Models 9590 & HD9590 Graticule Generator Manual
2.4.2. Video Input and output (HD9590)
The HD9590 requires that a digital video source be connected to the HD PROG INPUT BNC. The
HD9590 may be configured to accept either 1125 line high definition digital video with either 1035 or 1080
active lines or 750 line high definition digital video with 720 active lines. The VIDEO STD parameter on
the front panel SETUP menu must be set correctly to match the video input. (See section 5.1.3 for
information on video standards supported and section 3.2.11 for information on changing the video type
setting.) On older graticule generators the VID FREQ parameter must also be set to match the bit rate of
the incoming signal.
The HD PROG OUT outputs contain the input video with the selected alignment markers & letterbox
keyed in. Four identical digital video outputs are provided.

CONNECTING THE REMOTE CONTROL PANEL (RCP AND DCP VERSIONS ONLY)
The Graticule Generator can be sold with integrated front panel control, or with a rack mountable or
desktop remote control panel. When the units are shipped with the remote panel, the front panel of the
unit has only the PSU Status indicator.
The REMOTE PANEL 9 pin D connector on the rear panel is used to connect the remote control panel to
the main electronics unit. The 9 pin straight through cable provided can be used to connect the remote
panel to the graticule generator. For longer distances, simply make your own cable of the required length
according to the diagram in Table 2-3. Communications to the remote panel is through an RS-422
connection, so the panel can be located up to 1000 feet from the main electronics unit. A plug in 12 VDC
adapter supplies power for the remote control panel.
