Viewer
Split Screen Mode
The Viewer window can be set to Split Screen Mode to allow another major menu area, such as the
Connections or Configuration window to be displayed in the bottom 2 tiles of the screen.
This is useful, for example, to change test patterns while monitoring the
Picture
or other instruments.
Clicking on the icon that appears when the cursor is over the “Viewer” tab allows Split Screen Mode to
be turned on and off.
Active Cursors & SMPTE Cursors Control Panels
When a specific data point needs to be analysed it can be selected
using the following methods:
Clicking on the
Picture
tile at the point of interest
Using the Active Picture cursor rose
Using the SMPTE Sample cursor rose
All instruments are locked together and share these control
methods so selecting a specific point on the picture will indicate
that point on all displayed instruments using instrument-specific
cursors.
The following keyboard keys control the cursor position:
<

> Move the cursor up
<  > Move the cursor down
<  > Move the cursor left
<

> Mover the cursor right
The focus for displays such as the
Data View
, the
Zoom View
and the
Data Waveform
can be both
shown and moved on the
Picture
tile.
The currently selected position can be represented on the Picture View by a crosshair cursor, the
position of which is principally identified by the X, Y settings shown in the middle of the
Active Picture
cursor rose displayed towards the bottom of the right-hand panel of the Viewer window. The X, Y
settings give the position of the cursor in pixels and lines relative to the top left-hand corner of the
Active Picture .
Display of the crosshair cursor is controlled by the Cursor function in the Picture Control Panel at the
right of the screen.
The
SMPTE Sample
cursor rose identifies the position in terms of pixels (X) and lines (Y) of the
currently selected sample within the data stream – or in the case of video formats delivered as a
number of sub images, its position within the data stream identified by the Input specified in the
bottom right-hand corner of the display.
The
Active Picture
cursor rose identifies the position of the equivalent pixel in terms of pixels (X) and
lines (Y) away from the top left-hand corner of the Active Picture part of the video frame (unless this
position is in the blanking, in which case X and Y are given as ---- to indicate that the current sample
isn’t part of the Active Picture).
