Ki Pro Ultra v1.2r1
Since the Ki Pro Ultra can receive a variety of signals via quad, dual or single link SDI, what
follows are examples of how the In Convert, Out Convert, SDI Output and Video Input
work in combination with each other.
The source device is outputting quad link 3G-SDI at up to 29.97fps, and 4x 3G-SDI
connections are made between the source and the Ki Pro Ultra. The user wants to encode
the incoming material as Apple ProRes 422 HQ at a 4K raster size. The incoming signal will
be encoded to an Apple ProRes 422 HQ file on the Ki Pro Ultra recording media.
These example menu parameters and settings would do it:
1.4 In Convert
1.5 Out Convert
1.6 SDI Out
1.8 SDI Monitor Output
2.1 Video Input
No In Convert has been selected, so the signal that is recorded on the Ki Pro Ultra media
is at a 4K raster size. An Out Convert selection has been made, so the SDI Monitor output
and the HDMI Monitor output are cropped to 1080. The SDI output is set to SDI 1-4 YCbCr
so that the incoming signal is passed back out of the Ki Pro Ultra as quad link SDI with
YCbCr values. The Video Input is set to SDI 1-4 YCbCr and the encoding is set to Apple
ProRes 422 HQ. In this particular example.
The source device is outputting single link 3G SDI that is 4:2:2 1080p 59.94. A 1 x 3G SDI
connection is made between the source and the Ki Pro Ultra. The user wants to encode
the incoming material as Apple ProRes 422 HQ.
These example menu parameters and settings would do it:
1.4 In Convert
1.5 Out Convert
1.6 SDI Out
1.8 SDI Output
2.1 Video Input
No In Convert has been selected so the signal that is recorded on the Ki Pro Ultra media is
the same as what is output by the camera. An Out Convert selection has also not been
made because the parameter does not allow conversion if the incoming video signal is
1080; if a conversion were selected, the output signal would not be affected. The SDI
output is set to SDI 1 YCbCr. The only valid output selections would be SDI 1 YCbCr
operating at 3G or SDI 1-2 YCbCr operating at dual link 1.485Gbps.
