DB6 remote control
DB6 English Manual (2014-10-07) 69
SDID (DID:0x45) parameter
Settings: 0x01, 0x02 (Channels 1/2),
0x03 (Channels 3/4) 0x04 (Channels
5/6) … 0x09 (Channels 15/16)
Use this parameter to specify the audio chan-
nel pair in the SDI stream from which metadata
should be read.
SDID background information
SMPTE2020 metadata are divided into audio
programs that e.g. can consist of stereo and 5.1
audio signals. Only the first audio pair of an au-
dio program carries metadata, and this will be
the audio pair that the SDID parameter should
be set to – e.g. 0x04 for the channel pair on au-
dio channels 5/6 (i.e., the first two channels in
SDI Audio Group 2) in the SDI stream. DB6 only
receives metadata from the
first
audio program
in an SDI stream.
The SDID value of 0x01 is defined by the stan-
dard to be used when there is only one audio
program associated with the SDI stream, and
there is no intended association between VANC
packets with an SDID value of 0x01 and a spe-
cific audio channel pair.
Note that only data ID DID 0x45 is defined for
SMPTE2020 metadata, and that is also the only
one valid for DB6.
Extraction Line parameter
Settings: Line 9..20
Use this parameter to specify the line in the in-
coming SDI stream where DB6 should look for a
SMPTE2020 package. All other lines are ignored.
Input status display
This field displays the SDI signal and its meta-
data.
“License required” display
Displayed when no SDI Metadata license is avail-
able.
To learn where to receive a demo or buy a per-
manent license, go to
tcelectronic.com/where-to-buy
“N/A” display
Displayed when no valid metadata is received.
Please check if the Extraction Line and SDID
is set up as expected in both DB6 and the up-
stream products.
“SMPTE2020 Detected” display
Can only be displayed when the Detecting pa-
rameter is set to Any SMPTE2020. Indicates that
DB6 is receiving valid SMPTE2020 metadata
packages.
“Ch.Mode x/xx Detected” display
Can only be displayed when the Detecting pa-
rameter is set to Ch. Mode 2/0. Indicates that
DB6 is receiving valid Channel Mode (ACMOD)
values (x/xx) in the SMPTE2020 metadata pack-
ages. The actual incoming Channel Mode (AC-
MOD) value will show up formatted as “x/xx” ac-
cording to the SMPTE2020 standard.
Examples of Channel Mode (ACMOD) values “x/
xx”: “2/0” (stereo, the only value forcing the DB6
to upconvert), “3/2L” (5.1 surround, the DB6 pro-
cesses audio as specified by the Engine preset).
Current Processing display
This field display the status of the current audio
processing in the DB6. Remote/metadata-trig-
gered behavior is described here.
In the messages listed below, “Ex” specifies
what Engines are affected by the remote control,
and this relates to the Engines parameter – see
“Engines parameter” on page 68.
“Normal” display
DB6 is processing audio according to the Engine
preset.
“Ex Format Off” display
Can only be displayed when the Detecting pa-
rameter is set to Any SMPTE2020. Indicates that
valid metadata are being detected and have in-
structed DB6 to bypass Format processing (ei-
