Video Operations
Using Mix/Wipe to Switch the Video
Here’s how to switch between input video while applying an eect, and nal output.
About the operation mode for video transitions
There are two operation modes for switching the video on the
PGM/A bus and PST/B bus: the “PGM/PST mode” and the “A/B mode.”
* With the factory settings, the operation mode is set to A/B mode.

IMPORTANT NOTES
WARNING
Use only the supplied AC adaptor and the correct voltage
Be sure to use only the AC adaptor supplied with the
unit. Also, make sure the line voltage at the installation
matches the input voltage specied on the AC
adaptor’s body. Other AC adaptors may use a dierent
polarity, or be designed for a dierent voltage, so their use
could result in damage, malfunction, or electric shock.
Use only the supplied power cord
Use only the attached power cord. Also, the supplied
power cord must not be used with any other device.
CAUTION
Handle the ground terminal carefully
If you remove the screw from the ground terminal, be
sure to replace it; don’t leave it lying around where
it could accidentally be swallowed by small children.
When refastening the screw, make that it is rmly
fastened, so it won’t come loose.
Power Supply
• Place the AC adaptor so the side with the indicator faces
upwards. The indicator will light when you plug the AC
adaptor into an AC outlet.
Placement
• Depending on the material and temperature of the surface
on which you place the unit, its rubber feet may discolor or
mar the surface.
Repairs and Data
• Before sending the unit away for repairs, be sure to make
a backup of the data stored within it; or you may prefer to
write down the needed information. Although we will do our
utmost to preserve the data stored in your unit when we carry
out repairs, in some cases, such as when the memory section
is physically damaged, restoration of the stored content may
be impossible. Roland assumes no liability concerning the
restoration of any stored content that has been lost.
Additional Precautions
• Any data stored within the unit can be lost as the result of
equipment failure, incorrect operation, etc. To protect yourself
against the irretrievable loss of data, try to make a habit of
creating regular backups of the data you’ve stored in the unit.
• Roland assumes no liability concerning the restoration of any
stored content that has been lost.
• Never strike or apply strong pressure to the display.
• Use only the specied expression pedal. By connecting any
other expression pedals, you risk causing malfunction and/or
damage to the unit.
• This unit allows you to switch images at high speed. For some
people, viewing such images can cause headache, nausea,
or other discomfort. Do not use this unit to create video
that might cause these types of health problems. Roland
Corporation will accept no responsibility for any such health
