Bus Pair Rules

Zodiak source selection buses can operate in pairs. M/E keyer buses
operate in video fill/key cut mode. Aux buses can be configured in pairs,
either as video fill/key cut or as video/video for external DPMs. When an
bus pair is involved in bus linking, the following rules apply:

Key cut selections on video fill/key cut bus pairs does not affect the key
cut source on a linked bus (split key cut selections don’t link).

The fill/A side of the Controlling bus is always sent to the fill/A side
of the Linked bus.

If the Controlling bus is in video/video mode, the B side selection will
be sent to the Linked bus.

If the Linked bus is in video-video mode, a B side source change from
the Controlling bus will change the Linked bus's B side.

A video only bus behaves as if it is the A side of a bus pair.
