Preview

This module is used to select whether you are viewing program or preview of a selected ME on the Preview output.

Important: This module is not available with Ultrix Acuity.
Table 1. Preview Button Functions
Button Function
ME X Allows you to select the ME to assign to the preview output.
+4 Allows you to select an ME above ME 4. When the +4 button is held, the ME 1 through ME 4 buttons become ME 5 through ME 8 buttons respectively. For example, if you want to select ME 6, press and hold the +4 button on, and press ME 2. Both the ME 2 and +4 buttons will remain lit.
SRC

Allows you to assign a specific video source to it. When the SRC button is selected, the video source that is assigned to the button is fed out of the preview. This source overrides the preview video but is not taken to air with the next transition. When the SRC button is de-selected, the video previously being fed out of the preview is restored. Press and hold the SRC button and select the new source you want to assign to the button.

This feature is only available on the Preview w/o Overlay output (PV w/o OVL).
