If you have any questions about the contents of this manual, please contact your local LEADER agent. Symbols and Terms The following symbols and terms are used in this instruction manual and on the instrument to indicate important warnings and notes.
Page 7 Failing to do so could lead to fire. Turn OFF the power switch, and remove the power cord from the outlet. After making sure that fire has not spread anywhere, contact your local LEADER agent.
Page 8 Using a power cord that does not meet the standards could lead to fire. If the power cord is damaged, stop using it, and contact your local LEADER agent. Using a damaged power cord could lead to electrical shock or fire.
Page 9 To ensure stable performance, we recommend that you have the instrument calibrated regularly. Also, if the instrument malfunctions, repairs are necessary. For repairs and calibration, contact your local LEADER agent. Routine Maintenance When you clean the instrument, remove the power plug from the outlet.
Page 10 1. INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTION Thank you for purchasing this LEADER instrument. To use this instrument safely, read this instruction manual thoroughly, and make sure that you know how to use the instrument properly. If some point about the operation of this instrument is still unclear after you have read this instruction manual, refer to the contact information on the back cover of the manual to contact LEADER, or contact your local LEADER agent.
Page 11 To continually use the last-memory feature, we recommend that you replace the backup battery with a new one every five years after you purchase the instrument. You cannot replace the backup battery yourself. For details, contact your nearest LEADER agent. 1.2.7 About the LCD Panel There may be a small number of pixels in the LCD panel that do not light or are always on.

INTRODUCTION About Terminology Used in this Manual SER01/SER02/SER03/SER04/SER05 LV 5490SER01 is referred to as SER01; LV 5490SER02 is referred to as SER02; LV 5490SER03 is referred to as SER03, LV 5490SER04 is referred to as SER04, LV 5490SER05 is referred to as SER05. Single Input Mode This refers to the mode in which on the INPUT menu, DISPLAY is set to SINGLE.
Page 13 For 4K video formats, 3G-SDI dual link and quad link and HD-SDI quad link are supported. The display is a 9-inch full high definition LCD enabling the LV 5490 to also be used as a high-quality picture monitor. In addition, the LV 5490 is equipped with SDI and DVI-D output connectors.
Page 14 A USB mouse can be used to operate the panel. If the measurement screen is displayed on an external monitor in SDI or DVI-D, you can control the LV 5490 by using a USB mouse while viewing the external monitor.
Page 15 2. SPECIFICATIONS Time Code Display The LV 5490 can display the LTC or VITC that is embedded in an SDI signal and the D-VITC of an SD signal. The timecode can also be used for time stamps in the event log.

Page 109 You can use the screen capture feature to capture still-image data of the screen. You can save the captured data to USB memory or overlay it on the input signal on the LV 5490 display. Frame Capture (Single input mode only) You can use the frame capture feature to capture single frames of data from the SDI signal.
Page 110 Display the screen you want to capture. Press CAP. When you press CAP, the LV 5490 stores a screen capture of the display in its internal memory. You can also take screen captures by pressing 2 REFRESH while the CAP menu is displayed.
Page 111 If you press CAP and perform an operation such as changing the measurement screen, the acquired screen capture data is deleted. However, by saving the screen capture data to a USB memory device in BSG format, you can display the screen capture data on the LV 5490 even after you restart the instrument.
Page 112 (Screen capture data that has been saved in BMP format and screen capture data that has been saved in BSG format on a different model cannot be displayed on the LV 5490.) Connect a USB memory device to the LV 5490.
Page 113 To delete screen capture data that has been saved to USB memory, follow the procedure below. (You can also delete the data on the PC.) Connect a USB memory device to the LV 5490. Press CAP. The CAP menu appears.
Page 114 The CAP menu appears. Unlike screen captures, frame data is not captured when you press CAP. Figure 7-7 CAP menu Capturing frame data manually Press TRIGGER to select MANUAL. Press 2 REFRESH. One frame of data is captured in the LV 5490.
Page 115 Figure 7-8 Error standby When the message below appears, press any key except for the power key. If an error occurs during error standby, the LV 5490 captures the frame data at that point and stops the frame capture. The applicable errors are those listed under “Applicable Errors” below whose detection setting has been set to ON through 5 STATUS SETUP on the STATUS menu.
Page 116 Saving to a USB Memory Device The frame data captured in the LV 5490 is cleared when the power is turned off. If you want to display it later even after the power is turned off, save the data to USB memory by following the procedure below (save the data in FRM format).
Page 117 USB memory device. This menu item does not appear when there is no frame data captured in the LV 5490. When the input signal is 1080i/59.94 and all the file types that you can select with FILE TYPE are set to ON, it takes about 50 seconds to save the data.
Page 118 Press 1 RECALL. To display frame data, the LV 5490 must be receiving a signal whose format is the same as that of the saved data. The FORMAT item at the bottom of the display shows the format of the saved data. It is displayed in green if the format is the same as the current format or in red if the format is not the same.
Page 119 To delete frame capture data that has been saved to a USB memory device, follow the procedure below. (You can also use a PC to delete the data.) Connect a USB memory device to the LV 5490. Press CAP. The CAP menu appears.

9. REMOTE CONTROL REMOTE CONTROL You can use the remote control connector on the rear panel to load presets, transmit alarm signals, and perform other operations. Use the supplied 15-pin D-sub connector to control the LV 5490. Pinout Example This section contains a diagram of the remote control connector, displayed as it appears on the rear panel, and a table that describes the connector's pinout.
Page 127 9. REMOTE CONTROL Configuring the LV 5490 “Remote Control Settings.” SYSTEM SETUP NEXT TAB (×2) Figure 9-2 REMOTE SETUP tab Remote Control The input connectors respond to active-low signals. Do not apply negative voltages or voltages that exceed +5 V. After you make a setting, a period of time of 350 ms or more in which the electrical potential is stable is required, so wait at least 1 second before you make the subsequent setting.
Page 128 9. REMOTE CONTROL After a setting is made, it may take about 3 seconds for the operation to finish. If you configure subsequent settings before the initial operation finishes, only the last setting will take effect. All settings in between will be discarded. (In the following example, remote control 2 will be discarded.) Figure 9-4 Remote control timing 2 Loading Presets...

The applicable alarm output channels are all the channels in the selected group (1A to 1D or 2A to 2D). However, when measuring 3G-B-DS or 3G (DL), alarms are output only for the currently displayed channels.
