CHAPTER 1: Installation
Introduction
Overview
The iVAM1-12G is a 1RU multichannel multi-source audio/video monitor with basic
12G-SDI and analog inputs. It may also be purchased with a large variety of other
inputs or these may be added later at the need arises. Refer to the Specifications
section of this manual or contact Wohler Sales for more information.
The iVAM1-12G is compact and simple to operate, with straightforward controls. It
has a touch screen LCD display providing either video or high resolution level
meters, and in addition has an HDMI output. Any channels (or channel pairs) from
any audio/video source stream may be monitored. Either 8 or 16 channel meters
can be displayed.
The iVAM1-12G includes two 12G SDI inputs and it can monitor both video and
audio from them. Standard features include Loudness measurement, phase status
and HDR detection. Optional modules will allow decoding of an additional SDI input,
MADI, AES3, Dolby D, DD+, E, SMPTE 2110, SMPTE 2022-6, and AES streams. It
contains APIs for remote management. License other signal formats and processing
options, including Dolby, AoIP (Dante or Ravenna), ST 2110, and others as and
when needed.
Setups are created and configured using local menus and a web browser over a
network connection to the integral web server of the iVAM1-12G. The web server
will also allow you to view the audio meters remotely.
