• A “LOGO” is a full screen image that is selected from one of three still frames that you can capture with each individual ScreenPRO-II unit. A maximum of 12 still frames can therefore be controlled from the ScreenPRO-II Controller.
Page 20: System Overview
• Effect Combinations pÅêÉÉåmolJff=`çåíêçääÉê The ScreenPRO-II Controller is a versatile interface that enables users to control up to four individual ScreenPRO-II units and peripheral equipment (such as BlendPRO-II, MatrixPRO routers and ImagePRO). The ScreenPRO-II Controller offers the complete functionality of the ScreenPRO-II front panel, plus many features that are not available on the local panel.
Page 21 A layer is defined as an image display element (such as a background, PIP, or Key) with an associated visual priority. The ScreenPRO-II mixer itself has two layers, A and B. For complete flexibility, each layer can be assigned to either PIP or Key functionality.
Page 22: Dual Destination System
PIPs or Keys. póëíÉã=`çãÄáå~íáçåë The ScreenPRO-II Controller can be configured in a variety of different ways, using both single screen and widescreen destinations. You can use up to four ScreenPRO-II units and up to four Aux destinations. The only limitation is one widescreen destination per ScreenPRO-II Controller, comprised of up to four ScreenPRO-II units and a BlendPRO-II.
Page 23 The figure below illustrates a dual-destination system comprised of the ScreenPRO-II Controller, two individual ScreenPRO-II units and two single-screen projectors (destinations). Within this system, Ethernet is used for communications between components, and all ScreenPRO-II inputs are received via routers or direct connections. Destination Destination...
