Output Server 2 Channel Configuration
Setting a Reference, Frame Rate Family and Output Timing
You can set a manual reference and frame rate from the Configuration panel of the I/O
Device Controller user interface.
Note: The Reference and Frame Rate Family for the channel must be
specified from the I/O Device Controller user interface before a Resolution
can be selected in the Channel tab of the Output Server 2 user interface.
To set the reference, frame rate family or output timing control:
1 On the playout server running the service, maximize the Server Controller application.
If Server Controller is not running, it can usually be found in Start>All Programs>iTX
2.0.
2 Select the Controlled Services tab.
All of the services running on that server are listed.
3 Double-click on I/O Device Controller.
The I/O Device Controller user interface appears.
4 Click the Configuration tab.
The Configuration panel appears.
5 On the Reference drop-down list, if you are using an external reference, this should be
set to External , otherwise select Freerun .
6 If you are using manual reference, select a value from the Frame Rate Family drop-
down list (e.g. 50.00 Hz ).
This will determine the resolution you can set in the Channel tab of the Output Server 2
user interface. See
Selecting the Channel Resolution and Frame Rate on page 32 for
more information.
7 You can adjust the horizontal and vertical output timing relative to a time reference
signal using the controls in the Output Timing Control (Ext. Ref. Only) section. This
allows the SDI I/O card to synchronize an incorrectly timed video input signal to the
time reference signal.
