Auto transition The transition from the current video to the new video is executed automatically at a constant rate, using the transition effect selected as the transition type. You can set the transition rate in advance (see page 91). type from the current video to the new video. Moving the fader lever from one end of its travel to the other completes the transition. To execute a manual transition with the transition control block fader lever, use the following procedure. To execute the transition completely Move the lever over the full range of its travel. To pause a partly executed transition Stop moving the fader lever. To resume a paused transition Resume moving the fader lever. Auto/Manual Transition Combination Using the [AUTO TRANS] button, the [CUT] button, and the fader lever, use the following procedures. CUT button AUTO TRANS button Fader lever Transition control block To execute a transition, use the following procedure in the transition control block. To switch video instantaneously Press the [CUT] button. To switch video gradually Press the [AUTO TRNS] button. This executes the transition at the preset transition rate.

Non-Sync State If the fader lever is in an intermediate position when a transition is completed as an auto transition, then the lever position no longer agrees with the transition state. This is termed non-sync state. In non-sync state, the position from which a normal syncstate fader lever transition can be resumed is indicated by which of the two transition indicator LEDs (top, bottom, or both ends) are lit or flashing. • Moving the fader lever toward the position of the lit/ flashing LEDs does not execute a transition, but when the fader lever reaches the end position the non-sync 95
