  • 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.

    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.

    The SAV08 Card Introduction The AXON SAV08 is an SDI to Composite, Component and Y/C converter with a built-in SDI distribution amplifier. Its main application is use as a one to four SDI distribution amp with 4 analog composite outputs.
  • Page 11: Settings Menu

    5 Settings Menu Introduction The settings menu displays the current state of each setting within the SAV08 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 12 Setup Setup allows the user to add setup when using NTSC signals. The settings of Setup are Enabled & Disabled. The default setting is Disabled. Y_Level The setting item Y_Level sets the amplitude of the output to either Betacam or SMPTE levels in YPbPr mode. In Betacam mode the sync amplitude is set to 286mV and peak video level is set to 714mV.
  • Page 13: Status Menu

    6 Status Menu Introduction The status menu indicates the current status of each item listed below. SDI-Input This status item indicates the presence of a valid serial digital video signal at the input. SDI-Input indicates if an input signal is NA (not available) or Present.
  • Page 14: Events Menu

    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 15 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. The first implementation is the tag controlled switch in the GPI16.
