Format
Allows you to set what the input format is on inputs A and B. Both
inputs need to have the same format. Possible settings are:
1080p60
,
1080p50
(GIX only)
1080i60
,
1080i50
1080p30
,
1080p25
1080p24
,
1080p24sf
720p60
,
720p50

(default, selects the input format automatically conform
what has been detected)
IO-Map
With this setting you can select the 3Gb/s mapping in case the input
format is 1080p50 or 1080p60. Can be manually set to Level A or
Level B
. You can also choose to set it to
Auto
(default), in which
case the card will automatically detect whether the input is Level A or
Level B
Output-Config
With
Ouput-Config
you can put the card in
2x2
mode (2 inputs,
each put on to 2 outputs). When not switched, output-A has initial route
to input-A, output-B has initial route to input-B. When switched output-
A routes to input-B and output-B routes to input-A. Alternatively the
card has a
2x1
mode (one input driven to all outputs).
2x1
with priority
for input-A. When switched both output-A and output-B take the same
input. When set to
Combined
, the initial route is similar to
2x2
, but
the switch behaves like
2x1
. See appendix 1 for the exact switch
behavior. Default is
2x2
. See appendix 1 for the output selections for
the given input failures.
Input-Sel
With this setting you select automatic, manual or a GPI contact to drive
the switch position. Can be set to
Input A
,
Input B, GPI-A,
Auto-GPI
or
Auto
(default). In
Auto
mode the card automatically
switches to the other input when error are detected in the currently active
input. The
Input-A
,
Input-B
or
GPI-A
selections disable the
automatic switching.
For versions before 0709, when in
GPI-only
the switch position
follows GPI contact 1 when non-latching (level sensitive). See also
setting GPI-Ctrl for the possible modes.
For versions from 0709 onwards, when
GPI-A
pool is chosen, the
GPI_A status value 0 selects input A, value 1 selects input B.
For versions from 1823 onwards, the
GPI-Chan A
and
GPI-Chan B
settings are introduced. These settings use the GPI_A status value to
force and invert the current route of the switch with one GPI bit. When
GPI_A value equals 0, selecting
GPI-Chan A
sets the route to input A,
GPI-Chan B
sets the route to input B. GPI_A value 1 forces and
