Video Outputs
Any source in the switcher can be routed to one of the outputs. Each output is assigned to an XPression framebuffer.
Video Output Setup
You can assign a video source or bus to an output and each output is assigned to an XPression framebuffer.

Setup
Video input and output setup, networking, and signalling setup.
- Network Setup
  The switcher runs as a service on the Graphite CPC computer.
- Video Inputs
  External video sources come into the switcher through XPression or directly through an NDI® stream, and internal sources are generated internally from the switcher.
- Video Outputs
  Any source in the switcher can be routed to one of the outputs. Each output is assigned to an XPression framebuffer.
  - Video Output Setup
    You can assign a video source or bus to an output and each output is assigned to an XPression framebuffer.
    - To Set up a Video Output
      Assign video sources or buses to the output and the output to a framebuffer. Some outputs are fixed to a specific video signal.
  - FlexiClean Clean Feed
    FlexiClean clean feed provides a second program output per ME that is derived from a different point in the video layering than the standard program output. The clean feed can be set to come before any key in the video layering for an ME. This allows you to remove particular keys without affecting the primary program output.
  - On-Air Setting
    Some switcher outputs can be set to be considered on-air or not. This allows you to set which outputs are tallied, how resource allocation is divided, and how the Roll Clip feature works.
- MultiViewer
  The MultiViewer allows you to view multiple video sources from a single output. Video inputs or outputs on the switcher, including Program and Preview, can be assigned to any box on the MultiViewer.
- Personality
  Personality settings allow you to configure how you interact with the control panel and switcher, as well as how the buttons on the control panel appear. All of these settings are stored in the Personality register.
- ViewControl
  The ViewControl interface through DashBoard allows you to coordinate the control over the Carbonite switcher and other devices through custom controls and transitions.
- MultiPanel
  Each frame supports up to 3 independent control connections (Main, Satellite 1, Satellite 2). Each connection can be from a control panel, DashBoard, or a combination of the two. Add devices on the same control connection mirror each other.
- MIDI Controller
  The MIDI controller is used to control the RAVE audio mixer. The controller connects to the switcher through DashBoard.

Video Output Setup

You can assign a video source or bus to an output and each output is assigned to an XPression framebuffer.

Switcher outputs are assigned to XPression Virtual Outputs from DashBoard. You must set up the Virtual Output on XPression before it is available to the switcher. The Virtual Outputs can be added from the Inputs/Outputs tab on the Hardware Setup window (Edit > Hardware Setup). Refer to the documentation that came with your XPression system for information on setting up Virtual Outputs.
