Pressing DSK 1 any DSK 2 of the next transition buttons will clear selection of all others. When selecting the elements of<br />

the next transition, the switcher operator should look at the preview output because it provides an accurate<br />

representation of what the program output will look like after the transition is completed. When only the<br />

BKGD button is selected, a transition from the current source on the program bus to the source selected on<br />

the preview bus will occur.<br />

DSK TIE<br />

The DSK TIE button will enable the DSK on the preview output, along with the next transition effects, and tie<br />

it to the main transition control so that the DSK can be taken to air with the next transition.<br />

Because the tied downstream keyer is now tied to the main transition, the transition will happen at the rate<br />

specified in the transition rate display of the transition control block. When the DSK is tied, the signal routing<br />

to the clean feed 1 is unaffected.
