NO  OBJECTS  FILLED  WITH  LIQUIDS,  SUCH 
AS  VASES,  SHALL  BE  PLACED  ON  THE 
APPARATUS.
CAUTION:TO  REDUCE  THE  RISK  OF  FIRE  OR  SHOCK 
HAZARD  AND  ANNOYING  INTERFERENCE, 
USE  THE  RECOMMENDED  ACCESSORIES 
ONLY.
FCC Note:
This  equipment  has  been  tested  and  found 
to  comply  with  the  limits  for  a  class  A  digital 
device,  pursuant  to  Par t  15  of  the  FCC  Rules.  
These  limits  are  designed  to  provide  reasonable 
protection  against  har mful  interference  when 
the  equipment  is  operated  in  a  commercial 
environment.    This  equipment  generates,  uses, 
and  can  radiate  radio  frequency  energy,  and 
if  not  installed  and  used  in  accordance  with 
the  instr uction  manual,  may  cause  har mful 
interference  to  radio  communications.    Operation 
of  this  equipment  in  a  residential  area  is  likely  to 
cause harmful interference in which case the user 
will  be  required  to  correct  the  interference  at  his 
own expense.
Warning:
To   a s s u r e   c o n t i nu e d   F C C   e m i s s i o n   l i m i t 
compliance,  the  user  must  use  only  shielded 
interface cables when connecting to external units.  
Also,  any  unauthorized  changes  or  modifications 
to this equipment could void the user’s authority to 
operate it.
CAUTION:In  order  to  maintain  adequate  ventilation,  do 
not  install  or  place  this  unit  in  a  bookcase, 
built-in  cabinet  or  any  other  confined  space. 
To  prevent  risk  of  electric  shock  or  fire  hazard 
due  to  overheating,  ensure  that  cur tains 
and  any  other  materials  do  not  obstruct  the 
ventilation.
The  socket  outlet  shall  be  installed  near  the 
equipment and easily accessible or the mains plug 
or a power switch shall remain readily operable.
A  war ning  that  an  apparatus  with  CLASS  I 
construction  shall  be  connected  to  a  MAINS 
socket outlet with a protective earthing connection.
WARNING:
  THIS APPARATUS MUST BE EARTHED
    To ensure safe operation, the three-pin plug must 
be  inserted  only  into  a  standard  three-pin  power 
point  which  is  effectively  earthed  through  the 
normal household wiring.
 

  Extension cords used with the apparatus must have   
three  cores  and  be  correctly  wired  to  provide 
connection to the earth.  Wrongly wired extension 
cords are a major cause of fatalities.
 

  The fact that the apparatus operates satisfactorily 
does  not  imply  that  the  power  point  is  earthed  or 
that  the  installation  is  completely  safe.  For  your 
safety,  if  you  are  in  any  doubt  about  the  effective 
earthing  of  the  power  point,  please  consult  a 
qualified electrician.

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, enab\
ling 
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.

Precautions for use
 Handle carefully.
   Do not drop the product, or subject it to strong shock or vibration.  
Do not carry or move the product by the fader lever. This is important to prevent trouble.
 Use the product in an ambient temperature of 32 °F to 104 °F (0 °C to 40\
 °C).
    Avoid using the product at a cold place below 32 °F (0 °C) or at a hot place above 104 °F (40 °C) because 
extremely low or high temperature will adversely affect the parts inside.
 Power off before connecting or disconnecting cables.
  Before plugging or unplugging the cables, be sure to switch power off.
 Avoid humidity and dust.
   Avoid using the product at a humid, dusty place because much humidity and dust will cause damage to the 
parts inside.
 Maintenance
    Wipe the product using a dry cloth. To remove stubborn dirt, dip a cloth into a diluted solution of kitchen 
detergent (neutral), wring it out well, and wipe the product gently. Then, after wiping the product with a moist 
cloth, wipe it again with a dry cloth.
  • Avoid using benzine, paint thinners and other volatile fluids.
• If a chemical cleaning cloth is to be used, carefully read through \
the precautions for its use.
Caution
  
Precaution to be observed during production
    This product’s image switching and image effect functions can be used to produce images which flicker rapidly 
or images which change rapidly.
 

  However, bear in mind when using these functions in production that the kinds o\
f images produced may have 
an adverse effect on the viewer’s physical well-being.
 Handling the optional boards
    Be absolutely sure to turn off the power of the product before installing or removing any of the optional boards.
    Furthermore, when installing or removing the optional boards, take care not to hurt yourself on the edges and 
metal parts of the boards.
 When the product is to be discarded
    When the product is to be discarded at the end of its service life, ask a specialized contractor to dispose of it 
properly in order to protect the environment.
 Concerning the consumable parts
Cooling fan:
    This is a consumable part. As a general rule, replace it every 5 years or so (when the unit has been 
operated for 15 hours a day).
Power supply unit: 
 

  This is a consumable part. As a general rule, replace it every 5 years or so (when the unit has been 
operated for 15 hours a day).
The period when the consumable parts need to be replaced will differ depending on the operating conditions.
When the time comes to replace one of these parts, be absolutely sure to ask your dealer to do the job.
