Ultra v2.0a User Guide

H-1

: The Viewer Window

H.1 Overview

The Viewer window is used to display the results of data analysis tools applied by the

Ultra

to the

currently selected SDI input(s). The different analyses may be shown either individually or as a

quad split.

Figure H-1:

Sample View Window display

The range of analyses that may be viewed depends on the options purchased but may include:



Pixel data



Gamut charts



Status information



Eye and Jitter diagrams



Reference Timing measurements

This section looks at the overall features of the Viewer window. The displays associated with the

different analysis tools that may be applied are described in a separate sections.

Note:

The Viewer window only displays meaningful information on a system such as the

Ultra

4K Tool Box

or the

4K Analyser

that includes the ANALYSE option.

Definitions

The main part of the Viewer window is divided into ‘Tiles’, each showing a particular aspect of

the video under test. The displays that can appear on the Viewer window’s Tiles are referred to as

‘Views’. Each View comprises the results from one analysis tool and may include pictures, meters,

traces, etc.
