Description  
This is a 1 ME digital video switcher which supports a multiple number of HD and SD formats.  
Despite its compact dimensions, the video switcher comes standard with 4 input connectors and can support  
8 input connectors when an option board is used.  
It also has a multi view display function that allows split-screen display with up to 10 screens.  
It is capable of providing transitions (wipe, mix and DVE) as video effects, and keyer (luminance keys and chroma  
keys), DSK and PinP specialized hardware is provided as a standard feature to enable video productions in many  
different forms.  
The unit also supports SD memory cards so still image data (BMP, JPEG) can be imported from SD memory  
cards into the unit’s frame memories for use as background images or key materials.  
Features  
Compact design, wide variety of input/output signals  
As a standard feature, the HD and SD-SDI formats are supported for the input and output signals. If an optional  
board is added, HD/SD analogue component, DVI-I and analogue composite (input only) signals can also be  
accommodated.  
The input optional board contains an up-converter.  
The SDI output board (option) also contains a down-converter.  
Under the standard specifications, there are four SDI lines for the input signals, and this number can be  
optionally increased by the user up to eight lines (supported by the optional board). Similarly, there are three  
SDI lines for the output signals under the standard specifications, and this number can be optionally increased  
by the user to five lines (PGM, PVW, AUX, KEYOUT and multi view display).  
Multiple formats supported  
Both HD formats (1080/ꢁ9.94i, 1080/ꢁ0i, 7ꢀ0/ꢁ9.94p and 7ꢀ0/ꢁ0p) and SD formats (480/ꢁ9.94i and ꢁ76/ꢁ0i) as  
well as the DVI-I format are supported for the signals.  
Multi view display function  
This unit enables up to 10 lines of programme video (PGM), preview video (PVW) and input video signals to be  
displayed altogether on a single screen at the same time.  
Frame synchronizer system and external synchronization system supported  
A high-performance 10-bit frame synchronizer is incorporated for all the inputs, and asynchronous video  
signals can be input. By using the black burst (BB) output, it is possible to construct a system referenced to the  
synchronization of the switcher.  
A genlock function is provided, and an external synchronization system using external sync signals (BB or TRI  
signals) as a reference are also supported.  
Many different effect functions incorporated  
Along with the standard wipe, mix and cut functions, the unit can provide size reduction, slide and other DVE  
transitions.  
The unit comes with luminance keys and chroma keys are provided as keyers as well as specialized hardware  
in the form of the DSK (downstream key) and PinP (picture in picture) functions as a standard option, enabling  
video productions in many different forms.  
SD memory cards supported  
Still image data (BMP, JPEG) can be imported from SD memory cards into the unit’s frame memories for use as  
background images or key materials. Conversely, the images or setting data in the unit’s frame memories can be  
stored on the SD memory cards.  
Simple operations  
Live transmissions can be delivered speedily thanks to the simple panel layout which enables the various  
functions to be operated directly.  
Presetting and other similar operations are performed using menus on the unit’s LCD screen or in the form of on-  
screen displays (OSD) which appear an external monitor.

Lum (luminance key/self key):  
This is for creating the key signals from the luminance component or luminance and chroma component  
of the key fill signal.  
Linear (linear key/EXT key):  
This is for creating the key signals from the luminance component of the key source signal.  
It is used when the key source signal and key fill signal are different.  
Chroma (chroma key/self key):  
This is for creating the key signals using a specific hue of the key fill signal as the reference.  
Full (full key/self key):  
This is for creating the key signals using the images on the full screen as the key source signals.  
PinP combinations are possible in conjunction with the flying key. See 3-3-9.  
Since the luminance and chroma keys are operated as self keys, the key fill signals are used as the key source  
signals. For the full key, the images on the full screen are used as the key source signals.  
When the luminance key, chroma key or full key has been selected as the key type, the key signals will remain  
unchanged even when the key source signals are switched.  
Furthermore, when “Lum”, “Chroma” or “Full” is selected, the KEY button in the crosspoint area changes to  
lighting in amber (key fill bus selection status).  
When using the linear key, use material with a black background and white characters or shape to be combined  
by the key as the key source signal. Material which is not black and white may not be combined clearly.  
Material with a white background and black characters, etc. can be reversed using the key invert function for  
use.  
4 When the luminance key has been selected, the chroma component can be included in the generation of the  
key signals in view of the self key application. (This does not apply to the linear key.)  
Turn [F3], and select the setting using the LumKey item.  
ChrmOn: In addition to the luminance component, the chroma component is also taken into account in the  
generation of the key signals.  
This is the setting for using a colour with a low luminance component for the key signals (such as  
when defining blue characters).  
ChrmOff: The key signals are generated from only the luminance component.  
5 Turn [F4] to select the fill type using the Fill item.  
Bus: The bus signal is used for the key fill signal.  
Matte: The internal fill matte is used for the key fill signal.

The signal for the chroma key is created using a specific colour  
tone as a reference.  
For instance, the background colour is detected from the image of a  
person who is standing in front of a specific background colour, the  
key signal is created, and a different background is combined.  
This unit employs an area system which is designated using a  
rectangular frame. The colour of the pixels inside the area which  
have been averaged is used as the reference colour of the chroma  
key (key reference), and the maximum deviation from the average  
value is used as the radius of the chroma key oval. Chroma keys  
faithful to the chroma space sample (area C in the figure) can be  
generated.

3-3-9. Flying key  
Using DVE effects, this key enables the key signals that have been input to be moved, expanded or contracted.  
In order for the flying key to take effect, select SL #ꢁ as the key transition.  
When the key transition is executed, the keys are combined by the key signals set using the flying key menu.  
(The transition effect is fixed at MIX.)  
Since the flying key uses DVE effects, the image is delayed by one frame.  
When the SL #ꢁ button is double-clicked, delegation to the FlyKEY menu is initiated.

PinP combinations using the flying key  
When “Full” is selected by the Type item in “3-3-1. Selecting the key type,PinP combinations are enabled using  
the flying key.  
(At this point in time, the Clip item and Gain item cannot be set on the Adjust sub menu.)  
With the full key, the image on the full screen serves as the key source signal so an edge will not be added  
unless a further step is taken.  
To add an edge, mask the key signals so that the key source signals are made smaller than the entire screen.  
For details on masking, refer to “3-3-8. Masking the key signals”.

Linear (linear key/EXT key):  
This is for creating the key signals from the luminance component of the key source signal.  
It is used when the key source signal and key fill signal are different.  
Since the luminance key is operated as a self key, the key fill signals are used as the key source signals.

unchanged even when the key source signals are switched.  
Furthermore, when “Lum” is selected, the DSK button in the crosspoint area changes to lighting in amber (key  
fill bus selection status).  
When using the linear key, use material with a black background and white characters or shape to be combined  
by the key as the key source signal.  
Material which is not black and white may not be combined clearly.  
Material with a white background and black characters, etc. can be reversed using the key invert function for  
use.

3-11. Frame memories  
Still images can be stored in the unit’s two internal frame memories for use.  
The still images are transferred to the frame memories through the AUX bus and an SD memory card.  
Conversely, the images in the frame memories can be transferred to an SD memory card.  
Images in the frame memories can be used as bus images by assigning FMEM1 and FMEMꢀ using the crosspoint  
assignment function.  
Since the images stored in the frame memories are stored in the unit’s RAM area, the image data is erased once  
the power is turned off.  
Transfer them again after the power has been turned back on.

3. Basic operations  
3-12. SD memory cards  
The unit’s frame memory data and system data can be stored on SD memory cards.  
Conversely, this data can be loaded from the SD memory cards to the unit.  
Frame memory data (still image data):  
The unit supports ꢀ4-bit (uncompressed) BMP (bitmap) and JPEG (baseline) is the only file formats.  
JPEG format files can be loaded, but they become BMP format files when they are stored from the unit to the  
SD memory card.  
This unit cannot resize the images so resize them appropriately using another device such as a personal  
computer before saving them on the SD memory card.  
<Applicable sizes>  
HD/1080i: 19ꢀ01080, HD/7ꢀ0p: 1ꢀ807ꢀ0,  
SD/NTSC: 7ꢀ0487, SD/PAL: 7ꢀ0ꢁ76  
BMP files:  
If the sizes are different, the centre of the images will be lined up.  
If the image is large, it will be cropped.  
If the image is small, the area around it will be filled in with a black border.  
JPEG files:  
Images in the sizes listed in “Applicable sizes” above can be loaded.  
The pixels of images in SD format are not square, so the aspect ratio will be different when the images are  
displayed on the computer and when they are imported into frame memory (with NTSC format, they will be  
vertically long).  
To keep the images true to their actual proportions, make sure the original size is 7ꢀ0ꢁ40 pixels. If the  
images are in NTSC format, use images shrunk to 7ꢀ0487 pixels. If the images are in PAL format, use  
images enlarged to 7ꢀ0ꢁ76 pixels.  
System data:  
The “system data” refers to all the data stored in the unit with the exception of the date, time and network  
settings and of the still image data. The extension used for the system data files is “hs4”.  
SD memory card handling precautions  
Do NOT eject the SD memory card while the SD memory card access LED is lit.  
When an SD memory card is ejected while the SD memory card access LED is lit, the transition of the  
operation from data access to card ejection may be temporarily suspended.  
In addition, the data stored on the SD memory card may be lost.  
The data stored on SD memory cards may be lost as a result of misplacing the cards or performing erroneous  
operations, for instance. It is recommended that valuable data be stored on a personal computer or other  
device.

Appendix (glossary)  
Defined below are the terms used in this manual.  
Word  
Explanation  
AB Bus system  
A bus control mode. By executing a transition, the A bus and B bus signals  
are output to the programme images alternately.  
Ancillary Data  
The auxiliary data other than the video signals which is transmitted inside  
the data stream of the video serial interface. The data superimposed on the  
vertical blanking period is referred to as the V ancillary data (VANC).  
Aspect ratio  
The ratio between the horizontal and vertical dimensions of an image or  
screen.  
It is 16:9 for the HD format and 4:3 for the SD format.  
AUX  
[Auxiliary Bus]  
A spare bus which can be switched by signals other than the main line  
output signals.  
AVDL  
A function to automatically adjust the input image signal phase to the  
horizontal synchronization reference signal phase.  
[Automatic Video Delayline]  
BB  
The black burst signal. A full-screen black level composite signal which is  
used as the reference signal for gen-lock.  
[Black burst]  
Border  
The area or margin that is added to the edge of a wipe or key.  
Its width and colour can be adjusted. The defocusing of the area around a  
border is referred to as the soft effect.  
Chroma key  
This refers to the function for creating the key signals based on the colour  
information of the video signals and combining the keys.  
Clip  
The threshold level of the luminance when key signals are created from a  
key source.  
Colour Background  
Cut  
The signals which are output from the internal colour generator and used as  
the background image.  
This refers to the effect where the display is instantly switched to the next  
image.  
Density  
A parameter which is used to adjust the density of the key signals.  
Dot by Dot  
This treats images as actual size (1) images. With PinP, it allows SD  
images to be combined with HD images with no accompanying deterioration  
in the images themselves.  
Down Converter  
This is the function that converts material in the HD format into the SD  
format.  
DSK [Downstream Key]  
DVE [Digital Video Effect]  
This refers to the key combination process which is performed at the end of  
the mix effect. The key is always combined with the foremost image.  
This refers to the transition patterns accompanying size reductions or slide  
effects.  
DVI  
A digital video interface standard.  
[Digital Visual Interface]  
DVI-I can handle both digital signals and analogue signals.  
Embedded Audio  
This refers to the audio data packets which are transferred inside the data  
stream of the video serial interface.  
Flip Flop system  
(PGM/PST system)  
A bus control mode. The signals selected by the programme bus are always  
output as the programme images. By executing a transition, the programme  
bus and preset bus signals are switched over.  
Flying Key  
This function uses DVE effects to move, expand or reduce key signals.

Appendix (glossary)  
Word  
Explanation  
Frame Memory  
A memory which can hold the video signals equivalent to one frame.  
Frame Synchronizer  
A function which matches the synchronization of non-synchronized video  
input signals.  
Freeze  
A function which continues the display of the same image, creating the  
impression that the image has been “frozen”.  
FTB [Fade to Black]
