Note:• Values in bold or ( ) are factory default settings.
• The “Chromakey Setup” feature only works with Inputs 1 & 2. Input 1
is always the background video and Input 2 is always the top layer
with the key applied to it. The part of Input 2 that is to be keyedout (removed) should, ideally, be a single color that is not usedanywhere else in the source signal. Typically this is accomplishedby using a special blue or green screen behind the recorded video
subject. The Red, Green, and Blue key values should be set withas small a range between the minimum and maximum as possible
while still maintaining a clean key to help avoid accidental removalof normal video content. When Input 1 or 2 has no live source a
warning message will appear on the OSD.
• Consult the OSD (“Ethernet Steup” menu) to view the current IP
settings if necessary. An Ethernet re-link is required after every IPchange.

return. Commands are not case-sensitive.
• If the IP address is changed then the IP address required for WebGUIor Telnet access will also change accordingly.
• Consult the OSD (“Ethernet Steup” menu) to view the current IP
settings if necessary. An Ethernet re-link is required after every IPchange.
