Introduction of audio and video functions
16-ch embedded audio meters
Under SDI and HDMI, it displays 16 channels embedded audio meters. The audio meter is green,
and will turn yellow when audio exceeds -20dB, and turn red when audio exceeds -9dB.
Time code(SDI)
Under SDI input, it can display the SMPTE time code (VITC1, VITC2 or LTC) on the top of the screen,
which is used extensively for synchronization, and for logging and identifying material in recorded
media. If no Timecode information is detected, it will be displayed as “TC UNLOCKED”.
Waveform (Y, Cb, Cr, R, G, B)
Under SDI and HDMI input, totally 6 kinds of waveforms which are Y, CB, CR, R, G and B can be
selected so as to check the brightness and chroma distribution.
Vector
The displayed vector scope pattern is available under both SDI and HDMI, represents saturation as
distance from the center of the circle, and hue as the angle, in standard position, around it.
Histogram (R, G, B)
The histogram is a bar graph that shows the distribution of luminance values in the picture.
There’re R, G, B histograms that individually displayed simultaneously, available under both SDI
and HDMI.
Peaking focus assist (red/blue switch)
The Peaking focus assist function is to mark the sharpest edges of the image with red or blue color
under SDI and HDMI input, for users to check if the subjects are focused.
User can set function Keys F1~F3 or GPI pins as “Focus Assist” to turn on or off this function.
Zebra stripes
Zebra Stripes are used to check if the image is over exposed or not by showing black and white lines
on the monitor. It is considered over exposed when luminance value exceeds 90%.
User can set function Keys F1~F3 or GPI pins as “Zebra” to turn on or off this function.
False Color
The false color is used to aid in the setting of camera exposure. Under false color mode, there’s a
color chart on the bottom of screen for reference. The color from the dark to the bright will be
displayed as blue, cyan, green, yellow, orange and red in a consecutive way. User can set function
Keys F1~F3 or GPI pins as “False color” to turn on or off this function.
H/V Delay(SDI)
Under SDI input, H/V Delay can be used to display line/field blanking signal, and to observe the
horizontal and vertical synchronous signal.
UMD
When using external control unit, it can display the video source ID and tally information on the
screen.
Odd/Even Frame
Display the current status of Odd/Even Frame: ON/OFF.( Will display gray and not available if the
current input signal doesn’t support Odd/Even mode)
