FS1 Installation and Operation Manual — Front Panel
Status Display
Pressing the
Status
button under the AJA logo pages through the eight status
displays. Normally, you'll be viewing the
main status screen
shown in a previous
illustration. It’s the default screen at powerup. Information contained in the status
display shows the current primary settings for the FS1:
•
Input Format (upper left)
•
Output Format (lower left)
•
Selected Video Input setting (upper right)
•
Selected Audio Input setting (lower right)
For example, if set up to do a cross-convert from 1080i59.94 to 720p59.94 using
embedded audio in and out, the display would look as follows:
If the selected input has no valid signal present, the FS1 displays
IN No Input
.
Note:
If the input is incompatible with the chosen output format, the default
status screen will display the actual format, such as
IN 525i 59.94
. The
video format
status
screen, however, would be the default status screen at that point (since the
Alarm LED would be on), and it would display
IN Incompat
.
The other seven status displays are listed and described below:
The
video format status
screen shows the status of the active video input, the
output format, the genlock source, and the format of the reference signal (if
applicable). For example, if the
Output Format
is set to
Follow REF
, but there is
no valid reference signal present, the
Output Format
section of the video
format status screen will read
OUT No Ref
.
The
sidebar status
screen shows the main input format, sidebar input format,
output format, and sidebar input select. Any incompatibilities between these
formats are shown as
Incompat
.
The
sidebar input
screen always shows the detected formats of the main input
and the sidebar input—to help resolve incompatibilities.
The
power/temperature status
screen displays power supply and temperature
status. If a power supply is unplugged or an error is detected, the display top
line reads
PS 1 OFF
,
PS 2 OFF
,
PS 1 Error
, or
PS 2 Error
, respectively. (When
Power Supply Alarm filter (60.1)
is set to
Suppress
; the display still reads
Power
OK
even if a power supply is unplugged.) If the FS1 internal temperature
threshold is exceeded, the display lower line reads
OVERHEATED
and video
output may be compromised. If the front panel Alarm LED is lit, the reason
should be evident if you check the video format and power/temperature
status screens.
The
close-captioning
status screen shows whether closed caption data is present
on the selected video input.
The
AJA logo
is displayed when no button activity occurs for 60 minutes.
The FS1’s
System Name
has been previously defined (how to enter/edit it is
described in Chapter 4,
Parameter Menus, System Name 50.5
).
