Video Path Controls

Accesses the flat field generator, timecode burn-in, text
burn-in, and timecode generator (self-generate) controls
for Video Path A card input.

Note: Video Path B has controls identical to the controls described here for Video Path A. Therefore, only the Video Path A

controls are shown here.

• Flat Field Insertion Controls

Controls flat field insertion, failover insertion, and format as follows:

Enable:

Disable never replaces input video with flat field.

Enable manually replaces input video with flat field (regardless or not if

input video is present).

Enable on Loss of Video allows valid input video to pass, but fails over

to flat field upon loss of input video.

Note: Failover occurs when receiver module does not detect stable lock

for known formats supported by the card.

Format selects the flat-field format when flat field is inserted onto video.

Choices are typical TV and film SD, HD, and 3G formats (refer to
Specifications in Chapter 1. Introduction for more information).

Note: When flat field is inserted (either manually or by failover), format

of flat field is always as set per this drop-down, and does not
automatically track with input video.

Color allows flat field color selection of nine common colors.

Status shows flat field insertion status, as well as status of input SDI on the

video path.

• Timecode Master Controls

Provides controls for using either video or other external timecode source, or
using the card TC Generator self-generated timecode.

• Free Run Timecode Controls

Allows an initial (starting) count to be applied to output video timecode when
Free Run (TC Gen) insertion is enabled.

Note: • Initialization can only be applied when card is outputting Free Run

timecode (as shown by Output Status displaying “Free Run”).

• If failover to Free Run occurs due to loss of external timecode(s), the

Free Run count assumes its initial count from the last valid externally
supplied count.
