Before use

 Overview 
This unit is a 1 ME digital video switcher which supports a
multiple number of HD and SD formats.
Despite its compact size, it comes with four SDI inputs, one
DVI-D input, two SDI outputs and one DVI-D output.
In addition to its background transition capabilities that use
the cut, mix and wipe functions, one keyer channel and one
PinP channel are provided to enable video productions in a
wide variety of forms.
Furthermore, using the multi view display settings, the
screen of a monitor can be split into a number of sections
to accommodate up to ten images, enabling the number of
monitors to be reduced and a space-saving system to be
configured at low cost.
By means of the IP connection, an operating environment
where the unit is tied in with the AW-HE50 HD integrated
camera and AW-RP50 remote camera controller is achieved.
