the split M/E. This selects the Secondary partition output for re-entry into
that destination M/E.

It is also possible to map the output of secondary partition of one M/E to a
crosspoint button on a different M/E using the Daily Setups Button
Mapping menu. This permits quick single button press re-entry of that sec-
ondary partition’s output directly on another M/E.

M/E Partition Preview

Preview outputs are available for both partitions of a Split M/E. In Release
15.0 the

___ pvA

output of each bank is used for the Primary partition pre-

view, and the

___ pv2

output is used for the Secondary partition preview.

These preview signals can be mapped to output connectors with the
Output Assignments menu, accessed by touching

You can preview M/E partitions on switched preview using the Preview
subpanel. Hold down the

Alt PVW

button while making the selection to view

the Secondary partition preview of an M/E.

Transition Subpanel

When the Main panel controls of a split M/E are delegated to only one par-
tition, the M/E's main transition system controls only that partition.
Moving the Transition Lever Arm or pressing the

Auto Tran

or

Cut

buttons

will affect only the delegated partition. Only elements assigned to that par-
tition may be selected for the next transition. Keyers associated with the
other partition may not be selected and therefore can not be included in the
transition.

When a split M/E has been delegated to both partitions, all the controls
become functional and simultaneous transitions in both partitions will
occur for what ever elements are selected.

As an exception to the independence of the two partitions, the four

Key Cut

and

Key Mix

buttons can always be used regardless of partitioning and panel

delegation. If a keyer is associated with the secondary partition, the

SEC

indicator above the keyer’s cut and mix buttons illuminates to inform the
operator that the keyers are not assigned to the primary partition.

Possible Out of Sync Transition Lever Arm

If a split M/E is delegated to a different partition when a transition is in
progress, an out of sync condition of the transition lever arm will probably
result. This situation is similar to recalling an E-MEM register that splits the
screen with a transition wipe. The Transition Lever Arm will need to be
re-synced (by moving the lever arm to a limit) before it can be used to finish
the transition or start a new one.
