Switch on Field or Frame
The Switch On feature allows you to select when the 
switcher triggers a transition from one video source

video format. Each interlaced video frame is 
composed of an odd field and an even field and you 
can specify that transitions are initiated on:
• even fields only
• odd fields only
• either even or odd fields
If you are running in a progressive scan video 
format, setting your switcher to transition on even or 
odd fields will cause the switcher to only allow 
transitions on every second frame.
To set when the switcher initiates transitions:
1. Press MENU.

is drawn.
• F2 — Field 2 (Even Field) transitions are 
initiated after the even field of the source 
video is drawn.

either even or odd fields or frames.
