Video Black Detection
This alarm detects the presence of a continuous black signal on
the input for a period of time; the condition is flagged only when
the time duration criterion has been satisfied.
Enable the alarm by selecting the checkbox.
The user sets the detection parameters for this error using three
sliders:
•
Threshold (mV) – sets the signal level below which Black
will be considered to have been detected.
•
Set Duration (sec) – sets the time interval over which
Black must be continuously detected before the error is
flagged.
•
Clear Duration (sec) – sets the time interval over which a
non-black signal (i.e. above the Threshold) must be
continuously present to clear the alarm if it has been set.
Use the

displayed by the status LED on the card edge when a Black
Detect alarm is set. Choices are:
