3Press CUT/BACKGROUND to set the Color Channel as the Current source. You now have a black screen on the Program monitor.

4Press NEXT/A to set Channel A as the Next source.

5Enter SHIFT+4 to set the Preview monitor to Preview Next mode. You’re now ready to create and transition to the first still image.

6Enter SHIFT+FREEZE to create a frozen image on the Next channel.

7Enter 1, OK, PLAY to dissolve from black to the first frozen image.

The NEXT and CURRENT sources swap positions. You’re now ready to select the second still image.
