Warning Message for System Mode Switching
This message indicates that you are switching from dual-channel mode to standard mode.
If you press
SEL
, the video on Channel A is retained as the standard-mode output. All
output connectors are mapped to Channel A.
When you switch from standard mode to dual-channel mode:
•
No input connected to the ImagePRO-II can exceed the maximum pixel clock rate
of 165 MHz.
•
Similarly, the resolution and frame rates programmed for all input EDIDs must not
exceed the 165 MHz limit.
•
The selected output resolution and frame rate cannot exceed 2048x1200@60.

Dual-channel mode extends the ImagePRO-II’s standard mode to support two different
output resolutions simultaneously for a single input or logo source.
For example, you can scale a 1280x1024 @ 60 Hz signal on the DVI input as both:
•
1280x720p @ 59.94 on the HD SDI output
and
•
480i YP
b
P
r
on the HD-15 output
In dual-channel mode, the maximum resolution is 2048x1200 @ 60 Hz per channel.
You can apply custom formats or pan/zoom settings to either channel. A custom format is
available to any input or output assigned to the channel. Custom pan and zoom settings
are available to any input assigned to the channel.
To enable dual-channel mode, install the 3D/Dual Channel mezzanine. Then select
System
>
System Mode
>
Dual2K
.
After you change this setting, the
Status Menu
displays the default output formats for two
channels, as shown in the following illustration.
Warning! Chnl B logo &
settings will be lost!
<SEL> = Continue
<ESC> = Cancel
In dual-channel mode, the input and output formats are
limited to a maximum pixel clock rate of 165 MHz per
channel. If clock rates exceed this limit, the output displays
the “Invalid Signal” message.
