Page 6: Unpacking And Placement
2 Unpacking and Placement Unpacking The Axon Synapse card must be unpacked in an anti-static environment. Care must be taken NOT to touch components on the card – always handle the card carefully by the edges. The card must be stored and shipped in anti-static packaging. Ensuring that these precautions are followed will prevent premature failure from components mounted on the board. -
Page 7: A Quick Start
3 A Quick Start When Powering-up On powering up the Synapse frame, the card set will use basic data and default initialisation settings. All LEDs will light during this process. After initialisation, several LEDs will remain lit – the exact number and configuration is dependant upon the number of inputs connected and the status of the inputs. -

Page 9: Synapse Setup Software
Synapse Setup Software can be used to change the settings of Synapse Setup Synapse modules from a PC, either locally or remotely. The Software software enables communication based on TCP/IP between the Setup PC and Synapse frames/modules. Each Synapse frame is addressed through its rack controller’s unique IP address, giving access to each module, its menus and adjustment items. -
Page 10: The Asv12 Card
The ASV12 Card Introduction The AXON ASV12 is a 12 bit analog to digital converter that converts Analog Composite signals to Serial Digital (SDI). The ASV12 has a Frame Synchronizer, video proc-amp, VI inserter and an adaptive 5-Line Comb Filter for signal enhancement. - Page 11 Tracking output A tracking output is provided by the ASV12. This output provides a timing pulse for use with other Axon Synapse devices, e.g. for Audio Synchronisation with a DIO24. Back planes The ASV12 can be used with the BPL01 back plane.

Page 12: Settings Menu
5 Settings Menu Introduction The settings menu displays the current state of each setting within the ASV12 and enables the item to be changed or adjusted. Settings can be changed using the front panel of the Synapse frame (SFR18 or SFR04) or Synapse Setup software. Please refer to chapter 3 for information on the Synapse front panel control and Synapse Setup software. - Page 13 or Variable. The default setting is Fixed. In Fixed mode the input stage is static and expects a compliant input signal with the correct amplitude. In Auto-Brst an Automatic Gain Control is enabled, and the gain is based on the color subcarrier’s amplitude. In Auto-Sync mode an AGC stage is enabled and the input voltage is adjusted automatically depending on the sync amplitude.
- Page 14 The V-Delay setting gives a delay in addition to the reference timing. For example, if V-Delay is set to 10 TV lines, the output signal will be delayed by the reference timing + 10 TV lines. The signal is delayed (advanced) with respect to the phase of the reference signal.
- Page 15 is On. Ext-Frz Ext-Freeze enables the external freeze input. GPI contact closure J9 of the BPL01. The settings of Ext-Freeze are Disabled and Enabled. The default setting is Disabled. Y-Gain Y-Gain controls the Luminance gain of the built-in processing amplifier. The control range is between 0% and 150%.The default setting is 100%.
- Page 16 Emb-Mode Emb-Mode enables additional audio channels to be appended added to the existing audio-groups in the ancillary data space of the SDI stream Emb-Mode has three settings, Off, Append, and Overwrite. The default setting is Off. In Overwrite mode all existing audio groups will be overwritten and the processes group is inserted.
- Page 17 Emb-B3/4 Emb-B3/4 determines which audio channels are embedded by channels 3 and 4 of embedder B. The available settings are, AddOn_A1/2, AddOn_A3/4, AddOn_B1/2, AddOn_B3/4, AddOn_C1/2, AddOn_C3/4 , AddOn_D1/2 , AddOn_D3/4. The default setting of Emb-B3/4 is AddOn_B3/4.

Page 18: Status Menu
6 Status Menu Introduction The status menu indicates the current status of each item listed below. Analog-Inp This status item indicates the presence of a valid analog video signal at the input. Analog-Inp indicates if an input signal is NA (not available) or Present. Reference This status item recognises a valid reference input on the chosen reference input. - Page 19 Audio-CH_B4 Audio-CH_B4 displays the status of audio channel B4. The status can be NA (not available) or Ok. FPGA-Stat FPGA-Stat displays the status of the internal processor of the ASV12. The status is indicated as Ok or Error.

Page 20: Events
7 Events Menu Introduction An event is a special message that is generated on the card asynchronously. This means that it is not the response to a request to the card, but a spontaneous message. What is the Goal of The goal of events is to inform the environment about a changing condition on the card. - Page 21 The Message String The message string is defined in the card and is therefore fixed. It may be used in controlling software like Synapse Set-up to show the event. The Tag The tag is also defined in the card. The tag has a fixed meaning. When controlling or monitoring software should make decisions based on events, it is easier to use the tag instead of interpreting a string.
