Description
Multi-Input Display
The Multi-Input Display mode allows you to simultaneously view up
to four SDI inputs of the same format. The feature is available in
Waveform, Vector, Lightning, Diamond, Split Diamond, Arrowhead,
and Spearhead displays. If you are monitoring a 2xHD Level B
3 Gb/s signal, you can select to view the streams of that signal
individually.
Presets
Customizable presets allow you to quickly save and recall
commonly used configurations.
Digital and analog
Support for digital applications. Analog support is available with
support
optional composite-analog monitoring (Option CPS).
Fully digital
Fully Digital Processing allows for accurate, repeatable, drift-free
processing
operation that surpasses traditional analog designs.
Waveform display
Traditional waveform displays allow signals to be overlaid or
paraded. This display type allows you to use the Multi-Input Display
feature.
Vector display
Vector display with Composite and Component Compass Rose
Graticules, and gain, sweep, and magnification controls. Traditional
and Lightning Vector displays are available. The latter visualizes
both luma and chroma amplitudes, and quantifies inter-channel
timing. This display type allows you to use the Multi-Input Display
feature.
Luma qualified vector
Vector display that is gated by a specified luminance range. Each
display
vector tile may have a different luminance range specified. This
display type allows you to use the Multi-Input Display feature.
Infinite Persistence
All trace displays can also be set, tile by tile, to Infinite Persistence.
This mode traces waveforms over time on the same display,
providing a visual history of the trace.
Gamut monitoring
Arrowhead, Spearhead, Diamond, and Split Diamond displays offer
user-selectable gamut thresholds so that you can set monitoring
limits appropriate to a specific operation. Gamut monitoring is fully
integrated with the alarm logging and reporting capabilities. This
display type allows you to use the Multi-Input Display feature.
LTC waveform
Longitudinal Time Code (LTC) is monitored in a frame rate display
displays
to allow observation of amplitude, synchronization and phase with
respect to reference vertical interval time code (VITC).
