåë Use the following steps to perform a Cut: CUT 1. Set up the desired “look” in Preview. 2. In the Transition Section, press CUT to instantly cut the setup to Program. Use the following steps to perform a Mix (or "dissolve"): MIX 1. Set up the desired “look” in Preview. 2. Preset the desired transition rate: 3. a. Press {HOME} > {EFFECTS} to display the Effects Menu. b.
6. Operations Modifying Layers On Program jçÇáÑóáåÖ=i~óÉêë=lå=mêçÖê~ã The ScreenPRO-II system enables you to modify layers directly on Program, without first setting up a "look" on Preview. The mode is typically used for creating and viewing a "look" on Program, especially in conjunction with a large screen projector — when the Preview monitor may be too small to realize the desired result. Use the following steps to modify layers directly on Program: 1.
6. Operations Capturing Still Frames `~éíìêáåÖ=píáää=cê~ãÉë The following topics are discussed in this section: • • • • Still Frame Capture Overview Capturing Still Frames from a Background Input Capturing Still Frames from a Layer Saving Still Frames in Permanent Memory píáää=cê~ãÉ=`~éíìêÉ=lîÉêîáÉï ScreenPRO-II enables you to capture still frames into the system’s three internal frame stores, using the system’s BG A or BG/DSK B inputs as full screen sources, or using a layer as a full screen source.
6. Operations Capturing Still Frames 7. Press {CAPTURE} to capture the still. Once pressed, the screen will indicate that the frame is being captured. A pop-up message confirms the procedure. 8. Repeat the procedure from step 4 to capture additional stills from a background input. Remember that you can always overwrite FG_1, FG_2 or FG_3. Please note: • The captured still(s) can now be assigned as the input “type” for BG A, BG B, the DSK or the LOGO.
6. Operations Capturing Still Frames p~îáåÖ=píáää=cê~ãÉë=áå=mÉêã~åÉåí=jÉãçêó Use the following steps to save a captured still into permanent memory. 1. Capture a still as outlined in the previous two sections. ~ ~ "Capturing Still Frames from a Background Input" on page 137. "Capturing Still Frames from a Layer" on page 138. Warning 2.
