Peripheral devices such as VCRs and DATs connected to your workstation
allow you to capture and output video and audio material. You can control
this equipment remotely with SOFTIMAGE|DS.
Video Connections
Your system can contain digital and/or analog VCRs and video monitors. If
you use an analog video monitor, it is connected directly to the Intergraph
StudioZ card, and the composite video signal that it receives is of a lower
quality.
When connecting the devices, make sure that all video outputs are
Note
terminated by the video device to which they are connected. Also
ensure that no device is connected to a power source.
To connect a system with digital devices
1. Connect the SDI In on the Intergraph StudioZ card to the SDI Out on the
VCR.
2. Connect SDI Out on the Intergraph StudioZ card to the SDI In of the
VCR.
3. Connect the SDI loop through on the video monitor to SDI In on the
VCR.
4. Set the VCR transport switch to Remote.
5. Connect the COM 1 port on your base unit to the REMOTE IN port on
the VCR using the pipeline cable supplied. You should not substitute the
pipeline cable with any other cable, but you can extend the RS422 end
with other cables if required.
6. Connect the Ref In port on the Intergraph StudioZ card to the House Sync Ref Out.
