The automatic chroma key is based the colors located within the virtual playfield.
For this reason, the virtual playfield must be correctly matched to the real
playfield on the snapshot you will use for the automatic chroma key.
To configure a chroma key based on an automatic chroma key, proceed as follows:
1. In the main operational menu, jog to an image of the real playfield that you will
use for the chroma key configuration.
2. Press SHIFT+D to enter the Epsio menu.
3. If the virtual playfield is not correctly matched to the real playfield, do one of
the following:
o Validate the field limits as explained in the section 3.2.2 ‘How to Validate
the Playfield Limits’, on page 49.
o Make an offside animation as explained in the section 3.2.3 ‘How to Create
an Offside Line Animation’, on page 50.
4. Press SHIFT+B to enter the Chroma Key edit screen.
