Multi Program 2
  Chapt
• A maximum of eight re-entry stages are possible, with the final output having 
a delay of 4H.
• The selection order of re-entry signals affects the number of lines by which 
the output signal is lowered. 
• If a delay occurs in the image, even when the through mode is set, the 
ancillary data does not pas through. 
• For example, it is possible to select the re-entry of M/E-1 main on M/E-1 
main. 
Restrictions on Mutual Re-entry When Using Multi Program 2
The snapshot function is affected by this re-entry function.
When the [MP2 Free Re-Entry] button is On, and any of the switcher banks are 
in Multi Program 2 mode, then the following restrictions apply.
If you save and recall snapshots simultaneously with more than one region 
specified, the recorded state is played back in the order of precedence of 
regions (M/E-1 >M/E-2 >M/E-3 >P/P). Therefore, if you save and recall 
snapshots with more than one region specified, the cross-point settings may not 
be recalled correctly.
To recall the snapshots correctly, press the cross-point button before recalling 
the snapshots, to select a signal other than the re-entry signal, then recall the 
snapshots.
Functions Added in Multi Program 2 Mode
• You can set video processing for the utility 3 bus signal.
• In the control panel and DCU GPI input settings and switcher GPI link 
settings, the actions that can be selected now also include “Sub Cut” and 
“Sub Auto Trans.”
• A switcher GPI link can now be set also for the utility 3 bus.
• To the macro event configuration parameters and macro attachment settings, 
“Main & Sub” and “Sub” have been added.
• For cross-point button link settings, M/E-1 to M/E-3, and P/P “Sub 
Program,” “Sub Preset,” and “Sub Trans PGM” have been added to the link 
source bus.
• Snapshot attributes can now be set independently for main and sub.
• There are additional menus for sub which can be recalled by pressing a 
button twice.
• You can set [MP2 Auto Correct] to On or Off in the Effect menu or Snapshot 
menu. When this is set to On, for example, copy destination and source data 
is automatically recognized as main or sub, and the data interchanged.
