To insert text and graphics in a background image by means of a
luminance key, use the following procedure.

With the BACKGROUND bus buttons, select the background image.
The selected background image appears on the program monitor.

Note
Depending on the effect pattern, it may not be possible to use a luminance

the “TITLE” column of the table in the section “Effect Pattern Variant
Forms and Decorations” (page A-22), and select a pattern for which this
shows a check mark (√).
When the TITLE button lights, the N/R button also automatically lights,
indicating that the system is in N/R (normal/reverse) mode. While the
TITLE button is lit, it is not possible to switch out of N/R mode.
