About the Screen Modes
The XS-1HD’s video output has three screen modes:
matrix, split, and switcher.
Matrix mode (next page)
Use the cross-point buttons to switch the combination
of four inputs and four outputs, and output the video.
The internal frame synchronizer allows seamless
video switching.
Split mode (p. 14)
Up to four screens of the video selected by the cross-
point buttons can be layer-composited and output.
The video of XPT 1 can also be key-composited.
Switcher mode (p. 15)
The video of the PGM side (XPT3 row) is always
output. The PST side (XPT4 row) selects the preset
video (the video that will be output next).
Use the [AUTO] button or operate the video fader to
switch the video.
* The VIDEO OUTPUT 4 connector outputs a multi-view
that lets you check the input video channels 1–4.
