Video Operations
Switching the Video
You can switch between the videos of the PGM/A bus and PST/B bus to specify the final output.
Setting the Operation Mode
There are two operation modes for switching the video: the “PGM/
PST mode” and the “A/B mode.”
Video on the PGM/A bus
Video on the PST/B bus
PGM/PST mode (factory settings)
The video on the PGM/A bus is always the final output. The video on
the PST/B bus is preview output video (the video to be output next).
Operating the video fader or the [CUT] or [AUTO] button makes the
final video output and the preview output video change places.
A/B mode
When you operate the video fader, the video of the bus toward which
the video fader is flipped always becomes the final output. The video
of the other bus becomes the preview output video (the video that is
output next).
When the [CUT] or [AUTO] button is operated, the video on the
PGM/A bus and the video on the PST/B bus become the final output
in alternation.
