The

Near Side Source

and

Far Side Source

selections allow the operator to select

the near (visible) side, or the far (not visible side) of a digitally manipulated
source. This is done by selecting the desired source from the keypad on the
right which lists all switcher sources. A scroll bar is provided to allow the
operator to see all available sources. In addition, a Scroll Sources data box
is provided to select a source number from a numeric keypad. The Near
Side/Far Side functionality is used in conjunction with a Transform Engine
or external DPM is associated with the bus (aux buses or buses with Effects
Send active).

When a different source is chosen for the B channel (not associated with the
video signal in the Sources menu) the SPLIT indicator will light as shown
above to indicate a split key has been performed.
