The selected buttons light up and indicate which picture components will be
affected during the next transition. The result can be checked on the preview moni-
tor. The display above the buttons shows the type of transition (WP1 for Wipe1,
WP2 for Wipe2, MIX, DVE, ADD) that was selected for the respective picture com-
ponent. The “switched on” status of a keyer is indicated with On below the next-
transition buttons.

The priority among the keyers 1 and 2 is indicated with Over (RPD 35-4) or Mid
(RPD 35-2/-3) . Keyer 3 is always on top
If, for instance, Over is on below Key 1, keyer 1 has priority over keyer 2.
Button Key Over in the Keyers panel enables the user to change the priority of the
keyers 1 and 2.
