Welcome to Datavideo Academy. This video will introduce the SE-2600's appearance. Let's start with the rear panel.
For video inputs, there are 4 SDI ports and 4 HDMI ports, supporting resolutions up to 1080p 50/60. Each input port is labeled with default channel numbers, which can be manually adjusted for each channel's video source, as explained later.
For video outputs, there are 3 SDI and 3 HDMI ports, each assignable with distinct video content.
Audio inputs include two XLR/phone combo ports and one RCA interface. Stereo and mono modes can be toggled using adjacent buttons. Audio output is provided through an RCA interface.
For control, interfaces include RS-232, DVIP, Tally output, GPI output, and sync signal connections.
USB ports are available for firmware updates, along with power interfaces and switches.
Next, let's look at the control panel.
The panel is divided into several functional areas.
PGM/PVW channel keys select sources for PGM or PVW screens.
Transition-related keys control transition effects such as mix, wipe, DVE, and clip. Selected effect keys illuminate red and detailed settings can be adjusted in the OSD menu. Above are keys for selecting transition effect styles.
Note that choosing the upper DVE effect automatically switches to DVE transition type, while selecting the lower Wipe effect switches to Wipe transition type.
REV reverses the direction of transitions.
This area manages SE-2600's layers including Key, DSK, and Logo.
Four function keys on the left—SHIFT, AUX, FS, and GRAB—along with channel keys, enable complex function settings detailed in subsequent instructions.
MENU open the switcher's OSD menu for navigating menu items with arrow keys. Enter confirms selections, and MENU returns to the previous menu level.
USER allows for quick loading of 9 custom switcher configurations.
Finally, there's a headphone monitoring interface and volume control knob.
That concludes the overview of the SE-2600's appearance.
