Specifications

• The audio associated with a MediaWipe is
embedded in the video stream of the ME that the
transition is performed on. The audio can also be
taken out of the video stream of the Media-Store
channel used for the MediaWipe. The M1MW and
M2MW outputs are dedicated to these Media-Store
channels.
To Set Up a MediaWipe
A MediaWipe

you want to use. How the animation plays and appears
during the transition is stored in the animation. Refer to
Media-Store on page 46 for information animations.

Transition Limits
The Transition Limit allows you to set the point in a
transition where an auto transition stops. When active,
the point in the transition where the auto transition will
stop is indicated by a ashing segment on the transition
progress bar next to the fader handle. The auto transition
proceeds to this point and stops. The second auto
transition starts from the transition limit point and goes
back to where the rst transition started.
Tip: If you turn Limit off when the transition has stopped at the
transition limit point, the next transition starts from the transition
limit point and goes forward to complete the transition, instead
of going back to the start.
To Set Up a Transition Limit
A transition limit is set using the fader of the ME that
you want to set up the transition limit on. The transition
limit is specic to the ME it is set on.
1.
Set up the transition you want to perform.
2.
Press NEXT until Limit is shown on the menu.
3.
Move the fader to the position in the transition
where you want to set the transition limit point.
4.
Toggle the Limit knob (On) to set the transition
limit point.
The segment on the transition progress bar next
to the fader handle ashes, indicating the location
of the transition limit point.
The transition limit is set and active for the ME you set
it on. You can turn transition limit on and off by toggling
the Limit knob while the fader is at either the top or
bottom limit. If the fader is not on a limit when you
toggle the transition limit on, a new transition limit will
be set. Double-press the Limit knob to reset the transition
limit point.
GPI Output Triggers
Each video source can have a GPI output assigned to it.
This GPI can be used to trigger an external device, such
as a video server, to play the cued clip when the video
sources from the video server are taken on-air. This
trigger can be set up to occur automatically any time the
video source is transitioned on-air, or it can be triggered
manually.
An automatic GPI output trigger can be overridden if
required.
Note: The Next Button Secondary Function must be set to
GPO to be able to trigger a GPI output manually using the NEXT
button.
Keep the following in mind when working with GPI
output triggers:
•
The RlClip knob must be set to On to trigger a
GPI output with a transition.
• Edge triggered GPI outputs remain triggered for
the congured duration.
• Level triggered GPI outputs toggle between high
and low each time they are triggered.
