3.2.4 Video input card
To integrate analog video, SDI video and HD-SDI video, there are different types of video input cards available for
use in the H
. Each board except the Streaming video card is additionally equipped with a RJ45 GPIO connec-
YDRA
tor for user specified functions like tallies or alarms. Furthermore there is an LED for each input connector to ind
cate, if there is a video connection or not.
Depending on the type of the video input card up to 60 video sources can be processed and displayed by one
H
.
YDRA
Order
The video input cards are inserted into the slots on the left of the overlay input card (looking from the back on
the H
). The order of the various video input cards and the RGB input cards can be chosen arbitrarily. One
YDRA
exception from this is the combination of Quad SDI video input cards and RGB input cards since the RGB input
xception from this is the combination of Quad SDI video input cards and RGB input cards since the RGB input
cards can not be inserted directly to the left of the Quad SDI video input cards. Either a card of another type can
be inserted between these cards or the RGB input cards can be inserted to the right of the Quad SDI video input
cards.
There is no empty slot allowed between overlay input card and video/RGB input cards and
between the video/RGB input cards themselves!
Maximal number of video input cards
The maximum number of HD-SDI input cards and Streaming video cards that can be used in one H
on the amount of other used cards within that H
input cards, V for Dual analog video input cards, Quad analog video input cards, Dual SDI input cards and Quad
SDI input cards, S for Streaming video cards, R for RGB input cards, O for one channel output cards, ODDda for
DVI-DVI digital/analog output cards, ODDd for DVI-DVI digital output cards and A for the audio mother boards.
The following rule must be applied for a H
50 ≥ (H * 4.7) + 2 + (V * 3.1) + (S * 3.7) + (R * 2) + O + (ODDda * 2.5) + (ODDd * 0.5) + (A * 0.8)
With a non-redundant power net the following rule must be applied:
56 ≥ (H * 4.7) + 2 + (V * 3.1) + (S * 3.7) + (R * 2) + O + (ODDda * 2.5) + (ODDd * 0.5) + (A * 0.8)
With non-redundant operation for all types of cards an unlimited number can be inserted except for the HD-SDI
input cards (at maximum 10 pieces, depending on the other cards) and Streaming video cards (at maximum 12
pieces, depending on the other cards). With redundant operation limitations apply also for other types of cards.
In both cases always the whole configuration must be considered.
