Making Complex Tasks Simple

Regardless of the task, Sony has the right digital switcher for the application at
hand. And whether the switcher is large-scale, mid-range, or compact in size, one
important factor is constant across the product line — Sony switchers have the
power to make complex tasks simple.

That benchmark principle holds true with the new DVS-7250. Here are just a few
examples:

• DME-LINK™ — the ability to run the DME-3000 or DME-7000

effects timeline from the switcher. This function simplifies operations
with a simple push of the fader or the triggering of an E-File™.

• Processed Key — the ability to compose a key within the DVS-7250,

route it to an external device (such as the DME) for processing, and
re-enter it in the same DVS-7250 keyer. This feature reduces complex
patching to a simple button press.

• System Integration — provides powerful production and editing tools

in conjunction with the BVE-9100, BVE-2000, and DME-series
effects devices. Through status reporting and the editing system’s
ability to learn switcher functions, this high level “system” function
greatly simplifies the editor’s day-to-day requirements.

• Fingertip Menus — an extremely simple and logical method of

accessing menus. Simply double-press any control panel button that
has an associated menu, and the system instantly jumps to that
location on the display. Functions with associated menus such as
keying, color background, frame memory, and timeline control are at
your fingertips, without time-consuming menu navigation.

• Router Interface — the ability to control a Sony DVS-B Series

routing switcher directly through the switcher’s integral display. This
feature places up to 128 sources at your fingertips, with the superb
(and ultra-efficient) capability of storing router information along with
switcher setups and snapshots.

• Peripheral Interface — using a widely adopted industry standard

(Grass Valley Peripheral II), the DVS-7250 can control digital effects
devices, still stores, and character generators with convenience.

• Familiarity — the DVS-7250’s operating style simplifies the learning

curve and enhances creativity at every turn.

As you review the DVS-7250 feature descriptions that follow, keep in mind how
Sony’s overall digital switcher principle rings true — making complex tasks simple.

4 •• Features and Benefits DVS-7250 • Product Guide

Basic Tools

SONY

This section describes basic DVS-7250 features used in day-to-day production and
post-production.

Control Panel

The DVS-7250 offers two different control panels. Each is compact and modular,
and similar in design and layout to the larger DVS-7000 series, but with two M/E
(mix-effects) banks rather than three, plus a powerful program/preset bus.

• The “American Style” panel (BKDS-7026) features staggered

FlexiPad control for each M/E, in a layout familiar to all freelance and
staff technical directors. The compact FlexiPad allows quick learning
and recall of snapshots, user DME functions, and user wipe functions.

• The “Euro Style” control panel (BKDS-7025) provides a source name

display plus in-line FlexiPad control on each M/E.

Regardless of the selected panel, the DVS-7200’s streamlined architecture includes
two keyers and a color background generator on each M/E and the program/preset
bus. As a fully-loaded system, six simultaneous key layers are possible.

Like all Sony digital switchers, the DVS-7250’s control panel is engineered for
simplicity and ease-of-use. A large-scale display screen offers easy access to
operational parameters, adjustments, and setup functions. Dedicated controls (with
associated displays) are provided on each M/E plus program/preset, offering
convenient access for keyer adjustments.

The control panel also supports a variety of optional sub-panels for memory recall
control, DME control, DSK control, and E-File control. All sub-panels are
identical in size, allowing their in-panel locations to be customized as required.
Optional sub-panels can also be mounted external to the panel, using a BKDS-7075
Remote Adaptor.

The control panel’s benefits are as clear as the design — familiar streamlined
operations, comfort, and flexibility.

Input Flexibility

The DVS-7250 can be equipped with 12, 24, or 36 primary inputs and up to four
component analog chroma key inputs. For flexibility, all SDI inputs can be
switched (from the panel) between component digital (4:2:2) and composite digital
(4fsc) operations. This versatile system allows you to edit, for example, with
component DVW-500’s in one session and composite DVR-20’s in the next —
seamlessly.

By adding the BKDS-7110 “Mother Board,” you can also customize your input
configuration with a mix of analog composite and serial digital input modules — up
to three BKDS-7110 boards can be installed, and up to 12 input modules can be
installed per board, in any combination. Even though the switcher’s internal
processing is fully digital, the analog composite input modules provide a convenient
gateway for existing composite equipment.

DVS-7250 • Product Guide Features and Benefits •• 5

SONY

Note that with the hybrid composite analog/digital configuration, when you switch
to component digital operations, all composite analog inputs are temporarily
disabled.

6 •• Features and Benefits DVS-7250 • Product Guide

SONY

The bottom line is that the DVS-7250 is not restricted to one or two input
configurations. You have the flexibility to configure the precise system to suit the
customer’s current requirements — and expand when future needs arise.

V-Proc

Because input configurations change from day-to-day, all inputs have an auto­timing window with an adjustment range of ± .4H. For simplicity and convenience,
the “V-Proc” (Video Processing) feature allows adjustment of each input to
compensate for common errors in image acquisition. Adjustments are provided for
the following parameters:

• ± 200% adjustment range for video (4:2:2 / 4fsc)

• ± 200% adjustment range for luminance (4:2:2)

• ± 200% adjustment range for chrominance (4:2:2)

• -7.31 to +109.64 IRE adjustment range for black level (4:2:2)

• -42.86 to +140.00 IRE adjustment range for black level (4fsc)

• ± 180° adjustment range for hue (4:2:2)

V-Proc actually provides a greater control range than a TBC.

Output Flexibility

The DVS-7250 offers an impressive array of outputs:

• Four Program

• One Preview

• One Clean

• Fourteen Auxiliary outputs, including one Edit Preview

• Two M/E 1

• Two M/E 2

Best of all, by selecting the desired combination of output modules (BKDS-7161
Analog Composite or BKDS-7162 Digital Output), you can customize the format of
each output listed above.

Whether you need a mix of composite analog and digital Aux bus outputs, or an all­digital system, the DVS-7250 makes it easy. Compared to switchers with fixed
output configurations, the DVS-7250’s flexibility literally adapts to the production
or post production situation at hand.

Effect Keyers and DSK

In the DVS-7250, two powerful effect keyers are standard (per M/E). Up to two
DSKs (Down Stream Keyers) can also be added. A variety of creative key “types”
can be selected, as follows:

• Luminance — a high-gain key that derives the “hole-cutting”

information from the full range of source luminance values.

• Chroma — a key in which the hole-cutting information is derived

from a color rather than from a video level.

DVS-7250 • Product Guide Features and Benefits •• 7

SONY

• Linear — a key that takes advantage of independent key signals

provided by external devices such as character generators. Linear
keyers have increased sensitivity to the key signal gain.

• Clean — a key that takes advantage of “shaped” video provided by

devices such as digital video effects. Whereas a linear key is
multiplicative in its ability to cut a hole, a “clean” key is additive.

• Pattern — a key that uses a wipe pattern (and all active pattern

modifiers) to generate a key signal.

Keyers truly make the difference in switchers. There’s rarely a production or
commercial today that doesn’t involve multi-layer keys — it’s a requirement that
can’t be overlooked in switcher design. The DVS-7250’s key processing capability
is powerful, yet it’s also simple to understand and operate. You can express your
creativity and make a storyboard come true — without getting lost in menus.

Key Edge Adjustment

One aspect of the DVS-7250’s high quality key processing is the ability to fine tune
and optimize the key signal — independent of the “fill.” Through the use of over­sampling, the key signal’s width can be modified in sub-pixel units. Edges can be
trimmed to add dimension and overall realism, and adjustments can be performed
independently to the left and right key edges. Furthermore, because the process
follows the edge itself, even irregularly shaped key signals benefit from Key Edge
processing.

From simple mattes to complex chroma keys, the DVS-7250’s Key Edge processing
is another simple tool that yields visually powerful results.

Enhanced Wipe Generator

With the BKDS-2070 option, additional patterns (including matrix wipes) are
added. These include Star, Heart, and the popular “Diamond Dust” wipe. The
enhanced patterns can also be combined with the primary patterns — enabling you
to create new custom wipes.

Snapshot, Effects Memory, and Storage

As the natural by-product of computer controlled switchers, the ability to store and
recall control panel snapshots has become a fundamental production requirement.

Clients come back to change things — sometimes more than once! Producers like
their keys set up just one way — and always that way. And TDs (technical
directors) like to work with special and often highly customized setups — even if
the previous TD had a completely different control panel setup.

These typical situations are a breeze with the DVS-7250. TDs can store and recall
up to 99 “snapshot” memories from the Master E-File panel or M/E FlexiPad, and
recall up to 32 snapshots as dedicated functions from the optional Shot Box panel.
You can even transition between snapshots. The snapshot data (as well as setup
and effects data) can be archived on an integral floppy disk for long term storage.
For live use or post, snapshots are directly accessible through the Master E-File
panel, the Memory Recall panel or the Shot Box panel.

SONY

Superior Editor Interface

The DVS-7250 communicates with editing systems from most major manufacturers
via serial interface, including Sony’s BVE-2000 and BVE-9100. With most editors,
a variety of basic editor-switcher control modes are available, including:

• Crosspoint assignment.

• Pattern selection.

• Transition and duration control.

• Basic switcher “learn” capability, with storage in the editor’s EDL.

• GPI control for auto-transition and memory recall functions.

With the BVE-9100 specifically, Sony’s superb status reporting adds many
advanced modes:

• Precise Jog/Shuttle positioning of the switcher timeline.

• Advanced switcher timeline learn functions, with switcher status and

transition data stored in the editor’s EDL.

• Control of both switcher and DME keyframe data.

• Using the BKE-9402 Programmable Control Panel, virtually

everything that can be controlled or adjusted in the switcher can be
adjusted from the editor.

It’s another aspect of Sony’s system integration that contributes to the simplicity of
working with a Sony system — making complex tasks simple.

Router Interface

Switchers like the DVS-7250 typically have a limited group of inputs available on
the panel — facilities, however, typically have a very large pool of input sources
controlled by a routing switcher. Depending on the daily requirements of a
production, the TD is constantly called upon to change the array of switcher inputs.

In the past, this function was performed by manually operating external control
panels. Now, with the DVS-7250, you can control a Sony DVS-B Series routing
switcher directly from the DVS-7250’s display — allowing complete flexibility with
crosspoints, input assignments, and the switcher’s 14 auxiliary buses.

Depending on routing switcher’s configuration, up to 128 sources can be assigned
to the switcher’s 36 primary inputs and four analog component inputs. Router
information is also stored with switcher setups and snapshots — which in turn
provides operator convenience, efficiency, and highly precise effect recall functions.
And when the DVS-B Series router and DVS-7250 switcher are married to the
BVE-9100 (with its ability to store switcher setups in the EDL), effect recall
achieves yet another level of convenience and precision.

In the time it used to take to manually re-patch a switcher’s input configuration, on
the DVS-7250 you can recall a snapshot that re-maps crosspoints, sets up the M/Es
and initiates a transition — all with one button — making complex tasks simple.

Switchable System Standard

In addition to feature flexibility, the DVS-7250 also provides standard and format
flexibility, as follows:

• When configured for component digital operation (4:2:2), you can

operate in the 525 or 625 line standard. The appropriate system
reference is required.

• When configured for composite digital operation (4fsc), you can

operate in the 525 line standard.

• You can switch aspect ratios between 4:3 and 16:9.

Achieving this level of flexibility is equally easy — all standard and format
switching is performed on the integral display screen.

Redundant Power Supplies

Power supplies just sit there and work — no moving parts, no trouble ever, and no
need for a backup, right? Hindsight is wonderful, but not when the feed to Telco is
black! A little redundancy goes a long way.

To this end, Sony offers optional redundant power supplies for both the switcher
processor unit and the control panel. When a power supply problem is detected by
the system’s diagnostics, an operator warning appears and the automatic back-up
system switches power supplies — with no signal interruption or loss of output.

Power Tools

The DVS-7250 offers superb features, and a little peace-of-mind, too.

This section outlines the features that operators value the most on the DVS-7250.
Power tools not only simplify the daily job, but they add to that all-important
category of creativity — the area in which a switcher’s artistic and aesthetic
capabilities are greater than the sum of its parts.

Timeline Effects

The only thing better than creating a beautiful switcher event — is creating a series
of events along a timeline, and editing each event with exacting precision. The

DVS-7250’s timeline feature allows you to create and run switcher timelines for
each M/E — plus the DSK — plus user functions such as auxiliary bus control.

In much the same way that you program effects on the DME, switcher timeline
effects give you control over the path of wipe pattern position (including spline), the
duration of individual events (or “keyframes”), and the relative timing between the
various M/E and DSK timelines.

Up to 99 key frame registers are available. The feature allows you to copy, modify,
and delete events, save and recall timelines, and preview the completed effects
(individually or in combination) on the switcher’s display panel. With timeline
control, complex sequences that could not be performed live (nor repeated
accurately) can now be programmed, edited and used in a production with ease.

Integrated DME Control

Console space is definitely at a premium in modern control rooms. With each new
device taking up space, it seems that there’s barely enough room for the director’s
script, let alone a DME control panel. The DVS-7250 reverses this trend with the
addition of two optional switcher panels: the BKDS-7030 Key Frame Control Panel
and the BKDS-7031 DME Control Panel.

These switcher “insert” panels completely replace the DME’s own control panel.
Together, they eliminate unnecessary console footprints, and provide an economical
and highly convenient method of effects creation and control. In addition, the
switcher’s floppy drive can store DME setups, snapshots, and effects files — as well
as switcher data. (Tell the director there’s finally enough room for the script!)

In addition to Sony DME products, a wide variety of digital effects devices from
other manufacturers such as Scitex DV (Abekas) and Tektronix-GVG can be
controlled directly from the DVS-7250 control panel. This interface utilizes a
widely adopted industry standard protocol (Grass Valley Peripheral II), and requires
the BKDS-7001 control port expansion for the switcher’s control panel.

Key Modifiers

A keyer that simply keys isn’t good enough! When the client says “show me what
you can do with this key,” the technical director needs a creative toolbox from
which to offer as many visual options as possible — far beyond basic borders and
shadows.

To address this requirement, the DVS-7250 provides extensive key modifiers:

• Each keyer can access the M/E’s wipe pattern generator, and a

separate internal pattern generator for mask.

• Each keyer has an optional dual matte generator for border fill. This

dual matte generator in turn has its own pattern generator.

• With the optional Key Border Generator installed, Border, Drop

Border, Soft Edge, Shadow and Drop Shadow capabilities are added to
the effect keyer. The option also provides continuous color, position,
width, density and softness adjustments. The key border can be filled
with the dual matte generator, or a live video source from the
integrated M/E bank utility bus.

• Powerful “copy” functions allow you to transfer settings between

keyers and matte generators with ease.

Now, with the DVS-7250, when the client says “nice, but let’s see something else,”
the operator will never run out of creative ideas.

Advanced Chroma Keyer — FineChroma



Sony’s FineChroma technology, available with the optional BKDS-2031 and
BKDS-2032 boards together, provides an advanced level of chroma key processing
typically found in external chroma key devices only.

Each M/E can be equipped with a chroma keyer that delivers full 4:4:4:4 video and
key processing, auto and manual modes, color cancellation, spot color correction,
shadow and density control, plus a dual clip and gain feature that allows two
separate clips in a single image.

DVS-7250 • Product Guide Features and Benefits •• 11

SONY

You can also generate a dedicated key source for up to two cameras, providing a
constant and convenient matte source as required.

Although the feature list is impressive, it’s the visual results that make the
difference. Whether you’re keying transparent glass or working with an unevenly
lit background, the DVS-7250’s FineChroma technology delivers clear edges and a
remarkable degree of visual realism on screen.

Dual Matte Generators with Color Mix Capability

Switchers stopped being just switchers (in the precise definition of the word) many
years ago. They’ve evolved into a combination switching device and artist’s
palette, with the ability to mix sources, colors, and patterns as required to bring a
storyboard or a production to life.

To this creative end, the DVS-7250 has provision for up to eight internal dual color
matte generators — for Key-1 edge and Key-2 edge (for each M/E plus DSK), in
addition to Wipe border and Color background (for each M/E). Each of these matte
generators has color mix and wash capability, its own dedicated pattern generator,
and extensive pattern modifiers. Rembrandt would be jealous.

Frame Memory

The highly versatile Frame Memory function provides storage and playback for two
individual frames, divided as needed between video only, or video and key signals.
A dedicated internal routing system is provided for each frame, independent of Aux
bus operation.

Frame memories can be used for the following creative applications:

• Grabbing fields or frames.

• Layering.

• Creating custom masks.

• Storing matte and fill signals.

• Painting from a user-supplied graphics tablet.

• Re-positioning live or frozen images as a snapshot or animated as a

keyframe effect. A mask can also be applied a live image using an
internal dedicated wipe generator.

• Storing and manipulating frozen z-axis images (in conjunction with a

DME’s Depth Key processing).

• Keying and mixing between frames, filling with video from an

internal auxiliary bus or matte generator, then routing the results to
any desired internal or external switcher destination.

In much the same way that audio boards allow you to create sub-mixes upstream of
the main mix, Frame Memories provide video sub-mix functions upstream of the
buses, with the resulting capability — and creativity.

Auxiliary Buses

There’s nothing special about Aux buses, right? Not true with the DVS-7250!
Fourteen auxiliary buses are available, with the standard set of primary and M/E
crosspoints as you might expect. Using a simple assignment menu, you can place
the Frame Memories, Key mattes and fills, and even the clean chroma composited
image on the Aux buses.

In fact, every signal that enters the switcher or is internally generated — can be
placed on an Aux bus.

The DVS-7250’s Aux bus feature is simple and logical. You can sometimes predict
the signals you’ll need before an edit session or production, but once you’re in the
midst of it, there’s a confidence in knowing that everything is accessible via the
Aux buses — on demand. Whether you’re routing to DMEs, monitors, recorders or
an Edit Preview feed, the DVS-7250 offers a total Aux bus delegation package.

Processed Key

The DVS-7250’s Processed Key function is an “effects pathway” that solves the
problem of routing signals to and from a DME digital effects system or color
corrector, without complex patching. You can compose a chroma key for example,
clip and adjust it, route it to the DME for manipulation, and then re-enter it in the
same DVS-7250 keyer — with the simple press of a button.

Whether you’re flying logos or re-sizing graphics, the Processed Key approach
clearly illustrates the benefits of Sony’s system integration concept. Best of all, the
feature works with most other major manufacturer’s DVEs that are equipped with a
key channel.

DME-LINK

For live field production and studio production, the DVS-7250’s DME-LINK
feature controls up to four Sony Digital Multi Effect systems through the switcher’s
control panel. Operators can run specified DME-3000 and DME-7000 effects by
the switcher’s fader or transition button — just like wipes and dissolves.

In post, it’s easy — the BVE-9100 editing system sends out serial commands to
initiate DME effects. But in live production, you simply don’t have enough hands
to trigger all the necessary devices.

With DME-LINK in the path, however, running the DME timeline is easy, and the
switcher’s internal transition rate overrides the rate programmed locally on the
DME. Over 30 basic effects are available for single and multi-channel DME
systems, and on the DME-7000 specifically, up to 12 user-defined digital effects can
be used.

DME-LINK once again underscores the DVS-7250’s benchmark principle —
making complex tasks simple.

Bus Link Mode

The Bus Link Mode allows you to establish a relationship between the crosspoints
of different switcher buses. The mode has valuable applications in both live and
post production situations:

• With a link established in a live broadcast, for example, selecting

camera one on M/E 2 could automatically select camera one on an
Aux bus. Offsets can also be established through the use of up to five
“link relationship tables” — allowing you to select the same source or
a different source on another bus, as required.

• In post production, for example, the Bus Link Mode would allow you

to automatically select M/E 2 key matte on Aux 13, each time M/E 2 is
used as the program output source.

GPI Link Mode

The GPI Link Mode allows you to establish a relationship between switcher
crosspoints and the switcher’s GPI output ports. A variable timing relationship can
be established between the crosspoint selection and GPI outputs. For a virtual
studio application, for example, selecting a camera (on a switcher bus) would
trigger a GPI pulse that in turn switches computer-generated virtual backgrounds.
This action also delays the actual video switch by a certain number of fields —
allowing the background and foreground to switch in sync.

In operation, the GPI Link can be advanced or delayed from the initial “press” of
the switcher crosspoint.

BKDS-7700 Tally Interface Unit

The BKDS-7700 Tally Interface Unit provides 72 standard programmed tally relay
outputs for the following switcher components:

• All 36 primary inputs

• 4 Analog Chroma Key inputs

• Up to 6 DME/DVE inputs

• Up to 48 External Devices

The unit can also be used to set conditional tallys for ISO record and other switcher
functions. Up to 4 relay states may be set for each tally function. The BKDS-7700
also provides an “S-Bus” interface to the Sony DVS “B” series routing switchers. In
this configuration, the “B” series is accessed directly from the DVS-7250’s display
for changing primary switcher crosspoints. Input labels and tally information
automatically follows all routing switcher changes.

Note that the BKDS-7700 is a separate rack mount chassis (3 RU) with power, and
connects to the DVS-7250 via RS-422. Note that RS-422 interconnect cables are

not provided. In the “Options and Upgrades” section, see the “System Cables,
RS-422” heading for part numbers and information. RS-422 interconnect cables

have a maximum length of 100 meters.
