3.7.5 

Output EDH 

 
EDH is a method of embedding data within the ancillary data space which carries a measurement of the 
video and other data.  By regenerating the equivalent measurement at the receiving end it is possible to 
check that the data has been received correctly. 
 
HD signals always have the EDH data embedded, but for SD signals it is optional.  On the V6333 Audio 
multiplexer, the EDH on the output can be disabled on the 

ENG’ING

 : 

O/P EDH

 menu.  Care must be taken 

if the new EDH generation is disabled and the old EDH is being passed through because it will probably not 
correctly represent the data.  In this case the Ancillary Data really ought to be blanked.  (On early units the 
ancillary data is always blanked.) 
 

3.7.6 

Display Sleep 

 
Since, for the vast majority of its life, the modules will operate behind the front panel of a rack frame the 
display on the local front panel will not be visible so it will go to sleep after a certain time.  This timeout 
delay can be changed on the 

ENG’ING

 : 

Sleep

 menu to be anything between 0 and 30 minutes; 0 minutes 

means that it will stay on indefinitely.  The sleep timeout always counts from the last front panel button 
push.  The default time is 5 minutes. 
 
The panel can also be forced into its sleep mode by moving up a level from the Top Level menu which 
displays the module type, 

V6333Q/D

 etc. 

 
To get the display to come on again simply press one of the buttons and the menus will start again at the 
Top Level. 
 

3.7.7 

Display Brightness 

 
The brightness of the front panel display can be adjusted on the 

ENG’ING

 : 

LEDLevel

 menu. 

 

3.8 

Configuration Menu 

 
The  GPI  functionality  can  be  enabled  in  the  configuration  menu.  Apart  from  the  GPIs  it  does  not  any 
operator functions. It is mainly used for factory initialisation of the module. 
 

3.8.1 

GPI Configuration 

 
There are four GPIs. They are all active low with on-board pull-ups and voltage protection. 
Each of the four GPIs can be configured to switch the SDI input selection to the second input when active, 
or the GPI can be disabled.
