Special system setting (Single Processor Simul mode)
When using a combination of a 4M/E switcher processor and a 4-channel DME
processor in an HD system, the Single Processor Simul mode is available. In
this mode, M/E-1 on the switcher processor is linked to M/E-3, and M/E-2 is
linked to P/P. As a result, the M/E-1 and M/E-2 panel buttons go off, and
cannot be operated.
In this mode, the screen aspect ratio is fixed, as follows.

M/E-3 and P/P
16:9
M/E-1 and M/E-2

Channels 3 and 4

Relation between switcher and DME: Operations are linked with the screen
aspect ratios the same.
Notes
• The waveforms for wipe pattern numbers 23, 24, 26, and 27 are the same
in 4:3 and 16:9 modes.
• Color backgrounds, frame memory, and other functions used on the
whole switcher operate at 16:9.
Note on creating a user programmable DME: The keyframe registers used
for creating a user programmable DME are divided by screen aspect ratio
as shown in the following table.
