Opening transitions and closing Live Layers
When transitioning live layers, depending on how many scalers are in use, the STE200 TAKE function will act in
one of 3 different ways when transitioning the Next Preset (Preview) to the Current Preset (Main):
• Take 1- shot: Case #1
- There are enough scalers for making a transition
- All inputs are locked on to scalers
- There are no contraints for closing before the Take
- All opening and closing transitions can be performed simultaneously.
• Take 2- shot: Case #2
- There are enough scalers for making a transition
- All inputs are locked on to scalers before the Take
- There are no constraints for closing during the Take
- All the necessary closing transitions are performed to free occupied scalers and then the STE200 performs all
openings.
• Take sequenced- shot: Case #3
- There are not enough scalers for making a transition
- All inputs are not locked on to scalers
- All the necessary closing transitions are performed to free occupied scalers. The STE200 locks on to new sources
and performs all openings.
