Image Effect An image effect is a function used to apply a DME effect to the signal selected on the background A bus or B bus. Notes • When the switcher signal format is 3840×2160P SQD or 3840×2160PsF SQD, the image effect cannot be used. • There are restrictions on the number of DME channels that can be used and on the functions, depending on the switcher and signal format. For differences in functions by switcher, see "XVS-9000/ 8000/7000/6000 System Configuration Comparison" (page 523). For details about restrictions for 4K format, see "4K Format Restrictions" (page 525). • An image effect cannot be set when using a background DME wipe. • To use the image effect function, assignment of the [IMAGE] button for the target button row for operation to the cross-point pad is required in the Setup menu (see page 433). • Setting an image effect introduces a one-frame delay in the video. This section describes setting an image effect on the background A bus on the M/E-1 bank as an example. Assigning a DME to a background bus Note Only one DME channel can be used on each background bus. 1 Open the M/E-1 >Misc >Image Effect menu (1172). 2 In the group, select [Bkgd A]. To set background B bus, select [Bkgd B]. 3 In the group, select the DME channel (DME1 to DME4) to be used. The lit colors of [DME1] to [DME4] indicate the DME assignment. Lit green: DME assigned to the currently selected bus Lit amber: DME assigned to another bus or key Not lit: Unassigned DME To select a DME being used by another bus/key Press [Override], turning it on, then select a DME channel that is lit amber. The selected DME channel becomes available, and the button is lit green. Setting an image effect Notes • The DME effect to use in the image effect must be configured for the target DME channel for operation beforehand. • In flip-flop mode, interchanging the background A bus and B bus signals also interchanges their image effect settings at the same time. • If an image effect is set, the number of keys that can simultaneously use a DME (including DME wipes) on an M/E bank is as follows. Key to which Image effect Number of keys to which DME effects setting DME effects can be are applied applied simultaneously Keys 1 to 4 No setting 2 Background A 1 or B Background A 0 and B Keys 5 to 8 - 2 When the signal format is 3840×2160P 2SI and the image effect is not set, DME effects can be used on either key 1 or key 2. 1 On the cross-point control block, press the [IMAGE] button in the cross-point pad, turning it on. Use the [IMAGE] button for the button row assigned with the background A bus. 2 Select the signal on the background A bus. The signal with the DME effect set beforehand is output. 195
