Video Formats
The FS2 can convert almost any input format to nearly any output format, as
long as the frame rates are of the same family. These are the three families:
•
59.94/29.97/23.98
•
50/25
•
60/30/24
Available input and output formats are listed later in this appendix.
Exceptions to the format conversion capability: The FS2 does not support
reverse 3:2 pulldown. You cannot convert a 29.97 or 59.97 input to 23.98 Hz.
Likewise, you cannot convert a 30 Hz or 60 Hz input to 24 Hz. Outputs of 23.98
or 24 Hz can be derived only from 23.98 or 24 Hz inputs.

Alarms
Whenever incompatible I/O formats are detected, an alarm is triggered and
these results are produced:
1. Lights the relevant alarm LED on the front panel (FMT ERROR, 1 or 2).
2. Displays an alarm in the browser user interface.
3. Influences selection of the first-displayed status screen.
4. Generates an SNMP trap (if configured).
5. Triggers a GPI Output (if configured).
