DPM CPL Interface
Krystal DPM Outputs
Each Krystal Video Processor frame has three video outputs: Key/Depth,
Preview, and Program. How you connect these outputs to the Zodiak
system depends on the Krystal options available (Combiners, Graphics,
etc.) and your specific facility configuration. See the Krystal 4300 Installation
and Service Manual for more information.
In software release 1.2.0, connect the Krystal outputs to Zodiak input
source BNCs on the rear of the Video Processor frame and define them as
DPM Physical sources (refer to
Source Number Mapping on page 276
).
