About the operation mode for video transitions
There are two operation modes for switching the video on the
PGM/A bus and PST/B bus: the “PGM/PST mode” and the “A/B mode.”
* With the factory settings, the operation mode is set to A/B mode.
Mode Explanation
A/B
When the video fader is operated, the video at the
bus position toward which the video fader is flipped
always becomes the final output.
When the [CUT] or [AUTO] button is operated, the
video on the A bus and the video on the B bus
become the final output in alternation.
PGM/PST
The video on the PGM bus is always the final output.
The video on the PST bus is preset video (the video to
be output next).
Operating the video fader or the [CUT] or [AUTO]
button makes the final video output and the preset
video change places.
Switching in the A/B Mode
The video at the end to which the video fader is flipped is always the
final output.
1. Flip the video fader all the way
upward or downward.
2. Press a Cross-point [1]–[8] button
at the end to which the video
fader is not flipped to select the
preset video (the video to output
next).

The preset video appears in the PVW section of the monitor.

transition effect.
