Additional functions include:
•
audio source preview monitoring
•
Correction and masking of corrupted audio data
•
HANC processor for data packet management
•
optional SDI ‘PLL’
•
AES breakout for external processing
•
external AES or word clock reference input for digital output modules
•
EDH insertion on embedder and de-embedders
•
control and status monitoring via board edge or frame/remote control panel or
Statesman
•
buffered SDI and AES outputs
•
audio error masking and protection in de-embedders – handles untimed or
asynchronous SDI with minimum corruption
•
GPI control of configuration set-ups
Control is available from an active control panels (future option), the card edge or by
serial control from Statesman, a dedicated software application.
TANDEM-300 has a single SDI output and two SDI inputs. Up to two audio option cards
may be fitted in either of two positions. The terms Side 1 and Side 2 are used to describe
the option card positions.
The option card position for Side 1 is at the top of the modules and the slot for Side 2 is at
the bottom of the module. An 18 volt regulator option card is also required for analogue
input or output cards.
