OutX@•InX!•RGB]

Select video input X!to the X@output.

2*5&

Out2•In5•RGB]

Input 5 video only selected to the preview output.

Select audio only

X@*X!$

OutX@•InX!•Aud]

Select audio input X!to the X@output.

Transition effects

NThe function and variables associated with the various Effect commands (4*1#, 4*2#, 4*3#, and 4*4#) differ, depending on the effect selected.

Dissolve effect and duration

NThe “nnn” and “n” variables in the dissolve effect and duration responses below have no meaning.

Although they look similar, the set dissolve effect command (4*1*#) and set dissolve duration command (4*1*X##) must be sent separately for them to make the desired change.

Set the dissolve effect

4*1*#

4*1*#

Eff1*X#*nnn*1*n]

Set the switching effect to dissolve for “take”

 

 

 

 

operations.

NThe set dissolve command (4*1*#) cannot include the duration (X#) value). The duration can be added in a separate command (see below). The command does not work without the trailing asterisk (4*1*#).

Set dissolve duration

4*1*X##

4*1*X##

Eff1*X#*nnn*X$*n]

Set the dissolve duration to X#.

NThe set dissolve duration command (4*1*X##) must include the leading “1” variable to specify that the X#value is to be applied to the dissolve effect.

If a different effect is selected (an effect button other than Dissolve is lit on the front panel), this command sets the duration, but does not select the dissolve effect.

Example:

4*1*25#

 

4*1*25#

Eff1*025*nnn*1*n]

Set the dissolve switching effect duration

 

 

 

 

 

 

to 2.5 seconds. In this example, the “1” in the

 

 

 

 

 

 

response indicates that dissolve is the selected

 

 

 

 

 

 

effect.
