Changing the System settings

Using Lock mode

Lock mode lets you obtain a more stable image, which will prevent the image from distorting. This mode restricts operations that might cause the image to distort (such as input switching).

While holding down the Superimpose button, turn on the power.

The words “LOCK MODE” will appear in the output image of video output 2 (composite).

Lock mode restricts the following operations.

•You can’t use the Input Select, Mix, Or Wipe/P in P buttons unless the video fader is all the way to “A” or “B”

•If the Superimpose button is blinking, pressing input 4 will not switch the image

*To return to original mode

Once again turn on the power while holding down the Superimpose button.

Switching between NTSC and PAL

The V-1 can be switched to support either NTSC or PAL format signals. If you are using the V-1 in areas that use other format video (such as foreign country), switch the setting as described below.

While holding down the Output button and the Mix button, turn on the power.

The characters “PAL” or “NTSC” that switched will appear in the output image of video output 2 (composite). The next time you power up the V-1, it will start up in the mode.

*To return to original mode

Once again turn on the power while holding down the Output button and Mix button.

You can operate the transition pattern knob even in Lock mode. However, the image may distort if you operate this knob while using P in P or Wipe. To avoid distortion, move the video fader so that a green video fader indicator is lit, and then operate the transition pattern knob.

NTSC and PAL

NTSC is the color television broadcast standard used in areas such as North America and Japan.

PAL is the broadcast standard used in Europe and Southeast Asia.
