Input EQ
Long cables have to be equalized on the input port. The 'Auto' setting gives good result in
most cases. The 'Disabled' setting switches off equalization.
Video signal info
The detected incoming signal resolution and signal type (SD, HD or 3G) is shown. The
active mode indicates the signal type which is currently forwarded to the crosspoint (DVI
or HDMI).
Audio signal info
Sampling frequency and the number of audio channels are shown.
SDI audio channel allocation
The incoming SDI embedded audio channels can be rearranged and allocated to HDMI
audio channels. The channel allocation setups can be saved as presets. SDI audio
allocation presets are common for all SDI input ports in the matrix.
3G-SDI signals can have up to 16 audio channels in 4 groups. The input port can work
with any 2 groups of the 4.
Presets
There are 4 factory presets for the most common audio channel allocations. Moreover
there are 5 user configurable presets which can be renamed as well.
To load an audio allocation preset, select the desired preset from the drop down list and
then press LOAD. The audio channel crosspoint shows the current allocation.
To rename a user audio allocation preset, select the desired preset from the drop down
list and then press RENAME. Type the new name in the pop up window and click OK.
Preset names can be up to 5 characters long.
HDMI audio channel allocation
The forwarded HDMI signal has to be set up
correctly to indicate the channel allocation.
This helps the connected display device or AV
receiver to know which audio channels have
to be used for which speakers.
Select how many audio channels (speakers)
have to be used. Then select the desired
speaker assignment. These settings define
the 'outputs' of the below audio channel
crosspoint.
Audio channel crosspoint
This crosspoint view can be used to set up
the channel allocation between the incoming
SDI embedded audio and the forwarded
HDMI embedded audio.
The columns represent the channels of the
incoming SDI audio channels. The rows
represent the channels of the forwarded HDMI embedded audio. SDI audio channels are
highlighted with yellow background if there is a signal detected.
6.3.9. Output parameter settings
By clicking on an output label a dialog window appears showing the parameters for the
corresponding output. Some settings are only accessible with certain output boards. The
exact look of the setting window may depend on the type of the board because the
different boards have different capabilities.
