Transition Controls and Operation
A transition is a change from one combination of video and audio elements
(or sources) to another combination. These elements can be any of the fol-
lowing:
■ Married — video and audio supplied on the same crosspoint.
■ Video Only — video only signal supplied on this crosspoint.
■ Audio Only — there are four Audio Only PGM/PST crosspoint but-
tons, located on the Audio Control portion of the Manual Control
Panel.
■ Custom Transitions — split audio/video transitions by assigning them
different parameters in the Configuration Manager. You can configure
separate transition types, transition durations, and other associated
parameters. This is a software enabled option.
The following transition control buttons are explained in this section:
■ Transition Type
■ Transition Rate
■ Audio/Video Breakaway (Mode)
■ Next Transition
■ PreRoll/Transition
The following transition types are also explained in this section:
■ Custom transitions
■ Hot switching on the Program bus (Take)
Transition Type
In normal operation, Preset sources are transferred to the Program bus
through a transition. Transitions allow you to replace the current Program
output with the Preset source at a selected transition rate. There are five
standard transition types. The
Transition and Rate pushbuttons on the
MMCP are shown in Figure 2-5 .
