FS4 Frame Synchronizer/Converter v1.1
3.3 Monitor Map
(Single Ch only) This parameter selects which Video Processor output will be sent to the
Monitor output. The same video and embedded audio is sent to both the BNC and HDMI
connectors.
4.1 SDI1 3G Detect
This parameter configures 3G operation of the SDI 1 video input.
In
Auto Detect
mode, the hardware looks for SMPTE 352 Payload ID ANC data on the
video inputs to determine whether there are two independent 1.5G signals (Dual Stream)
or a single 1080p50/60 signal. If there is no SMPTE 352 data, the default is to assume
1080p50/60
(single), but you can manually instruct the FS4 to always assume either
1080p50/60
or
Dual Stream
by selecting one of those choices.
In
1080p50/60
mode, the system always assumes that the input is a single 1080p50/60
signal (even if there is SMPTE 352 data to the contrary).
In
Dual Stream
mode, the system always assumes that the input consists of two
multiplexed independent video streams i.e. 3G-LvlB-DS (even if there is SMPTE 352 data
to the contrary). The signals are demuxed as shown.

4.2 SDI2 Input
Protect
This parameter allows you to protect Input SDI 2 from being taken by a
Dual Stream
selection made with
SDI1 3G Detect
above.
In the
Normal
setting (default), the SDI 2 video signal always comes from the SDI 2
physical input. Choosing
Auto Detect
or
Dual Stream
in
SDI1 3G Detect
does not switch
away from the physical input.
VID1 Output (default)
VID2 Output
VID3 Output
VID4 Output
Selects which Video Processor’s output appears on the Monitor
Outputs.
Auto Detect (default)
1080p50/60
Dual Stream
Automatically detects presence of 1080p50/60 or Dual
Stream video.
Configures the SDI1 input for 1080p50/60 (single) video.
Configures SDI 1 for Dual Stream 3G video (uses SDI 1
and SDI 2 in Input Crosspoint matrix).
