Video Generator/Audio Embedder Module
STATUS.TXT File – [CONFIGURATION]
The [CONFIGURATION] section of the
STATUS.TXT file provides details on how
the module is actually functioning at the
time the file was created.
SDIINPUT= identifies which physical SDI
input on the module has been selected.
BNC indicates that the Coaxial (BNC) SDI
Input has been selected. SFP indicates that
the optical SDI input has been selected.
FORMAT= identifies which SDI Output
Image Format/Rate Mode has been se-
lected. AUTO indicates that the Auto Select
(Follows Input) mode has been selected.
LOCKED indicates that the Locked (Does
Not Follow Input) setting has been selected.
MOTION= identifies the status of the Mov-
ing Image Overlay function. OFF indicates
that the Moving Image Overlay function is
not active.
ON indicates that the Moving
Image Overlay function is active.
SDIMODE= identifies which SDI Mode has
been selected.
NORMAL indicates that a
valid SDI signal connected to the selected
SDI input will pass through to the module’s
SDI output(s). REFONLY indicates that
the selected SDI input will serve only as
a timing reference signal. The internally-
generated image will always be sent to
the SDI output(s).
EMBED= identifies how audio signals con-
nected to the Model 5152 are being em-
bedded into the SDI output signal. The first
digit represents what happens to the audio
associated with digital audio inputs 1 and 2.
The second digit represents what happens
to the audio associated with digital audio
inputs 3 and 4. Each digit can be either
N, 1, 2, 3, or 4, with N representing no
embedding and the numerical digits repre-
senting an SDI group number.
GPI= identifies how the GPI (general-
purpose input) function has been config-
ured. NA indicates that the hardware ver-
sion of this specific Model 5152 module
does not support the GPI function (applies
to modules with serial numbers 00250 or
less).
DISABLED indicates that the func-
tion is present in hardware but is not active.
EMBEDOFF indicates that the GPI will
control the on/off status of the Model 5152’s
embedder function.
GPO= identifies how the GPO (general-
purpose output) function has been config-
ured. NA indicates that the hardware ver-
sion of this specific Model 5152 module
does not support the GPO function (applies
