This mode allows for a single OPS300 to seamlessly switch and blend any of its 12 analog/digital inputs with
any other of the inputs, add PIP, titling or logo insertion to the live frame, while previewing your every move
before going live, to avoid embarrassing errors on your main screen. The Mixer mode is the OPS300 native
mode, and with no less than 6 layers (of which 3 live layers). The OPS300 with the Video output allows to
have a full Main screen for recording or broadcasting.
This mode turns your OPS300 into a true 12x2 scaled matrix, while preserving seamless switching capabilities.
Output #1 and #2 can be set to different resolutions and rates. Switching between any of the inputs can be
done with the various effects (Cut, Fade, Slides…) and synchronized on both outputs.
* NOTE * This mode leads the following restrictions: no PIPs, no logos and no frames.
INTRODUCTION
1-1. THE OPS300 OPERATING MODES
Before you start setting up your OPS300 for the rst time, be sure you know what you actually want to do with
it. The OPS300 offers a choice of two operating modes, which results in a versatile video production tool for
live event staging and xed installation applications.
* NOTE * : We recommend resetting the device to its default values every time you set up your shows or
events (see the “Operating The OPS300” chapter, p25).

PIP: a PIP (Picture In Picture), is a picture, typically of reduced size, which is positioned over another
background image or PIP. PIPs can be reduced, enlarged and bordered. PIPs can overlap, depending on
their visual priority.
OPS300 allows for Dynamic PIP on the opening and closing of the sequence, vertically or horizontally. A
“ying” PIP is also possible over the screen with vertical, horizontal or diagonal animation. A PIP is considered
as a live layer.
FRAME: a Frame is a full screen image which is selected from one of the eight still frames which you can
capture with the OPS300. A Frame can be ash captured from any video or computer source plugged into
the machine (8 max).
LOGO: a Logo is a partiel screen image that can be ash captured from any Video or Computer source, by
keying or image cut-out. OPS300 can record up to 8 still logos. They can be positioned anywhere on the
screen. An animated logo is also available on the eighth input.
KEYING: a Key is an electronic process whereby an image is electronically superimposed over another
source or background, by cutting out either a color (Chroma Key), or its brightness or luminance levels (Luma
Key). Keys are typically used for titles, logos and special effects. OPS300 allows to use a live source with
green or blue background and to key it over any other live input.
1-2. USEFUL TERMS AND DEFINITIONS
BACKGROUND: a Background is a source, typically originating from a computer. OPS300 enables you to
work with live or still (frame) background sources - visually in back of all other sources.
LAYER: a Layer is an image display element (such as a PIP window, Key, Logo(s) or Background) that has
an associated visual priority — either in front (or in back) of another layer.
The OPS300 can simultaneously view no less than 6 layers (3 video or live layers,
1 frame layer or background and 2 logo layers).
OPS300 can insert up to 2 PIPs on a live background, plus 2 logos.
