GUIDE TO INSTALLATION AND OPERATION SDM-874p SD/HD Serial Digital to DVI Converter Introduction The SDM-874p is a miniature digital video interface, converting SDI/HDSDI video signals to Digital RGB (DVI-HDTV). It provides automatic input scan rate detection and supports a wide variety of input formats, including 525i, 625i, 720p, 1080i and 1080p.
GUIDE TO INSTALLATION AND OPERATION Overview Figure 2 illustrates the SDM-874p's major parts and their locations. A high-definition or standard definition digital video source is connected to the SDI/HD SDI IN BNC and the Digital RGB output is provided by the DVI-I connector. Error status is provided by the status LED.
GUIDE TO INSTALLATION AND OPERATION Installation Power Supply The LKS-WSU power supply provides power to the SDM-874p for 110 V and 220 V operation. The power supply is a regulated +5 VDC@2.4 A power source. The SDM-874p employs a mini XLR-3 connector for its power needs.
GUIDE TO INSTALLATION AND OPERATION HD/SD Serial Digital Video Input & Active Loop- Through Connect a high-definition or standard definition digital video signal to the BNC labeled SDI/HD-SDI IN: • The high-definition serial digital input signal must conform to the SMPTE 292M standard. •...
GUIDE TO INSTALLATION AND OPERATION Operation Figure 4 shows the control panel of the SDM-874p, indicating the five slide switches, the Select pushbutton, and the LED indicators that show the status established using the Select pushbutton. Figure 4: SDM-874p control panel Slide Switch functions: Test Enable the test pattern on the output.
GUIDE TO INSTALLATION AND OPERATION STD: Video levels are maintained from the SD/HD SDI input to the DVI output. EXPD: Video levels from the SD/HD SDI input (16 to 235 in 8 bits) are expanded to the full graphic range (0 to 255 in 8 bits) at the DVI output.
