Following are descriptions of each Key Setup Menu function:
• Input Source — This field enables you to select the desired digital key source.
~ Selections: 7, 8
~ Default: 7

background image. A hole will be cut into the background anywhere that
foreground luminance is greater than the clip level.
~ Adjustment range: 0 to 1023
~ Default: 0
• Gain — This value adjusts the sensitivity of the keyer, enabling you to change the
sharpness of the keyed image. Gain only affects the key hole, as set by the clip.
~ Adjustment range: 0 to 1023.99
~ Default: 1.00
• Opacity — This value adjusts key opacity.
~ Adjustment range: 0 (fully opaque) to 1023 (fully transparent)
~ Default: 1023
• H Offset — This value adjusts the key source’s horizontal offset (in pixels), if the
key source’s resolution is greater than (or less than) the output resolution.
• V Offset — This value adjusts the key source’s vertical offset (in pixels), if the key
source’s resolution is greater than (or less than) the output resolution.
