• Reclocker/EQ Automute Bypass Select

Provides enable/disable controls for each of the four SDI input channels
that allow Reclocker and EQ Automute functions to be disabled.

Default setting are:
Reclocker Bypass set to disabled (box unchecked)
EQ Automute set to enabled (box checked).

Reclocker bypass enabled and EQ Automute disabled is recommended
when an input channel is to carry a non-SMPTE format signal. Using
these settings for a non-SMPTE signal prevents EQ/Automute function
from rejecting the signal as noise, and prevents nuisance Invalid alarm
from propagating to card status display.

• Output Channel Crosspoint (Input Select)

Controls

From Input 1 thru From Input 4 range in source selection drop-down lists
selects SDI input for each of the up to four fiber output channels.

Fiber output channels can select from any four SDI input, with same SDI
inputs on multiple fiber outputs, thereby providing an SDI-to-fiber DA
function, if desired.

Note: Output 1 thru Output 4 drop-down lists only on 9404 (4x4 Tx) card.

9403 thru 9401 cards have correspondingly fewer drop-down
selection lists.

• Output Module Disable Select

When checked, turns off the selected laser SFP driver module. Disabling
unused driver modules reduces card power consumption and circumvents
nuisance alarm propagation for unused output channels.

Note: Output 1 thru Output 4 checklists only on 9404 (4x4 Tx) card.

9403 thru 9401 cards have correspondingly fewer checklists.
