XtenDD production switchers are offered as packages (with option packages) and “à la carte.” The latter
allows you to configure a switcher system tailored to the customers needs. For example, combine a
different size control panel with the frame and fine-tune individual options, or combine a control panel with
a High-Definition HD XtenDD frame.

The switcher packages and option packages offer simple ordering of the most practical combination of
options.

Order numbers

Two different order numbers are used, depending on the region placing the order.

• M/E couple

• Virtual patch panel

• Extra intern DSKs

• Satellite panels (RSAT1 and RSAT2)

Note: The I/O Value, Plus, and Super Packages are mutually exclusive. Shading indicates total capability
from switcher and option packages per combination.

A “flexible” license (for example, Dynachrome chroma key) means that the user can specify the mix
effects or keyer in which the function can be used based on production needs rather than specifying that
in the order. So, for example, a chroma key can be assigned according to user preferences or production
requirements during pre-production configuration.

Serial Tally

Serial tally enables control systems (Andromeda, Jupiter, or third-party) to
receive and send tally information. For customers not using one of these,
the following tally break-out boxes are available to convert the serial tally
information into parallel semiconductor relay closures:

RPS35-4, 32 source button control panel set with dedicated Cut and Auto
push buttons for each keyer, redundant power supply, and input mnemonics.

The control panel set includes:

• Main Panel RPD35-4/32

• Auxiliary Bus Panel RPA35-4/32

• Wipe Selection Panel RPW35

• Menu Display Panel RPV35 with touch-screen

Many customers prefer to mount these in a specially designed desk where
the RPV, RPA, and RPW can be located according to operational needs.
Interconnection cables of approx. 1 meter are provided.

Two optional cable sets are available for more distant mounting – replacing
the standard cable set. (See models RC 2214 and RC 2216 under “À la Carte
Ordering” for details.)

The optional all-in-one mounting frame for RPS35-4 mounts on the back of
the main panel and provides mounting for RPA, RPV (tiltable), and RPW panels.
(See the model RC 2840 under “À la Carte Ordering” below for details.)

The optional stand for graphical user interface provides mounting for the RPV
panel. (See the model RC 2397 under “À la Carte Ordering” below for details.)

M/E Couple

This option allows the operator to couple one mix effects bank to another.
Crosspoint selections and transitions in the “master” mix effects bank are also
done in the coupled mix effects bank.

The flexibility of this feature allows you to automatically substitute crosspoints,
as well as define which operations are actually coupled. When one M/E is
coupled to another the crosspoint selection on background, background
preset, and the transition (CUT, AUTO, and T-Bar) are coupled by default.

A separate selection enables the coupling of key/fill crosspoints and a third
selection enables coupling of the next transition selection.

Existing customers use this feature for a wide range of applications, including
4:3/16:9 simulcasting, secondary client output, video wall feeds, etc.

One additional M/E processor RY 3410 is required.
This option is not available for 4 M/E switchers due to space limitations.
Example:
An XtenDD-3 with this option plus an additional M/E-Card (which is then in the

Virtual Patch Panel

This option allows you to remap physical inputs.
It is essentially useful when applications, such as timelines, snapshots, and

macros from other XtenDD switchers, need to be imported. It is also very
useful in the emergency case of a failure of a needed VTR, camera, or server,
allowing for rapid substitution.

With this feature, for example, VTR8 can be used instead of the faulty VTR5
– and no snapshot, timeline, or macro needs to be re-built (as VTR5 is now
“patched” to VTR8).

Satellite Panel 1

The Satellite Panel 1 is used for copying button functions of the XtenDD/DD35
main operation panels for control of mixer functions from another surface.

Connects to XtenDD/DD35 main panel or RSE1 via RS-422 cable (5m
included). One satellite panel can be connected to the main panel; additional
satellite panels can be connected using the RSE1 controller (one satellite
panel per RSE1).

Besides single button functions, the built in Digipots and the Fader can also be
trained with functions from the main panel when the learn mode is applied.

Application Examples:

Remote control on source selection, effects register recall, transitions, macros,
Shot-box, keyer adjust, etc., specifically in conjunction with the use of an
additional side-panel control PC.

Various pre-made configurations are available.

Control Elements:

• 4x Digipots

• 6x5 button matrix, programmable with LEDs

• 2x Menu-Ctrl. buttons (step up/down)

• 1x display mode button (name<—>value)

• 1x fader (T-bar)

Display Elements:

• 16 character menu-function LEDs

• 4x4 character LEDs (i.e., 1x per Digipot)

• Serial connection status display
In learn mode only one function per button or Digipot is programmable.

Delegation functions are not available. Also, functions of the RPV side-panel
display are not recordable.

The programmable memory of the RSAT1 is part of the XtenDD/DD35. Thus
the programmed function set for the RSAT1 buttons can be switched from
application to application. More complex button sequences can be achieved
by programmed recall of macro buttons of the main panel.

The standard unit is equipped with 1x reconfigurable 9-pin D-sub interface for
connection to a host processor. The factory configuration is a RS-422/485 port
on the bottom side.

Satellite Panel 2

The RSAT2 is used for detaching or copying of functions of one switcher M/E,
which are then operated from a different location. There are some pre-defined
function sets, but as with the RSAT1 the functions can also be learned. The
connection is made usually with an RS-422 cable (5m included) to a XtenDD/
DD35 control panel. One satellite panel can be connected to the main panel;
additional satellite panels can be connected using the RSE1 controller (one
satellite panel per RSE1). RSAT2 panels connected via RSE1 controller operate
independent of the main control panel, which is desired for many applications.

The panel can be mounted in table or console. A mounting frame is available
for rack mounting. (19-inch rack mount frame, 6 RU. Type: RC 2326 order no:
0 351 762 600 resp. F0-351762-600)

Inclusive button inlays for standard M/E control.

Application Examples:

• Rehearsal panel: located on-stage this enables the director to see and

work with the camera’s signals while working interactively with the talent
on the stage

• Sub-control: an assistant prepares effects in one M/E

• Secondary control: in many cases (especially in OB vans) there is the need

to generate and submit a signal for secondary clients. Depending on the
complexity this can be an aux bus but also a complete M/E. In the latter
case RSAT2 is an ideally suited panel.

• Compact control panel for -1 mainframe

Dynachrome Chroma Keyers

Based on a matting technique, Dynachrome achieves excellent detail and shadow reproduction, with
virtually no color spill. Clip, gain, and FGD-fade can reduce background noise and eliminate most unwanted
shadows. The automatic key alignment (AKA) is pre-adjustable for any key color. The cursor allows an AKA
for every key color. Manual adjustment is possible, as well as separate adjustment for both adjacent hues
(selectivities) and a radial displacement away from the center of the color circle. Selectivity masking allows
different chroma-key settings to be simultaneously executed in different image areas within single keyers.

Dynachrome chroma keyers for the XtenDD can be ordered flexible for dynamic user assignment to a
selected keyer.

Wipe generators are available flexible for user selection of where the wipe is used. Maximum of two wipe
generators can be used per M/E.

When there are two wipe generators in one M/E they can be combined to generate even more creative

Far Shadow Stores

A far shadow store is a black-and-white store that can generate a movable drop shadow from any key
signal. It is available once per M/E. The far shadow store extends the borderline capabilities of the mix
effects’s keyers by a freely positionable drop shadow. It can be selected through the “border” function.

A flexible far shadow store license (maximum one per M/E) allows assignment of the far shadow store
function to any M/E. It then can be used in any keyer of that M/E bank.

Paint Mask Stores

(Also known as paint stores)
A paint mask store is a black-and-white store that can store a key signal for PaintModeMasking™. It is

available once per M/E. The key signal on the store’s input can be one of the keyer’s output signals or one
of the wipe pattern generators. Since the store is fully recursive, users can paint their own shapes into the
store using a wipe pattern, such as the circle wipe, as a paintbrush. By adjusting the softness of the wipe
shape the resulting shape can have soft edges. The stored shape is movable (shift function) and can be
used for masking and for keying.

A flexible paint mask store license (maximum one per M/E) allows assignment of the paint mask store
function to any M/E. It then can be used in any keyer of that M/E bank.

Common Options for HD XtenDD Mainframe

Dynachrome Chroma Keyers

Based on a matting technique, Dynahrome achieves excellent detail and
shadow reproduction, virtually no color spill. Clip, gain, and FGD-Fade can
reduce background noise and eliminate most unwanted shadows. The
automatic key alignment (AKA) is pre-adjustable for any key color. The cursor
allows an AKA for every key color. Manual adjustment is possible, as well
as separate adjustment for both adjacent hues (selectivities) and a radial
displacement away from the center of the color circle. Selectivity masking
is the ability that allows different chroma key settings to be simultaneously
executed in different image areas within single keyers.

Dynachrome chroma keyers for the XtenDD can be ordered flexible for
dynamic user assignment to a selected keyer.

Flexible Chroma Keyers:

LK0120 H Order no: 0 157 410 268

F0-157410-268 initial order only

F0-157410-290 later order only

must be specified in order.

Wipe Generators

One wipe generator provides 100 basic (rectangles, circle, ellipse, etc.) and
fancy patterns (stars, spirals, matrix, etc.) – including DD’s fractal wipes. A full
set of modifiers (border, softness, aspect, stretch, multi, rotation, etc.) is also
provided.

Wipe generators are available flexible for user selection of where the wipe is
used. Maximum of two wipe generators can be used per M/E.

Flexible Wipe Generators:

LK0119 H Order no: 0 157 410 288

Far Shadow Stores*

A far shadow store is a black-and-white store that can generate a movable
drop shadow from any key signal. It is available once per M/E. The far shadow
store extends the borderline capabilities of the M/E’s keyers by a freely
positionable drop shadow. It can be selected through the “border” function.

A flexible far shadow store license (maximum one per M/E) allows assignment
of the far shadow store function to any M/E. It then can be used in any keyer
of that M/E bank.

* Option available in a future release.

F0-157410-297 later order

Enables shadow store in flexible shadow store. S/N of mainframe must be
specified in order.

Paint Mask Stores*

(Also known as paint stores)
A paint mask store is a black-and-white store that can store a key signal for

PaintModeMasking. It is available once per M/E. The key signal on the store’s
input can be one of the keyer’s output signals or one of the wipe pattern
generators. Since the store is fully recursive, users can paint their own shapes
into the store using a wipe pattern, such as the circle wipe, as a paintbrush.
By adjusting the softness of the wipe shape the resulting shape can have
soft edges. The stored shape is movable (shift function) and can be used for
masking and for keying.

A flexible paint mask store license (maximum one per M/E) allows assignment
of the paint mask store function to any M/E. It then can be used in any keyer
of that M/E bank.

* Option available in a future release.
