The five next transition buttons –

,

, 

,

, 

and

 – select the output signals that will change 

during the next transition.

An 

 indicator located beneath each next transition button is lit 

when the associated signal is an active part of the M/E output in 
layered mode.

In Standard Mode, only the

,

,

, and 

next transition buttons and the 

 and 

indicators 

below the 

buttons are functional.  (The

 button and 

the 

 indicators below the

 buttons are not functional and 

the 

indicator is not lit.)

The transition can affect Background only, Key 1 only, Key 2 only, 
or any combination of those. Multiple-layer transitions are 
selected by simultaneously pressing more than one button.

Pressing

 selects background video to change during the 

next transition. That is, the background video output of the M/E 
will change from the source selected on the A Background bus to 
the source selected on the B Background bus.

At the end of the transition, the inputs selected on the back-
ground buses will interchange, or “flip-flop.” The “new video” on 
the B Background bus will transfer to the A Back-ground bus, and 
the “old video” on the A Background bus will transfer to the B 
Background bus.
