Pattern limit You can specify the transition execution limit of a DME wipe. For details, see "Pattern Limit" (page 106). Note In an independent key transition, a pattern limit cannot be used. DME wipe restrictions Relationship with processed keys • In DME wipes and processed keys, only enabled DME channels on the switcher bank can be used. When using a DME in a processed key, an available DME channel is automatically assigned for DME wipes. If all DME channels are in use, then a DME wipe cannot be used. For details about setting DME channels, see "Setting a DME channel to use in a switcher bank" (page 390). • DME wipes and resizer DME wipes cannot be used on keys that use a DME in a processed key. Relationship with the image effect function It is not possible to use background DME wipes when the image effect function is set. Relationship with resizers • DME wipes and resizer DME wipes cannot be used on keys with a resizer enabled. • When a dual resizer effect is set on either of the two keys, DME wipes and resizer DME wipes cannot be used on the other key. Number of DME channels that can be used simultaneously DMEs can be used in up to two locations simultaneously on a single switcher bank (processed key with DME wipe). The number of DME channels that can be used on a key depends on the DME wipe pattern execution mode, as given below. When not using a DME wipe: One DME channel each on two keys, or one to four DME channels on a single key can be used. When using a 1-channel mode DME wipe: One DME channel on a single key only can be used. When using a 2-channel mode or 3-channel mode DME wipe: DMEs cannot be used on keys. Notes • In multi program 2 mode, DMEs can be used in up to two locations (main and sub). • When M/E split is enabled, one DME channel can be used on each of the two sub blocks. 164
