4.1 Selecting single or dual-input
TANDEM-300 can be configured for ‘Single SDI input’ use or ‘Dual SDI input use’.
Single SDI mode allows up to 8 monaural or 4 stereo audio sources to be routed from
both of TANDEM-300’s de-embedders (‘A’ and ‘B’) for up to two audio groups from
TANDEM-300’s SDI 1 input.
Dual SDI mode can route up to 4 monaural or 2 stereo audio sources from the ‘A’ de-
embedder for up one audio group from SDI 1 and up to 4 monaural or 2 stereo audio
sources from the ‘B’ de-embedder for up one audio group from SDI 2. There are still 8
monaural or 4 stereo de-embedded audio sources, but this time from selected groups from
two SDI streams.
To change the SDI input mode click to place a tick in the ‘Dual SDI ip’ box in the
General area of the SDI De-embedding tab. To revert to single SDI input mode, click in
the ‘Dual SDI ip’ box to clear it and remove the tick.

Warning:
This is the only place in the Statesman GUI that will indicate if ‘Dual SDI ip’ mode has
been selected. Source labelling will continue to refer only to SDI 1.
