SDI Output Tab
Screen
The SDI Output tab shows the current settings for both of the SDI outputs. Because the
outputs can be configured independently, one output may be the Primary format and the
other output may be the Secondary format. If an input/output has no video, it will be
indicated on the block diagram ("No Video").
SDI Output Tab Screen Settings—SDI Output 1 and 2
Configure SDI 1 and 2 via pulldowns:
AJA Control Panel, SDI Output Tab
Select Options:
Primary—when selected, this indicates that the SDI output is set to the same format as the
framebuffer. That value will be listed in blue.
Secondary—when selected, this indicates that the SDI output is set to a format different from
the framebuffer (Primary Format). That secondary format value will be listed in green.
This shows that active processing of the video is taking place (format change and
possibly even up/down-conversion).
Video+Key—when selected, this indicates that the SDI 3 video is set to the same format as
the framebuffer. SDI 4 is set to a video key signal associated with SDI 3 (the shape to be
cut out from the video - this will appear as a black and white image/matte). Using the
second Io XT output as an Alpha Channel key, with the video output, may be useful for
feeding production switchers, DVEs or other professional video equipment. If Video+Key
has been selected as an output, the block diagram will indicate the SDI outputs with
video in blue and the key in red.
Stereo—when selected, this indicates that SDI 1 represents the left eye output and SDI 2
represents the right eye output of stereoscopic material.Io XT also offers single link 3Gb
output of multiplexed Stereo 3D.
