jLb=O=`çåíêçä=çå=íÜÉ=cpkJNRM
M/E 2 control can be enabled or disabled on the FSN-150 using the M/E2 CTRL button in
the
Custom Control Section. When M/E 2 control is enabled on the FSN-150, you have
complete access to more creative switcher “looks,” including the use of five keyers, up to
four layers of DVE channels, advanced re-entry effects, and complete storage and recall of
M/E 2 effects using the memory system.
S Prerequisites
~ Ensure that you are familiar with the Custom Control Section. In
Chapter 3, refer to the “
Custom Control Section” heading on page 93.
Use the following steps to use M/E 2 on the FSN-150:
1. Before using M/E 2 in production:
a. Use the {M/E Order} function on the Other Setup Menu to select the
priority of M/E 2 in the switcher’s flow of video. In Chapter 5, refer to the
“
Other Setup Menu” heading on page 253 for details.
b. Per the requirements of your production, map M/E 1 and M/E 2 re-entry
crosspoints to the panel. By default, the M/E 1 re-entry crosspoint is
mapped to the
M/E button in the PGM bank, but you must manually map
additional re-entry crosspoints as required. In Chapter 6, refer to the
“
Button Mapping” heading on page 297 for mapping instructions.
c. Per the requirements of your production, assign DVE channels to keyers
in M/E 2 as required. In Chapter 8, refer to the “
Assigning DVE
Channels to Keyers” section on page 389 for instructions.
2. Press the M/E2 CTRL button in the Custom Control Section to enable M/E 2
control. The
Custom Control button lights solid when control is enabled.
~ All Programmable Displays on the M/E turn orange for easy
identification of M/E 2.
~ M/E 2 functionality is now available for use in the normal manner,
including keys, DVE assignments, and all memory register storage and
recall functions.
3. Press the M/E2 CTRL button again to disable M/E 2 control. The Custom
Control button turns off, and all Programmable Displays on the M/E turn green.
Important
When M/E 2 control is off, it simply means that the bank’s
buttons are not physically on the FSN-150 panel. You still
have the ability to recall all stored M/E 2 memory registers in
the normal manner.
