Frame Memory Operations - Sony XVS-9000 User Manual

• When an internal format converter is shared, the input
assigned to the target FC channel must also be shared.
Also, the FC channel configured for output use can be
used on logical switcher 1 only.
• The XVS-8000 has the following restrictions.
- Dedicated inputs are assigned to logical switcher 1.
However, they can be used only when output
connectors connected to the dedicated inputs are also
assigned to logical switcher 1.
- M/E dedicated outputs are assigned to logical switcher
1.
- Output connectors 49 to 52 are assigned to logical
switcher 1.
• The XVS-7000 has the following restrictions.
- The same signals on output connectors 9 to 16 of the
physical switcher are assigned to the FC9 to FC16
internal format converters. If an output is not assigned
to the logical switcher to which the corresponding
internal format converter is assigned, a black signal is
output from the format converter.
- If only one of the logical switchers is 4K format and a
color background is assigned to the 4K format logical
switcher, selecting a black or white signal on the DME
utility 1 bus/2 bus of the other logical switcher will
cause the color background image configured on the
4K logical switcher to be output.
Setup menu when resource sharing is
enabled
Checking resource sharing settings
When resource sharing is enabled, "On" is displayed in the
"Resource Share Mode" field in the Engineering Setup
>System >System Config menu (7312).
You can press [Resource Share] to display the Resource
Share menu (7312.1) to check the logical switcher signal
format and resource assignment status.
To check the assignment status details of each resource,
press [Detail] in the Resource Share menu (7312.1) to
display the Detail menu (7312.2). The details for the
resource selected in the upper list in the status area are
displayed.
Setup menu operation
[SWR1] displayed in the Setup menu refers to logical
switcher 1, and [SWR2] refers to logical switcher 2. These
can be configured in the same way as the physical
switcher.
The resource numbers for the logical switchers and
physical switcher are also displayed in the input/output
display in the following menus.
• Engineering Setup >Switcher >Input menu (7332)
• Engineering Setup >Switcher >Output menu (7333)
Notes
• Changing the signal format in the Engineering Setup
>System >Format menu (7313) may also change the
setting of the other logical switcher.
- If the combination of signal formats that would result
from changing signal format is not supported for
resource sharing, the other logical switcher is set to the
same format as the currently selected logical switcher,
and reboots.
- If the field frequency/frame frequency is changed, the
other logical switcher also changes in conjunction with
the currently selected logical switcher, and reboots.
- If the input reference signal is changed, the other
logical switcher also changes in conjunction with the
currently selected logical switcher.
• Executing [Reset] in the Engineering Setup >System
>Initialize menu (7315) will reset both logical switchers
1 and 2, regardless of which logical switcher is currently
selected. Executing [All Clear] will initialize the
currently selected logical switcher and reset the other
logical switcher.
• When installing software using the Engineering Setup
>System >Install/Unit Config >Install menu (7316.10),
the other logical switcher cannot be operated.
• The following menus can be configured only from
logical switcher 1. All inputs and outputs are the target
of settings, regardless of the resource assignments.
- Engineering Setup >System >Network Config >Net
I/F Initialize menu (7311.1)
- Engineering Setup >System >Network Config >Net
I/F Setting menu (7311.2)
- Engineering Setup >System >Network Config >Net
I/F Protocol menu (7311.3)
- Engineering Setup >System >Maintenance >SDI
Output Enable menu (7317.3)
• The reference phase (System Phase) setting in the
Engineering Setup >Switcher >Config menu (7331) is
common to logical switchers 1 and 2.
• Setup menu operation for shared resources is available
from logical switcher 1 only.
However, Engineering Setup >Panel >Xpt Assign >Src
Name/Src Color menu (7322.6) independent operation
for shared resources is available on logical switchers 1
and 2.

Frame Memory Operations

Frame memory data
The image data (folders/files) that can be used by each
logical switcher varies depending on the frame memory
