Please note: Reading through this manual will require concentration. Before you start reading, take time to set up all your equipment carefully, checking all connections. Then make yourself comfortable with all your equipment within easy reach. Also note: the SE-200 requires an active video signal to produce its effects. Long pauses (as you read the manual) can cause a source signal to be interrupted:

* To ensure the video signal from a playback VCR will not be interrupted as you

read the manual, simply insert a full length video cassette (at least two hours of video) and play it back. (For the purpose of learning how to use the SE-200, you may want to use a pre-recorded movie rather than one of the home videos you want to edit.)

* To ensure the video signal from a playback camcorder will not be interrupted as

you read the manual, put the camcorder into CAMERA mode, without any tape inside. The source video will be a continuous, live camcorder shot. (If there was a tape inside the camcorder, it would shut off after a few minutes of inactivity.)

1. Mode Indicator: Displays the mode you have selected (Titler, S.E.G., or Editor).

2. Infrared Sensor: Receives the infrared signal from your recording VCR's remote

control, so the SE-200 can "learn" the VCR's infrared control code if necessary. Many VCR codes are pre-programmed in the SE-200.

3. Keypad for the SE-200's Titler functions.

4. Keypad for the SE-200's Editor functions.

5. MODE key: Selects the function mode (Titler, S.E.G., or Editor).

6. AUDIO FADE Key: Activates T-Bar for manual audio fades. When LED is lit, audio

fade is active.

7. VIDEO FADE Key: Activates T-Bar for manual video fades. When LED is lit, video

fade is active.

8. MIX Key: Activates T-Bar for manual A/B dissolves. When LED is lit, mixing is active.

Note: if you have two non-synchronous video sources (as you almost certainly are),

this LED must be OFF.

9. T-Bar Control: Lets you manually control audio/video fades and A/B dissolves. For

audio/video fades, T-bar's "up" position means "IN" and the "down" means "OUT". For A/B dissolves (synchronous source ONLY), when the source A is selected (source "A"" LED is lit), the T-Bar's "UP" position means "Source A" and the "down" position means "Source B".

10. Source Key: Cuts back and forth between A and B sources. (Note: to fade

manually with non-synchronous sources, use the T-Bar to fade the first source OUT, then press the SOURCE key to switch sources, then use the T-Bar again to fade the second source IN.)

11. B/W key: Creates a black and white effect for source video. This key cycles

through four choices:

* Source A only * Source B only * Both Sources A + B * Bypass (no B/W effect

at all).

12. Color Processor Key: Enables R-G-B CORRECTOR Key, and activates VIDEO

GAIN and COLOR controls. When LED is lit, color processing is active. SE-200 will memorize the status ("ON" or "OFF") of processor.

13. R-G-B Corrector Key: Actives joystick for R-G-B color correction. When LED is lit,

joystick is active. Note: color processing must be active first, before R-G-B correction can be activated.

14. R-G-B Joystick: Controls R-G-B color correction/white balance of video output.

(Active only when both R-G-B CORRECTION and COLOR PROCESSOR LEDs are lit).

15. VIDEO GAIN Control: Adjusts the luminance level of video output (active only

when COLOR PROCESSOR LED is lit).

16. VIDEO COLOR Control: Adjusts color saturation of video output (active only

when COLOR PROCESSOR LED is lit).

17. AUDIO SOURCE A Control: Adjusts the audio volume of Source A.

18. AUDIO SOURCE B Control: Adjusts the audio volume of Source B.

19. AUDIO MUSIC Control: Adjusts the audio volume of any background music

source (such as CD player)

20. AUDIO LEVEL Indicator: LED display indicates the volume of complete audio

output mix.

21. Power on/off Switch: Turns power on and off when power supply (AC Adaptor)

is properly connected.

22. Earphone Volume Control: Adjusts the volume of earphones, for monitoring

complete stereo audio output.

23. MIC Volume Control: Adjusts the volume of microphone input (Narration

Microphone provided).

24. Earphone Output Jack: Accepts most earphones (not included) for

monitoring complete stereo audio output.

25. Mic Input Jack (Left or Mono): Accepts most microphones, including the

Narration Microphone provided. Note: mono input here will be outputed through both the Left and Right channels.

26. Mic Input Jack (Right): Accepts most microphones, including the Narration

Microphone provided.

Note: mono input here will be outputed through the Right channel only.

2.0 GENERAL COMMENTS

Datavideo's SE-200 Integrated Editing Center is a 5-in-1 Editing Center which includes:

1) Color Title Producer, 2) S.E.G. (Special Effects Generator), 3) Auto Video Editor,

4) R.G.B. Color Processor, and 5) A/B Cross Fade Audio Mixer. The SE-200 has inputs available for two separate video + audio sources, an additional audio source, and a Microphone (included). Note: You can use any or all of these source inputs. The SE-200 works with one video + audio source as well as with two video + audio sources.

The SE-200 handles both synchronous and non-synchronous video, though it does not synchronize videos by itself. Synchronous video is a professional application, requiring a Time Base Corrector (TBC) such as the Datavideo TBC-3000. To learn more about synchronous video, read section 3.0.

3.0 SYNCHRONOUS VIDEO

3.0.1Hook -up the SE-200 with a Time Base Corrector (Datavideo TBC-3000)

When two video sources have identical signal timing, they are "synchronous", and can be viewed simultaneously in the same video field (like a TV screen). This is not possible with non-synchronous video sources. A Time Base Corrector (TBC)is used to synchronize two non-synchronous video sources, and it is usually a very expensive piece of equipment. Datavideo, however, provides a low cost TBC with high performance (model TBC-3000), which is easy to hook up with the SE-200 for professional video effects like A/B Roll, A/B Dissolve and A/B Animation. Please see "S.E.G." MODE (section 5.0) for a further description of these effects.

4. CUSTOM ICONS

-> NON SYNC VIDEO SYNC VIDEO

The SE-200 handles both synchronous and non-synchronous videos. Since your videos are probably "non-synchronous", the SE-200 is pre-set for "non-synchronous videos". (If you are using the Datavideo TBC-3000 to generate synchronized video, see "Synchronous Video" on page 5). Using the up and down Arrow Keys, move the cursor to "Synchronous Video" to enter "Synchronous Video Mode". In this mode you will be able to playback A/B Roll, A/B Dissolve, and A/B animation effects in S.E.G. mode, and A/B editing in Editor mode. These effects will be described in detail later in the S.E.G. and Editor sections.

4.0.3 Select page to work on.

Press the number key "1" to enter the Titler's Edit Sub-Mode. In Edit Sub-Mode, you will see the information on your TV screen as shown below. Note that thember on the top of screen (P01, P02, etc) tells you what page you are on. You may press the "NEXT" key (blue color key) to enter next page.

4.0.4 Select background.

You can create text on live video images or on a solid background of one of eight colors. Press the Background "STYLE" and "COLOR" keys to see these options and select one of them.

[EDIT] P01 L01 C01

4.0.5 Select text colors.

Cursor shows what color the character will be. Press the "CHAR COLOR" key to

see the eight colors available and select one of them. Note: If you are using the SE-200 with an external source, and you are creating titles on a solid color background, there is a ninth character color to choose from: "clear." (The clear color comes after yellow as you press the CHAR COLOR key to cycle through the colors available.) With a "clear" character color, your title characters appear as "live video" while the background on screen remains a solid color.

4.0.6 Select text size.

Each line of text can be one of four sizes. Press the "SIZE" key to see the sizes

available and select one of them.

4.0.7 Create text.

The position of the cursor indicates the starting place for the text. Type in any

text you wish, just the way you would on a typewriter. Note that as you type in

characters, the cursor line (L01, L02, etc.) and cursor column(C01, C02, etc.)

change to show the position of the cursor as it moves.

a). To move cursor: press the SPACE BAR (the large "PLAY" key) to move one

space at a time; press the "ENTER" key to move one line at a time. After text

has been created, move cursor in any direction by pressing the arrow keys.

Note: If you plan to make your text run across the TV screen like "Tickertape",

or if you plan to make text appear in a "Caption" format, use the smallest

size and type it in continuously(even if words are split between lines). This will

prevent gaps in the text during playback.

b). To make an upper case letter: Press "SHIFT" + the letter key. To make all

upper case letters, press the "CAPS LOCK" key (the "CAPS" LED will light

up when this key is on). Press "CAPS LOCK" again to turn off the "CAPS"

LED and return to lower case letters.

!1!

c). For keys with two black characters on them (such as , ): Type

normally for the "lower" character, press "SHIFT" + the key for the "upper"

character.

d). For keys with yellow characters on them (such as "&" or "@"): press "ALT" +

the character for the "lower" yellow character; turn CAPS LOCK on, then

press "ALT" + the character for the "upper" yellow character.

e). To create special accent marks( such as " ", " " ), use the two gray

"Accent" keys and as follows:

* To make a character with the accent mark that appears in the lower left

~ o " I

corner of an Accent key: press the Accent key, then the character key.

* To make a character with the accent mark that appears in the upper left

corner of an Accent key: press both the "SHIFT" and Accent keys, then the

character key.

* To make a character with the accent mark that appears in the lower right

corner of an Accent key: press both the "ALT" and Accent keys, then the

character key.

* To make a character with the accent mark that appears in the upper right corner of an Accent key: press all three "ALT", "SHIFT", and Accent keys, then the character key. * To make capital letters with accent marks, turn "CAPS LOCK" on, and repeat

the above steps.

f). To erase text: Press the "DELETE" key to erase the character marked by the

cursor; press the "PAGE" and then "DELETE" keys to erase entire page; press "ALT" + "SHIFT" and "DELETE" keys to erase all pages.

Note: Memory capacity is 110 lines of text total (over all pages created). A "line

of text" is created every time you press the ENTER key or the cursor

moves down to new line on screen--even if there are no characters on that line.

In other words, blank lines count as lines of text in memory, and should therefore

be avoided. If your titles exceed memory capacity, a screen prompt will read:

"TITLER OUT OF MEMORY." If this occurs, delete one line (or one full page) of text

at a time until total lines of text are within memory capacity.

Note that you may also delete all pages of text by pressing the "ALT" +

"SHIFT" and then "DELETE" key.

4.0.8 Select text border.

Press the "BORDER" key. The text on the screen will cycle through the three border styles available: solid-color, color- filled black outline, and color- filled white outline.

4.0.9 Make characters flash.

a). Existing text: position cursor over the character(s)you want to flash and press the "FLASH" key. Note: once a character is flashing, the only way to stop it from flashing is to delete it. b). New text: First, press the "FLASH" key, then type in new characters. These characters will flash. To return to non-flashing characters, press the "FLASH" key again, and continue typing. These new characters will not flash.

4.0.10 Make different style characters Press the "Enhance" key to select one of three character styles. Note that

whole line of characters will be effected by the enhance key.

4.1 CREATE PATTERNS

a. While still in Edit Sub-Mode, press the "NEXT" key to select a new, blank page. b. Press the Background "STYLE" key to choose a solid background. c. Press the background "COLOR" key to choose the color of the solid background. d. Move the cursor to any area on the screen by pressing the Arrow keys. e. You can change the size of the cursor with the "SIZE" key. Try the default setting (small size) first. f. Simultaneously press the "ALT" key + the SPACE BAR (the large "PLAY" key). The area below the cursor will become a "clear" block (the source video will show through the solid background). g. By moving the cursor around on the screen and pressing the "ALT" + "SPACEBAR" keys , you can make a customized pattern of "clear" blocks, where the source video shows through the solid background.

h. You can also make cursor-size blocks of color that are different than the solid

background color: simultaneously press "ALT" + SHIFT + the " " key ( the same key as " i " ). Once you have created a block of color, you can change that color by pressing the " CHAR COLOR" key.

Note: Remember, as noted above, you can also create clear-color

characters (instead of clear-color blocks) on a solid color background.

4.2 CREATE TITLING EFFECTS

4.2.1 Go from Edit Mode to Effects Mode.

After you create the title you want on a page, press the "SUB MODE" key. You should again see the "Titler Mode" menu appear on your TV screen. Press number "2" to enter Effects Sub-Mode. In Effects Sub-Mode you should see information on your TV screen as follows:
