Effects Send provides a method of integrating digital effects 
devices into the switcher mix/effects system. Up to two send 
channels can be used to route the video and key from an M/E to 
and from an external digital effects system.

Using software version 5.3 and later, the Frame Store option takes 
the output of an M/E Keyer, sends it to the Frame Store module, 
then returns the output of the Frame Store to the Mix/Wipe circuit 
of the same M/E in the switcher. This provides the effect of 
inserting the Frame Store right into the M/E, between the Keyer 
and the Mix/Wipe systems.

Look ahead preview processing is provided for both M/Es with 
this option. Submodules mount on the M/E 1 and M/E 2
Mix/Wipe Modules.

The Tally Relay Frame provides external tally outputs that reflect 
the switcher status. A rear-panel interconnect board provides the 
relay contacts on two connectors for on-air Tally A and on-air Tally 
B. The frame can hold up to three Tally Modules. Pinouts for the 
Tally connectors are given in the Installation section of the Model 
2200 Installation and Service manual.
