Video Card Inputs and Outputs
GVSP-3TB-WIN-2IO / GVSP-3TB-WIN-2+2IO
Identifying the SDI video inputs and outputs on GVSP-3TB-WIN-2IO and GVSP-3TB-WIN-
2+2IO models is quite straightforward since the BNC connectors are labeled (SDI OUT, SDI
IN and REF IN). Note that on the GVSP-3TB-WIN-2+2IO, the upper card is Device 0 and the
lower card is Device 1.
GVSP-3TB-WIN-4IO / GVSP-3TB-WIN-8IO / GVSP-4TB-WIN-8IO
The GVSP-3TB-WIN-4IO is equipped with a Corvid 44 card and the GVSP-3TB-WIN-8IO /
GVSP-4TB-WIN-8IO with a Corvid 88 card. Each card’s DIN connectors are labeled with a
number, except for one which is
R
for Reference.
The SDI video card’s input and output connections are determined by the intended playout
channel type (e.g. Single channel, Dual channel, Simulcast... etc.). See “About Playout Types”
in the
Output Server 2 Channel Configuration Guide
for more information.
