DESCRIPTION The V1629 is a two channel monitoring encoder which converts SDI signals to analogue colour composite ones. It is based heavily on the existing V1627, but has two completely independent channels. It is a 3U high Eurocard which can be fitted into either a V1601 or V1603 chassis from which it receives its power.

Page 4: Insertion Delay
2.2 INSERTION DELAY The SDI insertion delay is 10ns. The insertion delay from the SDI de-serialiser to the analogue outputs is 1.44µs. This is the same for the both the YC and CVBS outputs. 2.3 HARDWARE The figure below shows diagrammatically the main board along with certain components of interest. In particular it shows the positions of the 8 way DIL switches and the programmable micro-controller devices for each channel. -

3.2 FRONT PANEL INDICATIONS 3.2.1 REM The REM LED indicates that the PCB is being accessed by the Rack Controller. It is NOT an indication that the unit is in REMOTE control mode. As the Rack Controller accesses the module the LED will emit short blips. -

3.3 LOCAL CODER CONTROL Local control of the coder functions is all done on the DIL switches on the PCB except for PLUGE on and off. Most of the coder functions are inherent to the design, but some characteristics can be changed using the DIL switches on the PCB. - Page 8 3.5 VI BLANKING Normally the V1629 passes any signal in the active video parts of the vertical interval lines through to the coding process. This is useful if they carry Component test signals, or monochrome TELETEXT signals for example. For some application the user may want to blank these vertical interval lines. This can be done locally using switch 2 on the DIL switch banks or remotely over DART.
