What types of keyers are supported?
The device supports internal (logo) and external keyers.
Router Connections. Imagine communications IconMaster
The IconMaster is a master control switcher that provides a variety of features, including video and audio routing, keying, effects, and automation. It is designed for use in broadcast and production facilities. The IconMaster is a powerful and versatile tool that can be used to control a wide range of broadcast equipment.

System Configurations—NEO Routers
Note: System configurations for Panacea routers start on page 62. System configurations
for Platinum routers start on page 91.
This section describes the connections that are required in some typical configurations involving NEO NSM internal routers. The following NEO router configurations are described in this section:
IconMaster System with Internal Video NSM Router and Optional ICONM-BO-V Module
IconMaster System with Single Channel Audio and Video NSM Routers and Optional
ICONM-BO-VAC Module
IconMaster System with Internal (Two Channel) Audio and Video NSM Routers and
Optional ICONM-BO-VAC Module
General
Information
Both Video and Audio NSMs
Only one set of NSMs can be installed in a 3RU frame.
The source offset for all NSM modules is 1.
The destination offset for all NSM modules is 0.
Video-Only NSM Modules
The first video NSM module must be assigned an X-Y level of 0.
When ganging 2 cards together, the second module must be assigned an X-Y level of 1.
Audio-Only NSM Modules
The NSM-7×2AES router supports a single AES stream for both A and B inputs on the
IconMaster. If the NSM-7×2AES routers are to be used for discrete AES audio for a full two AES (four-channel) system, four of these router modules are required.
The expected use would be as follows:
NSM #1 and NSM #2 provide AES 1 for Bus A and Bus B.
NSM #3 and NSM #4 provide AES 2 for Bus A and Bus B.
Sample Configuration 1: IconMaster System with Internal
Video NSM Router and Optional ICONM-BO-V Module
This section describes the connections that are required in a typical configurations involving an IconMaster system with an NSM video router module and an optional breakout module.
You can place the NSM modules anywhere in the same NEO frame as the IconMaster system.
