(minimum) and 2 fields plus 0.4 ms (maximum). For ARC mode, there must be at minimum 4 fields of delay as the CVR800 must load at least 3 fields of data to be able to do the aspect ratio conversion with 'still mode' processing. In input-locked mode, the ARC delay could be just 4 fields. However, if the user is synchronizing the output to a chosen reference, as in Sync mode above, depending on the reference, and up to an additional 2 fields + 1ms (maximum) delay may be incurred.
Operation via the Web Interface In addition to the unit front controls, the CVR800 can also be controlled by means of a Web interface accessed via the 10/100 BaseT Ethernet connection. Connection to the Web interface can either be made directly or via a DHCP network.
Appendix A: (Automated Aspect Ratio Control) Recognized Input Signalling The CVR800 can be configured to respond automatically to a variety of Aspect Ratio signalling standards, controlling both the ARC conversion that is performed, and the new signalling that can be inserted at the unit’s video outputs.
