Q-24 OmniTek OTR 1001 User Guide, v3.1
When this option is ticked, the OTR’s generators are available to be used either to generate two
unrelated test signals or to generate the two signals that go to make up Stereo 3D (S3D) video.
Control Panel Mouse & Keyboard
To select Dual Generator operation:
1. Call up the Properties control for example
by pressing the PROPS button.
2. Move the focus to the Dual Generator
option and press the GENERAL knob to
tick this option
1. Call up the Properties control (for example
by pressing the Tab key.
2. Click on the tick box next to the Dual
Generator option.
To return to Single Generator operation:
1. Use similar steps to those given above to clear the tick next to the Dual Generator option.
Note: A side-effect of ticking the Dual Generator option is that the amount of framestore
available for any individual video sequence is halved. If the full framestore is needed to run the
required sequence, clear the tick to disable dual generation.
Configuring the Generators
The generators both work with the same output video standard and genlock but the gain, noise
level, bounce etc. (see Section Q.6) that are applied and the timecode that is generated (see
Section Q.9) can be set individually for the two generators.
When the Dual Generator option is ticked, the Generators section of the Properties control
described in Section Q.6 is replaced by identical Generator 1 and Generator 2 sections through
which the required settings can be made.
Figure Q-22: Dual Generator option within Gen window Properties.
Note: When the Dual Generator option is ticked, the current Generators settings are applied to
both generators. When the Dual Generator option is cleared, the generator retains the settings
defined for Generator 1. The way to set up Generator 2 to match Generator 1 is therefore to first
clear the
Dual Generator option then re-select it.
