Notes:

 

 •  The I/O MultiViewers are only available on MV OUT 1-2 and the Video Processor MultiViewers are only available on MV OUT 3-4.

 •  Audio is not embedded in the MultiViewer output.

 •  Only outputs 5-14 can have a FSFC assigned to them.

 •  In UHDTV1, only inputs 3-6 and 8-11 can accept Quad-Link 3Gb/s 2SI or QSD. All other inputs can only accept Single-Link 12Gb/s 2SI 

without FSFC conversion.
