Use the [BKGD] and [KEY] switches in the transition area to select the bus signals for which the transition is to be executed. If the switches have been pressed at the same time, both switches are selected. The indicator of a selected switch lights in amber.

The switches cannot be selected while a transition is being executed or suspended.

Use the [MIX] and [WIPE] switches in the transition area to select the background transition mode. Select one of these switches, and the indicator of the selected switch lights in amber.

MIX always applies to key transitions whichever switch has been selected.

Operate the fader lever to execute transitions manually.

If the fader lever has been operated during auto transition, auto transition will be switched to manual operation as soon as the fader position overtakes the amount of the transition being executed.

The bus tally LEDs on the left of the fader lever indicate the program bus output status.

Top LED only lights:
