Auto Link Switching Configuration Example
For 4K/Ultra HD monitoring (Frame Buffer set to 4K raster – transport set to 4x 4K):
1. Connect the KONA output SDI BNCs in the following manner:
• KONA SDI 1 Output -> to -> Monitor SDI 3 Input
• KONA SDI 2 Output -> to -> Monitor SDI 4 Input
• KONA SDI 3 Output -> to -> Monitor SDI 1 Input
• KONA SDI 4 Output -> to -> Monitor SDI 2 Input
At this time when you view 4K/UltraHD over the 4x 3G-SDI links on the
monitor, the quadrants will not be displayed correctly.
2. Enable the Control Panel “SDI Output Quad swap” feature. Now the 4K/
UltraHD monitor will display the quadrants correctly.
To make the monitor display a single or dual link 2K/HD RGB or YUV output,
simply set the KONA framebuffer to 2K Raster and the transport to 2xHD-DL. With
the settings above, KONA will automatically change its outputs to SDI 3 and SDI 4,
and the monitor will display the 2K/HD image correctly, and vice versa.
The reverse function is also possible, using “SDI Input Quad swap”, allowing
swapping back and forth between quad 4K input and dual link 2K input without
having to re-patch.
