1. DESCRIPTION
1.1. The FRS3004C02
The FRS3004C02 has been designed to synchronize four SDI format digital video signals
to a common reference that can be analog (black burst) or digital and deliver two SDI
signals at its output for each input. This device is ideal for digital production
environments in which a large number of digital signals must be synchronized within a
limited space.
The FRS3004C02 module performs the following basic functions:
- Extraction of the horizontal and vertical sync signals from the selected reference.
- Stores the video signals from each of the four inputs in frame memory.
- Generates four SDI video signals based upon the sync signal from the reference and
the data stored in the frame memory.
Each section includes a bypass relay on the rear board that connects the input signal to
one of the output connectors if the power supply fails or the main board of the module
is extracted from its mounting frame.
It is possible to monitor the FRS3004C02 status remotely using a communications
controller module installed in the same mounting frame. In addition, certain controller
modules provide SNMP management and the ability to record events in a file including
date and time information for further analysis.
The FRS3004C02 is a TL3000 terminal line module and can be housed in a three rack unit
(3 RU) UR3000 mounting frame or a 1 RU UR3100 mounting frame.
The FRS3004 family is a set of SD-SDI digital video frame synchronizers, with the
following variations:
• FRS3004C01: Quadruple frame synchronizer for SD-SDI digital video.
• FRS3004C02: Quadruple frame synchronizer for SD-SDI digital video with bypass relays.
