Cross-point button numbers
The 12 buttons are numbered 1, 2, ... 11, 12.
While the [SHIFT] button is held down,
these switch to numbers 13 to 24, or
alternatively, every time the button is
pressed, switching is made between
numbers 1 to 12 and 13 to 24.
When the 12th button is used as a [SHIFT]
button, switch is made between numbers 1
to 11 and 12 to 22.
Both the assignment of the 12th button to a
[SHIFT] button and the selection of the
button operation mode can be done in a
Setup menu.
Assigning signals to button
You can assign a signal to each button using
the Setup menu.
This assignment is common to the cross-
point buttons in the M/E-1 and PGM/PST
banks, and the auxiliary bus control block.
According to the settings made in the menu,
the video and key signals are assigned to the
cross-point buttons in pairs.
You can also make separate signal
assignments for each operating control
block.
Visual indications on cross-point
buttons
The currently selected button in a row (i.e.
the last button pressed) lights amber or red.
Amber (“low tally”): The signal selected
on the bus does not form part of the
program output from the switcher.
Red (“high tally”): The signal selected on
the bus forms part of the program
output from the switcher.
b Source name displays
These show the names of the signals which
can be selected on the cross-point buttons,
in two or four characters, or in auto mode.
While the [SHIFT] button or the [SHIFT]
button assigned to the column of cross-
point buttons is enabled, the source name of
the signal assigned to the column of cross-
point buttons in shift mode appears. You
can select green, orange, or yellow for the
background color of the source name
display, for each source separately. You can
set the source name display mode and
background color in a Setup menu.
c Key row delegation buttons
These buttons assign buses to the key row.
d XPT (cross-point) HOLD buttons
Turning one of these buttons on enables
you to recall a keyframe or snapshot while
keeping the current cross-point selection
unchanged.
When the [XPT HOLD] button is on, then
the operation is as follows, depending on
the setting in the Setup menu.
This function is valid for the background A
and B rows.
When the panel setup is “Normal”:The
operation is as follows, depending on
the setting in switcher setup.
Key Disable: The snapshot or
keyframe is recalled without changing
the current key settings.

recalled without changing the current
cross-point selection.
When the panel setup is “Protect”: The
cross-point settings cannot be changed
by pressing panel buttons.
e SHIFT button
When this button is enabled, either the
source name displays show the shifted
signal names, or the shifted signals for all
buses in this M/E (P/P) bank are enabled.
You can select either mode in a Setup
menu.
Each press of the button toggles between
the enabled and disabled states.
Using a Setup menu operation, you can also
