13 Multiviewer & Input/Output Monitoring Modules
13.1 Monitoring and Multiviewer Overview
Monitor Outputs:
The Sirius 800 routers have four independently-selectable SDI monitor outputs. The four SDI
monitor outputs can be selected from any of the video/audio inputs or outputs in the local
router frame.
Monitoring SDI outputs are not available on the Sirius 830 when it is equipped with external
multiviewer SDI outputs.
External Multiviewer SDI Outputs:
Sirius 800 routers can be equipped to provide extra SDI outputs for connecting to external
multiviewers. The extra SDI outputs provide monitoring of any router SDI input. See
Figure 151.
A multiviewer crosspoint module, used with a external multiviewer output module or an
integrated multiviewer module, does not take any routing capability away from the main
crosspoint matrix. the multiviewer output module takes a copy of each input signal, and sends
out up to 140 (Sirius 850 - up to 96) outputs to HD BNC connectors.
Note:
•
The monitor and multiviewer do not have any redundancy.
•
Sirius 830
: Input/Output Monitoring is not available on the Sirius 830 when it is
equipped with multiviewer outputs.
•
Sirius 840/850
: If Input pre-processing is monitored using the monitor outputs then
multiviewer outputs should not be routed from inputs 1, 3, 5 and 7 of any video
input module as they will display duplicates of the four monitoring outputs.
