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.

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.)
