Base TRD Hardware Setup Requirements
• For the ZVIK, if running with an external video input source is desired, use the
FMC-IMAGEON HDMI input/output FMC module to connect an external video source.
RECOMMENDED:
An HDMI video source is required to provide the external video input. If an HDMI
source is not available, a DVI source can be used, but an HDMI to DVI-D cable/connector adapter is
required (not included with the kit). The connector adapter can be easily obtained at most electronic
retailers or through a variety of online sources. The external video source must be 1080P 60 Hz and
must not deliver content with copy protection or Digital Rights Management (DRM) enabled. Many DVD
and media players output content with DRM enabled even if the content is not DRM protected. A laptop
or other source is recommended.
IMPORTANT:
This TRD does not support input from the camera provided in the ZVIK. Check the
for additional designs and resources.
Note:
When connecting an external video source to the FMC card:
• Connect the source only after the bit file is programmed. Connecting the source only
after system boot-up is recommended.
• Ensure that the source resolution is set to the same resolution used by the demo (1080p
or 720p). See
Running the Video Demonstration for 720p Video Resolution, page 38
for
more details.
• Ensure that the refresh rate for the source is set to 60 Hz.
