Mask Draw Tablet Installation

The Mask Draw feature (requiring version 5.2 software and new Frame Store and
Mask Store hardware) allows you to use a graphics tablet (connected to the
switcher Control Panel) to customize existing masks or to create new ones.

Using the

Force Mask

mode, you can add to a key, or using the

Inhibit Mask

mode,

you can subtract from a key.

For example, one use of Mask Draw is the ability to draw an irregularly shaped
“garbage mask.” Draw a custom-shaped mask around an object using Force Mask,
and turn “foreground” on. Use this tool instead of keying the object out.

NOTE:

For the Model 2200, mask draw requires the new Frame Store module (064814-

04). The Mask Draw feature works with the Model 2200 by feeding the mask into the key
channel.

For the Model 4000, mask draw requires the new Mask Store Option for full functionality,
or the new Frame Store module for Mask Store using the key channel.
