ANC Counts Tile
ANC Counts Description
The
ANC Counts
tile display consists of
multiple pages, each detailing a subset of
the ANC Packet types listed on the ANC
Watch display.
There are eight pages of ANC Count data that can be displayed. The first seven are given over to sets
of ANC Packet types in common use within the broadcast industry, while the last page is dedicated to
user-defined ANC Packet types The catch-all ‘Unknown’ entry is included in the 7th set.
See the “"ANC User Section"” section of the Configuration chapter for details of how to setup
user-defined ANC packets.
The main columns of the display detail the numbers of each ANC Packet type that have been detected
since the display was last reset and the number of these that showed an error, together with their
value as a percentage of the number of frames processed. The same colour-coding is used as in the
ANC Watch
to pick out the types of ANC packet that have been detected either in the current video
session or in previous video sessions (since the last reset) and to indicate whether any errors have
been detected.
To the right of these details, a set of coloured dots are used to indicate the Input(s) in which the packet
has been detected. The colouring used to identify these Inputs corresponds to the colouring used by
SMPTE in defining the associated video format, which is also the colouring used in the Ultra’s Data
View and Cable View displays.
See the "Cable View Tile" section for details.
ANC Counts Controls
The different pages of the ANC Counts display can be called up by any of the following actions:
Direct selection from a submenu following on from selecting the ANC Counts tile.
Clicking on Page/Set options in the Button Bar displayed when either the ANC Counts display or
the ANC Watch display is selected.
Clicking on entries in the
ANC Watch
tile to display the page of
ANC Counts
that includes the
selected ANC Packet type.
Clicking on the name of an ANC Packet type that has been detected in the current video session
moves the
SMPTE Sample
cursor and hence the focus of the
Data View
,
Cable View
and
ANC Viewer
displays to the location of the ANC Packet within the blanking so that you can see the details of the
packet in these displays.
Where the video is transmitted over a number of Inputs, it may be useful to know which Input (or
Inputs) has errors. This can be done by disabling the inputs (by clicking at the top of the relevant
column), then watching to see how the count of packets and the count of errors in those packets
changes.
