Connections
The PMV 1841 has 4 x 3G/HD/SD-SDI inputs using standard 75Ohm
BNC connectors. The output is an HDMI connector (type A) designed to
connect to an HDMI display monitor. A USB port is also provided which
is used for firmware updates and PC/MAC control using the yelloGUI
software application. (Type B Mini USB - cable supplied)
Operation
The module has an integrated menu system which is displayed on the
connected HDMI monitor. To enable the OSD (On Screen Display) menu,
push the rotary control and the menu will appear. Navigate through the
menu selections by rotating the control and push the rotary control to
make a selection. The operation is intuitive.
It is possible to “lock” the OSD menu to prevent it being accidentally
switched on if the rotary control is bumped.
To Lock
- Go to the “General” page in the menu
and select “OSD Lock” . This will lock the control
and turn the power LED yellow to indicate the
lock is switched on.
To Unlock
- Simply click (push) the rotary control
for approx 3 seconds and the menu will appear. (LED
will be green)
Modes of Operation
The module supports 3 basic modes of operation.
1. Quad Split
- all four SDI inputs are shown in a fixed position quadrant
display on the HDMI output. Each input supports individually configured
monitoring tools and overlays.
2. Full Screen
- one of the four SDI inputs can be displayed full screen. In
this mode the first 2 SDI embedded audio channels are embedded into
the HDMI output.
3. 4K (12G) Monitoring
- in 4K mode the module will take the 4 SDI inputs
and “stitch” them together for a full screen display. The HDMI output is
down converted to HD, and no audio or monitoring tools are possible in
4K mode (image only).
