Description
This is a 1 ME digital video switcher which supports a multiple number of HD and SD formats.
Despite its compact dimensions, the video switcher comes standard with 4 input connectors and can support
8 input connectors when an option board is used.
It also has a multi view display function that allows split-screen display with up to 10 screens.
It is capable of providing transitions (wipe, mix and DVE) as video effects, and keyer (luminance keys and chroma
keys), DSK and PinP specialized hardware is provided as a standard feature to enable video productions in many
different forms.
The unit also supports SD memory cards so still image data (BMP, JPEG) can be imported from SD memory
cards into the unit’s frame memories for use as background images or key materials.
Features
Compact design, wide variety of input/output signals
As a standard feature, the HD and SD-SDI formats are supported for the input and output signals. If an optional
board is added, HD/SD analog component, DVI-I and analog composite (input only) signals can also be
accommodated.
The input optional board contains an up-converter.
The SDI output board (option) also contains a down-converter.
Under the standard specifications, there are four SDI lines for the input signals, and this number can be
optionally increased by the user up to eight lines (supported by the optional board). Similarly, there are three
SDI lines for the output signals under the standard specifications, and this number can be optionally increased
by the user to five lines (PGM, PVW, AUX, KEYOUT and multi view display).
Multiple formats supported
Both HD formats (1080/59.94i, 1080/50i, 720/59.94p and 720/50p) and SD formats (480/59.94i and 576/50i) as
well as the DVI-I format are supported for the signals.
Multi view display function
This unit enables up to 10 lines of program video (PGM), preview video (PVW) and input video signals to be
displayed altogether on a single screen at the same time.
Frame synchronizer system and external synchronization system supported
A high-performance 10-bit frame synchronizer is incorporated for all the inputs, and asynchronous video
signals can be input. By using the black burst (BB) output, it is possible to construct a system referenced to the
synchronization of the switcher.
A genlock function is provided, and an external synchronization system using external sync signals (BB or TRI
signals) as a reference are also supported.
Many different effect functions incorporated
Along with the standard wipe, mix and cut functions, the unit can provide size reduction, slide and other DVE
transitions.
The unit comes with luminance keys and chroma keys are provided as keyers as well as specialized hardware
in the form of the DSK (downstream key) and PinP (picture in picture) functions as a standard option, enabling
video productions in many different forms.
SD memory cards supported
Still image data (BMP, JPEG) can be imported from SD memory cards into the unit’s frame memories for use as
background images or key materials. Conversely, the images or setting data in the unit’s frame memories can be
stored on the SD memory cards.
Simple operations
Live transmissions can be delivered speedily thanks to the simple panel layout which enables the various
functions to be operated directly.
Presetting and other similar operations are performed using menus on the unit’s LCD screen or in the form of on-
screen displays (OSD) which appear an external monitor.

Lum (luminance key/self key):
This is for creating the key signals from the luminance component or luminance and chroma component
of the key fill signal.
Linear (linear key/EXT key):
This is for creating the key signals from the luminance component of the key source signal.
It is used when the key source signal and key fill signal are different.
Chroma (chroma key/self key):
This is for creating the key signals using a specific hue of the key fill signal as the reference.
Full (full key/self key):
This is for creating the key signals using the images on the full screen as the key source signals.
PinP combinations are possible in conjunction with the flying key. See 3-3-9.
Since the luminance and chroma keys are operated as self keys, the key fill signals are used as the key source
signals. For the full key, the images on the full screen are used as the key source signals.
When the luminance key, chroma key or full key has been selected as the key type, the key signals will remain
unchanged even when the key source signals are switched.
Furthermore, when “Lum”, “Chroma” or “Full” is selected, the KEY button in the crosspoint area changes to
lighting in amber (key fill bus selection status).
When using the linear key, use material with a black background and white characters or shape to be combined
by the key as the key source signal. Material which is not black and white may not be combined clearly.
Material with a white background and black characters, etc. can be reversed using the key invert function for
use.
4 When the luminance key has been selected, the chroma component can be included in the generation of the
key signals in view of the self key application. (This does not apply to the linear key.)
Turn [F3], and select the setting using the LumKey item.
ChrmOn: In addition to the luminance component, the chroma component is also taken into account in the
generation of the key signals.
This is the setting for using a color with a low luminance component for the key signals (such as
when defining blue characters).
ChrmOff: The key signals are generated from only the luminance component.
5 Turn [F4] to select the fill type using the Fill item.
Bus: The bus signal is used for the key fill signal.
Matte: The internal fill matte is used for the key fill signal.

The signal for the chroma key is created using a specific color tone
as a reference.
For instance, the background color is detected from the image of a
person who is standing in front of a specific background color, the
key signal is created, and a different background is combined.
This unit employs an area system which is designated using a
rectangular frame. The color of the pixels inside the area which
have been averaged is used as the reference color of the chroma
key (key reference), and the maximum deviation from the average
value is used as the radius of the chroma key oval. Chroma keys
faithful to the chroma space sample (area C in the figure) can be
generated.

Lum (luminance key/self key):
This is for creating the key signals from the luminance component of the key fill signal.
Linear (linear key/EXT key):
This is for creating the key signals from the luminance component of the key source signal.
It is used when the key source signal and key fill signal are different.
Since the luminance key is operated as a self key, the key fill signals are used as the key source signals.
When the luminance key has been selected as the downstream key type, the key signals will remain
unchanged even when the key source signals are switched.
Furthermore, when “Lum” is selected, the DSK button in the crosspoint area changes to lighting in amber (key
fill bus selection status).
When using the linear key, use material with a black background and white characters or shape to be combined
by the key as the key source signal.
Material which is not black and white may not be combined clearly.
Material with a white background and black characters, etc. can be reversed using the key invert function for
use.
4 Turn [F4] to select the fill type using the Fill item.
Bus: The bus signal is used for the key fill signal.

3-12. SD memory cards
The unit’s frame memory data and system data can be stored on SD memory cards.
Conversely, this data can be loaded from the SD memory cards to the unit.
Frame memory data (still image data):
The unit supports 24-bit (uncompressed) BMP (bitmap) and JPEG (baseline) is the only file formats.
JPEG format files can be loaded, but they become BMP format files when they are stored from the unit to the
SD memory card.
This unit cannot resize the images so resize them appropriately using another device such as a personal
computer before saving them on the SD memory card.

BMP files:
If the sizes are different, the center of the images will be lined up.
If the image is large, it will be cropped.
If the image is small, the area around it will be filled in with a black border.
JPEG files:
Images in the sizes listed in “Applicable sizes” above can be loaded.
The pixels of images in SD format are not square, so the aspect ratio will be different when the images are
displayed on the computer and when they are imported into frame memory (with NTSC format, they will be
vertically long).
To keep the images true to their actual proportions, make sure the original size is 720540 pixels. If the
images are in NTSC format, use images shrunk to 720487 pixels. If the images are in PAL format, use
images enlarged to 720576 pixels.
System data:
The “system data” refers to all the data stored in the unit with the exception of the date, time and network
settings and of the still image data. The extension used for the system data files is “hs4”.
SD memory card handling precautions
Do NOT eject the SD memory card while the SD memory card access LED is lighted.
When an SD memory card is ejected while the SD memory card access LED is lighted, the transition of the
operation from data access to card ejection may be temporarily suspended.
In addition, the data stored on the SD memory card may be lost.
The data stored on SD memory cards may be lost as a result of misplacing the cards or performing erroneous
operations, for instance. It is recommended that valuable data be stored on a personal computer or other
device.
