Page 7: Installation
Before handling the card it is important to minimize the potential effects of static electricity. It is therefore recommended that an ESD strap be worn. Locate on a 7700 chassis three adjacent vacant slots. Unpack the 7780DEC-MP2HD and separate the rear panel from the main card. Locate on the rear of the rack the three slots and remove the blanking panels. - Page 8 7700 MultiFrame Manual 7780DEC-MP2HD MPEG2 SD/HD Decoder Figure 2-2: 7700 Chassis and 7780DEC-MP2HD Rear Panel Before inserting the front card, connect the serial cable to the board using the serial cable provided. Now insert the 7780DEC-MP2HD card into the corresponding front slots ensuring the card lines up with the slot runners on the bottom and the top of the chassis.
- Page 9 7700 MultiFrame Manual 7780DEC-MP2HD MPEG2 SD/HD Decoder Connect the 9-pin d-type end of the serial cable to the serial port of your computer. Open a Terminal session and configure the port for the following configuration: Bits per second 115200 Data Bits...

7780DEC-MP2HD MPEG2 SD/HD Decoder (5) Engineering/Debug This menu is for Evertz personnel only. You may be requested to access and execute options within this menu when seeking technical support from Evertz. Guidance will be given should this be required. Before is it possible to configure the card via VLPro it is first necessary to configure the initial basic network settings via the serial cable. -
Page 11: Connecting To Vlpro
7700 MultiFrame Manual 7780DEC-MP2HD MPEG2 SD/HD Decoder 2.3. CONNECTING TO VLPRO This chapter assumes that the VLPro server and VLPro client are already configured for your network and you have basic knowledge of the VLPro interface. It also assumes that the user or network administrator has already added the 7780DEC-MP2HD jar file to the server and both the client and server applications have been restarted. -
Page 12: Pro Hardware Configuration
VLPro finds the card and confirms its configuration. Please consult your network administrator if you continue to have problems connecting the card with VLPro, alternatively contact Evertz Microsystems Ltd. or your authorized reseller for technical support. 7780DEC-MP2HD - 12 Revision 1.1... -

Output Video Colour: Options are Black or Blue, this is the colour that will be output when the input is lost. NOTE: Using Blue is a good compliment to the Evertz MVP/VIP systems, which by default, use Green to signify loss of the input. Thus a blue screen will indicate a loss of source at the encoder, not at the MVP/VIP. -

P1 Necessary for Decoding • TS_sync_loss: The most important function for the evaluation of data from the MPEG-2 TS is the sync acquisition. The actual synchronization of the TS depends on the number of correct sync bytes necessary for the device to synchronize;... - Page 26 7700 MultiFrame Manual 7780DEC-MP2HD MPEG2 SD/HD Decoder • PCR_repetition_error: The PCRs are used to re-generate the local 27 MHz system clock. If the PCR do not arrive with sufficient regularity then this clock may jitter or drift. The receiver/decoder may even go out of lock. This error indicates that the time interval between two consecutive PCR values is more than 40 ms.
