Smart Vu LE Overview
The Smart Vu LE front panel is comprised of several sections, each carefully labeled and self explanatory, corresponding to all of the machine’s versatile functions.
The STANDBY button (1) will allow users to turn the device on and off once the main outlet switch (11) is turned on. The menu screen (2), Control section (3), and menu scroll knob (4) will give users access to the
Smart Vu LE menu. The Input Selection section (5), determines which of the 6 available input sources will be
used. The CUT and FADE buttons (6 and 7), are front panel shortcuts to the transitions available in the Layer menu of the Smart Vu LE. The FREEZE button (8) allows users to take a snapshot of the displayed image, and the PRESET button (9) is a shortcut to the Smart Vu LE menu Presets function. The TAKE button (10) of the Smart Vu LE will let you take a selected source to the Main output. The rear panel of the Smart Vu LE will let you connect all of your input sources and outputs to the device. Plug universal analog sources (14) or DVI-I sources (15), audio inputs and outputs (17 and 18), and a remote controller to the IP/LAN connector (13) of your Smart Vu LE.
WORKING WITH THE SMART VU LE
Setting up the Smar tVu LE
The following setup is an example of a typical Smart Vu LE conguration for an event or roadshow, but can of course be modied according to your specic needs:
Connect all of your sources (PC, video camera, streaming server, DVD player...) to the appropriate input connectors at the rear of the unit (see “The SmartVu LE rear panel” into the User Manual).
Connect your main output to the video projector for audience viewing, and your preview output to a monitor for preview purposes (see “Connecting the SmartVu LE”, into the User Manual). Turn all input and output devices on.
Connect the supplied AC power cord to the unit, then connect the other end of the cord to a grounded AC outlet. Power up the SmartVu LE by pressing the I/0 button at the rear of the unit, and wait for the menu to run its startup sequence. The unit is on and ready to function when the System Menu appears on your VFD screen.
