3. OPERATION
The Evertz HDSD9545DLY-PRO Profanity Protection device is designed to give an operator complete
control over live program content being broadcast to air eliminating the risk that certain actions, on the part
of an artist or an intruder, might be offensive to certain viewers.
There are two program paths that are HD and SD compatible. The main program feed will usually be
focused on the main detailed live action. The secondary back-up path will generally offer a wide angle
shot, or some suitable alternative picture to the main content. Both channels are delayed by a set amount
of time. If an unscheduled, offensive event occurs, the operator has only to hit one button to cause the
program video and audio output to be clean switched to the alternative back-up channel. When the
offensive material is no longer present, the output can be returned to the main detailed image, without the
audience noticing that an edit has occurred.
The HDSD9545DLY-PRO electronics is housed in a 2RU rack mount frame and is controlled from the
built-in front panel controls. All units can also be controlled by contact closures on the GPI/O control port.
