Figure 10

below shows a basic configuration of the ROI-SDI being used to send a

3G-SDI digital video signal from a 3G-SDI source to allow region of interest video

input to a video switcher. As in

Figure 9

,

since the source video is not coming from

the computer that is running Mini-Config, the Screen Picker feature cannot be

used in this configuration. However, you can use the other methods for adjusting

the region of interest selection described in the section for the

"Input Tab Screen"

on page 19

with either the processed HDMI output signal or the processed

3G-SDI output signal feeding a monitor.

Installation

Typically, ROI installation consists of the following steps:
1. Ensure the ROI is disconnected from power.
2. Connect your computer or video console monitor output to the ROI’s HDMI/

DVI/DP input connector. For ROI-SDI, connect your SDI source signal to the

ROI’s SDI input connector.

3. Connect the ROI’s HDMI/DVI/DP output connector to a second monitor

(optional). For ROI-SDI, this would be the SDI Loop output connector.

4. Connect a video monitor to the converter SDI output BNC. The ROI-SDI

offers both an HDMI output and an SDI output for the processed signal.

5. If using ROI-HDMI/DVI/DP, connect two-channel analog audio input to

analog audio connector (optional).

6. If using ROI-SDI, connect two analog RCA jacks (optional).
7. Apply power to the converter (AJA power supply included).
8. The converter will now run using the default factory settings. If you wish to

alter the factory settings, you’ll need to:
• Install the AJA Mini-Config software onto your computer.
• Attach the converter via USB cable (included).
• Make your changes using Mini-Config setup screens.
