    Analog/SDI to SDI/Optical Converter with TBC/Frame Sync User Guide ENSEMBLE DESIGNS Revision 6.0 SW v1.0.8 This user guide provides detailed information for using the BrightEye™1 Analog/SDI to SDI/Optical Converter with Time Base Corrector and Frame Sync. The information in this user guide is organized into the following sections: • Product Overview • Functional Description • Applications • Rear Connections • Operation • Front Panel Controls and Indicators • Using The BrightEye Control Application • Warranty and Factory Service • Specifications • Glossary BrightEye-1 BrightEye 1 Analog/SDI to SDI/Optical Converter with TBC/FS PRODUCT OVERVIEW The BrightEye™ 1 Converter is a self-contained unit that can accept both analog and digital video inputs and output them as optical signals. Analog signals are converted to digital form and are then frame synchronized to a user-supplied video reference signal. When the digital input is selected, it too is synchronized to the reference input. Time Base Error Correction is provided, allowing the use of non-synchronous sources such as consumer VTRs and DVD players. An internal test signal generator will produce Color Bars and the pathological checkfield test signals. The processed signal is output as a serial digital component television signal in accordance with ITU-R 601 in both electrical and optical form. Front panel controls permit the user to monitor input and reference status, proper optical laser operation, select video inputs and TBC/Frame Sync function, and adjust video level. Control and monitoring can also be done using the BrightEye PC or BrightEye Mac application from a personal computer with USB support.

  • SDI Video: 10 Things You Need to Know
    TECHniques™ Application notes from Communications Specialties, Inc. SDI Video: 10 Things You Need to Know Introduction Life used to be a lot simpler. The days of composite video, a standard that goes back 60 years, are coming to a rapid end. After three generations, video engineers became familiar with the intricacies and subtle nuances of the video signal and what could be expected in a distribution system. Test and measurement equipment became ubiquitous and inexpensive along with our ability to use them with great effectiveness to analyze problems and efficiently correct them. But today, as we move video sources and destinations to all-digital platforms, the analog composite video has reached its limits in spite of decades of innovation to minimize distortions and improve resolution. And now we have Serial Data Interface, or SDI video; an uncompressed, full bandwidth signal that can be carried on just one wire. Even though it is now being used as the signal of choice for high definition TV, its roots go back many years to standard definition, or SD video. Today, we have many flavors of SDI that differ primarily in their serial data rate and the resolution of the video signal they carry. But, before you begin to deploy or expand SDI in your facility, there are several things that you should know that will help you to understand SDI better and take full advantage of all its capabilities. Let’s begin. TECHniques SDI Video: 10 Things You Need to Know 1 SDI is Not Just For Video. The composite video signal was very clever in its ability to combine luminance, color and synchronization information in one signal.

  • Model 5470 Digital Processing Amplifier and Legalizer
    Model 5470 Digital Processing Amplifier and Legalizer The 5470 is a full featured serial digital processing amplifier that is perfect for adjusting and legalizing SD SDI sources. All processing is done in the digital domain, ensuring a pristine output. When set to unity, the 5470 is completely transparent. Proc controls include level adjustment, NTSC style hue rotation, along with video, chroma and setup. Black and White clips can be set as desired. The Detail Enhancer recovers information that has been lost due to poor frequency response in upstream systems. A Split Screen mode allows you to compare the processed output with the original nonprocessed input. Certain values represented in serial digital component may be illegal in the PAL or NTSC domains. The 5470’s Predictive Composite Clipper mode looks for and alters those values that would be illegal in analog composite, ensuring the output can be used for transmission. Embedded audio and ancillary data are passed. If the video processing path has any delay, the embedded audio is delayed accordingly. As with all Avenue modules, extensive remote control options are available with an Avenue Control Panel and Avenue PC.
