Capturing and Saving an Input Image

As the input material for the frame memory, you can use the signal selected on
the frame memory source bus. For this signal you can use video processing
(video levels or hue value adjustment) or masking.

Allocating a frame memory source bus signal to one of FM1 to FM8, then
carrying out a freeze captures a still image in the corresponding frame memory
output image, and saves it in temporary memory.
For a freeze, an image can be captured either as video frame (a “frame freeze”)
or a video field (“field freeze”).

Note

When the system is powered off, any freeze images written to temporary
memory are lost.

Freezing an image and writing it to memory

To freeze the signal selected as input material, and write it to memory, use the
following procedure.

In the Frame Memory menu, select VF1 ‘Still’ and HF2 ‘Freeze/Store.’
