Video with Audio
Routing
Presets can be used to coordinate audio and video routing. Store and name presets that
match the desired audio inputs to each desired video input, and use those presets to
select the video inputs, causing the configured audio to follow.
Interaction of
Presets and GPIs
Triggering presets using GPI inputs offers considerable power but also requires some
care to avoid unexpected results. If you plan to trigger presets using GPIs, please see the
information about the
“Interaction of Presets and GPIs” on page 52
Video Select Buttons VID1-VID4
As described in
“Operational Summary” on page 19
, the VID1, VID2, VID3 and VID4 front
panel buttons select a Video Processor channel. When selected, the nine Video buttons
on the right are used to select a category of menus.
Single Channel Mode has one Video Processor, to which all the parameter settings in
these menu groups apply. Four Channel Mode has four Video Processors. Changes to
Video Select Button parameter settings only apply to the currently selected Video
Processor, whose VID1-4 button will be illuminated.
INPUT Menu Group
IMPORTANT:
In Four Channel Mode, the settings in this menu group apply only to the selected Video
Processor (VID1- VID 4).
1 Input
These parameters perform input video source selection for the Video Processor.
Source Memory
Changing the Video Input selection automatically selects new values for Proc Amp
parameters and Color Corrector (RGB) parameters. Each video source remembers its own
Proc Amp and Color Corrector settings. This is referred to as Source Memory.
Dual Link
Dual Link referred to here is 1080p50/59.94/60 on two 1.5 Gb HD-SDI connections, or
4K/UltraHD low frame rate video on two 3 Gb connections. Selecting Dual Link as the
Video Input will allocate both SDI Inputs for Dual Link use. The SFP inputs operate the
same way.
