Graphics Co-Processor

This section describes how to configure the Imagestore 750 for use with a
Miranda Graphics Co-Processor:

Miranda Imagestore Intuition+ Graphics Co-Processor

Miranda VertigoXG Graphics Processor (Single channel).

Note that this section does not apply to systems using Presmaster control.

It is recommended to control the Graphics Co-Processor directly from
automation as it uses the same Oxtel Series Automation protocol interface.
However, if an additional automation port is not available then the
Imagestore 750 can be placed in a mode where it can forward commands to
the Co-Processor, as shown in the Intuition example below:

Here, Imagestore Intuition can simultaneously transmit templates or
animation files loaded through numerous virtual keying layers. These files
are composited into one signal that feeds through the available FILL and
KEY inputs of the Imagestore 750.

The composited stream (virtual layers) then get loaded into DSK1, DSK2,
DSK3 or DSK4 layers via the ‘Load Live’ feature.
