Overview
Features of This System
The Sony DFS-700/700P DME Switcher is a Digital
Multi Effects system, offering high-performance
effects at high image quality. The system consists of a
processor unit and control panel.
Support for fully digital component
systems with SDI inputs and outputs
This system provides SDI interfaces as standard
equipment. This allows it to be incorporated in fully
digital linear editing systems using DVCAM-series,
Betacam SX-series, and other digital VCRs.
Advanced special effects
This system is equipped with advanced special effects,
including trail, lighting effects, ripple, swirl, and
explosion.
Installing the optional BKDF-711 board adds a second
DME channel, and the optional BKDF-712 board
enables 3D mapping effects to be used.
For details of option boards, see page 1-3.
Support for wide range of input/output
signal formats
•There are eight inputs as standard (VIDEO INPUT 1
to 8).
VIDEO INPUT 1 to 4: SDI (serial digital interface)
signals
VIDEO INPUT 5 to 8: analog component signals.
VIDEO INPUT 8 can also be used as an analog
RGB signal input.
Installing the optional BKDF-701 board allows all
eight inputs to be used as either SDI or analog
component inputs.
Installing the optional BKDF-702/702P board allows
four inputs to be used as either Y/C (S-video) or
analog composite inputs.
For details of option boards, see page 1-3.
•The standard outputs are two each of SDI, analog
component, analog composite, and Y/C, for a total of
eight outputs.
Comprehensive title key functions
Luminance keys, chroma keys, and downstream keys
are all provided as standard functions.

Chapter 1 Overview
Color correction function
A YUV color correction function is provided for white
balance adjustment and general color adjustment.
User program effect and snapshot
function
•User program effects: This system has a large
number of built-in effects, but also allows the user to
create original effects, and save them in memory, for
execution in the same way as the built-in effects. Up
to twenty user program effect patterns, both linear
and nonlinear, can be saved.
•Snapshot function: The processor unit includes
snapshot registers 0 to 99, each of which can hold a
snapshot of the control panel settings. These can then
be recalled as required.
Aspect ratio selection
In the setup menu it is possible to select either 4:3 or
16:9 as the screen aspect ratio.
Easy operation for live broadcasting
The following features make this system suitable for
live broadcasting from CATV studios and so on.
•Fully-equipped control panel offers easy operability
for signal selection and transition setting.
•Parallel tally output and preview output supplied as
standard
Interfacing with editors
This system is equipped with I/O interfaces for two
sets of control signals, allowing operation together
with various editing control units.
•Nine-pin interface connector (one input/output):
for A/B roll editing (two players, one recorder)
together with a PVE-500, BVE-2000 series, or other
editing control unit
•GPI (General Purpose Interface) and trigger
signal connectors (two inputs): for control from
external equipment not fitted with the 9-pin interface
This system also supports the background through
mode. If connected to a recorder VCR with a preread
function, A/B roll editing with a minimum of two
VCRs is possible. (In background through mode, the
delay to the signal selected on the background bus of
this system is 4H. Note that there are restrictions on
the effect patterns that can be used for preread editing.)
External synchronizing connectors for
higher editing precision
The system is provided with black burst outputs for
synchronizing other connected devices, and a genlock
input for synchronization to an external signal. This
allows more precise editing.
Rack mounting
The processor unit can be mounted in an EIA standard
19-inch rack.

1 PGM OUT (program output) connectors
These output the final program output, that is, the
video to which effects have been applied. Connect to
VTR (recorder) and program monitor video input
connectors. The following four types of output are
provided, each with two channels (1 and 2).
SDI (BNC): Output serial digital signals (270 MHz).
COMPOSITE (BNC): Output composite video
signals.
COMPONENT (BNC): Output Betacam format
component video signals (Y, R–Y, B–Y).
S VIDEO (4-pin): Output S-video (Y/C separation)
signals.
You can use all four formats simultaneously. The same
signals are output from connectors 1 and 2.
2 VIDEO INPUT connectors
These input video camera and VTR (player) video
signals. The connectors are in four groups, as follows.
•SDI INPUT 1 to 4, (OPTION) 5 to 8 (BNC)
•COMPONENT 5/1, 6/2, 7/3, 8/4 (BNC)
•COMPONENT/COMPOSITE (OPTION) 5 to 8
(BNC)
•S VIDEO (OPTION) 5 to 8 (4-pin)
SDI INPUT 1 to 4, (OPTION) 5 to 8 (BNC-type)
Input serial digital signals (270 MHz).
Connectors 5 to 8 can only be used when the optional
BKDF-701 SDI and Component Input Board is
installed.
The input signals to these connectors must be
synchronized to this unit.
COMPONENT 5/1, 6/2, 7/3, 8/4 (BNC-type)
Input Betacam format component video signals.
Y: Input the luminance (Y) signal.
R–Y: Input the R–Y color difference signal.
B–Y: Input the B–Y color difference signal.
The input signals to these connectors must be
synchronized to this unit. Therefore, when inputing
from a VTR, the signal must come through a time base
corrector.
The 8/4 column of connectors can be changed to RGB
input connectors by a setup menu operation. In this
case, connect G (with sync), R, and B signals to Y, R–
Y, and B–Y respectively.
When the optional BKDF-702/702P Y/C and
Composite Input Board is installed, you can select in
the setup menu whether to use the 5/1, 6/2, 7/3, and
8/4 connectors for component inputs 5 to 8 or
component inputs 1 to 4.
COMPONENT/COMPOSITE (OPTION) 5 to 8
(BNC-type)
These connectors can be used by installing either of
the optional BKDF-701 and BKDF-702/702P boards.
When the BKDF-701 board is installed, connect
Betacam format component video signals. When the
BKDF-702/702P board is installed, connect composite
video signals. The signals can be input from a VTR
with no time base corrector. When using the BKDF701 to input signals from a VTR, they must come
through a time base corrector.
S VIDEO (OPTION) 5 to 8 (4-pin)
Input S-video (Y/C separation) signals. These
connectors can only be used when the optional BKDF702/702P board is installed. The signals can be input
from a VTR with no time base corrector.
3 EDITOR connector (9-pin)
Use this connector when controlling this unit with an
editor (PVE-500, BVE-2000 series, or other editing
control unit). Using an optional 9-pin remote control
cable, connect to the 9-pin control connector of the
editor.
4 PANEL connector (25-pin)
With the supplied 25-pin control cable, connect to the
25-pin connector of the control panel.
5 TALLY connector (25-pin)
Tally signals are output from this connector when the
signal input to a VIDEO INPUT connector is selected
on the control panel. Connect to the input signal
sources (video cameras etc.). The outputs are relay
contact signals, with a capacity of 200 mA / 30 V.
6 TERMINAL connector (USB type B)
This is a USB interface connector. Use it when
connecting to a computer for a software version

7 CLEAN OUT connector (BNC-type)
Outputs serial digital signals (270 MHz). Using the
setup menu, you can select the output from the
following three signals.
CLEAN OUT: The program output signal, without
the downstream key inserted.
PVW OUT: The signal output is the same as the
program output after completion of the effect
transition. The title area can also be shown.
KEY OUT: This outputs a key signal corresponding
to the shape of a selected effect. Use it as the key
source input to another device.
8 PVW (preview) connector (BNC-type)
This is an analog composite preview output. The signal
output is the same as the program output after
completion of the effect transition. It is not possible to
include the title area.
9 BLACK BURST OUT 1 to 3 connectors (BNCtype)
These output the black burst signals generated by the
synchronizing signal generator internal to this unit.
When an external synchronizing signal is input to the
REF. VIDEO IN connectors, the black burst signal
output is locked to the external synchronizing signal.
Use the output from these connectors as a reference
synchronizing signal when synchronizing input signal
sources (character generators, etc.), or when
synchronizing this unit with a VTR or editor to
improve the precision of editing.
q; DSK (downstream keyer) KEY IN connectors
(BNC-type) and 75 Ω terminator switch
Input the key source signal for a downstream key,
from a character generator or other device.
When the 75 Ω terminator switch is in the OFF
position, the connectors provide a loop-through
connection; with the key signal input to one connector,
the other provides the same key source signal to
another device. By connecting to an analog component
Y connector on this unit, you can use it as a title key
source.
When not using the loop-through output, the 75 Ω
terminatior switch must be in the ON position.
qa REF. (reference) VIDEO IN connectors (BNCtype) and 75Ω terminator switch
When using this unit synchronized to an external
signal, input the external reference signal (black burst).
When the 75Ω terminatior switch is in the OFF
position, the connectors provide a loop-through
connection; with the reference signal input to one
connector, the other provides the same reference signal
for another device. When not using the loop-through
output, the 75Ω terminatior switch must be in the ON
position.
qs GPI/T (GPI/trigger) 1 and 2 connectors (BNCtype)
Input external trigger signals. These are used when
controlling editing with GPI signals or an editor (BVE-
600).
qd U (ground) terminal
Connect this to ground as required.
qf - AC IN connector
With the supplied power cord, connect to the AC
supply.

Selecting an Effect
This section describes the types of effects you can use on this system, and
how to select an effect.
Types of Effect
The DFS-700/700P has more than 450 built-in effect patterns provided as
standard.
Each pattern is identified by a number, and the patterns are grouped
together under headings such as “wipe” and “picture-in-picture”.
Transition effects and animation effects
Effects are broadly divided into transition effects and animation effects.
Transition effects: in these effects the background image is completely
replaced by the foreground image. When the effect completes, the
colors in which the BACKGROUND and FOREGROUND bus
buttons are lit become the reverse of those before the effect.
Animation effects: in these effects, for example, the foreground image is
inserted in the background image, and moved around. The foreground
image does not completely replace the background image, and the
colors in which the BACKGROUND and FOREGROUND bus
buttons are lit stay the same.
For the differences between transition and animation effects, see the section
“Background Image and Foreground Image” (page 3-12).
Modifications to effects
Depending on the effect pattern, the following modifications can be added.
•You can add a border to the boundary between the background image and
foreground image, or blur the boundary.
•You can change the pattern position and size.
For details of the modifications that can be applied to the effect patterns, see the
section “Effect Pattern Variant Forms and Decorations” (page A-22).
•You can change a pattern by changing its parameters. (Effects which can
be changed by setting parameters are referred to as “user modifiable
effects”.)

The foreground image appears in the upper left corner, and fills the screen
in a series of vertical strips.
The foreground image appears from the right, and slides over the
background image to the left.
The foreground image appears as a door rotating toward the viewer to
close, and covers the background. When the door is completely closed, the
foreground fills the screen.
The image rotates about a vertical axis as though a panel with the
background on one side. When the panel reaches 90 degrees to the plane of
the screen, the foreground image appears on the other side, and completely
fills the screen when the transition ends.
