When MAIN is selected in the SWITCHER DELEGATE group, operations in this row are further modified by
the OVERLAY DELEGATE selection in the Transition (T-Bar) group.

When MAIN is selected in the SWITCHER DELEGATE group, if DSK 1, DSK2, or both are lit, making a
selection on the FX/OVERLAY row sets the source for the related channel(s).

If BKGD alone is lit (or, for that matter FTB only), a button selection in the FX/OVERLAY row assigns
the ‘FX’ source.

For professional model TriCasters, this is the same as setting the source assigned to the Green (FX)
switcher
row group.

As you would expect, when MAIN is selected in the SWITCHER DELEGATE
group, PROGRAM and PREVIEW row operations perform just like their
onscreen counterparts.

On the other hand, when one of the M/E delegates (1-4) is selected in the
SWITCHER DELEGATE group, the three rows beneath are repurposed to
correspond to KEY, INPUT A and INPUT B rows of the delegated M/E(s).

HIFT

SHIFT is a ‘qualifier button’ (like ALT), providing access to secondary functions for certain buttons. (For
example, ALT + SHIFT + (Preview row selection) toggles the Proc Amp feature for the designated video
source.)
