.edge - Advanced -> SDI Inputs
The SDI Inputs page provides access to all of the SDI input parameters.
Operation (using HOME)
The main SDI Inputs page has no content, but provides access to the sub-pages. The All SDI Inputs page contains global parameters that apply to all SDI inputs. There is then a separate sub-page for each SDI input with a sub-page for each feature: Audio, Frame Synchronizer, etc.
All SDI Inputs
The table below describes the parameters in the All SDI Inputs sub-page. These apply to all available SDI Inputs.
| Advanced (tree path) | Parameter | Possible Values | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| SDI Inputs → All SDI Inputs | Input Standard Stable Period (ms) | Numerical entry |
SDI Input (parameters)
The table below describes all available parameters on the main page for each SDI input.
| Advanced (tree path) | Parameter | Possible Values | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| SDI Inputs → SDI | Chassis Fault(s) | Read-only | The first four fields show information about any chassis and card faults/warnings These feed into the Card Status LED on the front of the blade. |
| Chassis Warning(s) | Read-only | ||
| Card Fault(s) | Read-only | ||
| Card Warning(s) | Read-only | ||
| Force Immediate Restart | Trigger Event | Use Trigger Event to force a restart. This is the same as using the Reboot option (from the "Devices" list) or the recessed Reset button (on the front of the blade). | |
| Find Me | Enabled/Disabled | Turns on the "Identify Hardware" function. | |
| Uptime | Read-only | Displays the running time of the processing blade since the last restart/reboot. D = number of days; HH:MM:SS = time (in hours, minutes and seconds). | |
| Update UI Labels | Trigger Event | Use Trigger Event to push any label updates (e.g. for SDI ports) to the user interface. | |
| IGMP V3 SSM | Enabled/Disabled | Enables or disables IGMP V3. Requires a reboot of the blade to take effect. | |
| UDP Dest Port Filter | Enabled/Disabled | Enables o |
Most of the features are described elsewhere in this manual, so please follow the links below for more information:
- Audio Presence - shows whether audio is present for each individual channel. A better overview can be obtained from the Audio signal present LEDs on the SDI I/O tab.
- Frame Synchronizer - see .edge - Frame Synchronization.
- SMPTE 352
- Ident - see .edge - Test Signals.
- Test Pattern - see .edge - Test Signals.
- IP Sender - see .edge - IP Senders and Receivers.
Note that the number of SDI inputs is affected by the SDI configuration. In our example, there are 24 SDI Ins.
The screenshots below show the main page for an SDI Input and a sub-page for its input frame synchronizer. The latter allows you to adjust the Pixel and Line Offsets to each individual video format.
SDI Inputs → SDI#01
SDI Inputs → SDI#01 → Frame Synchronizer → 720p50
