DV-33128 / DV-33256 with Dual Sync References

Figure 48.

Two independent sync signals can be connected to the Trinix. They may

be different standards (e.g. SD and HD) or different phases of the same

standard (e.g. NTSC and delayed NTSC). For example, SD sync could

be used for one set of 32 outputs and HD sync for another set of 32 out-

puts.

Sync Connection to Control System

Outputs using the same reference as the control system (Sync 1 in this

example) will switch deterministically (i.e., perform frame-specific

switching). Outputs using the other reference will switch synchro-

nously and in the vertical interval but not deterministically. Which ref-

erence should be connected to the control system depends on the

reference types involved:
• If SD and HD are used, SD is recommended for connection to the

control system.

• If different phases of the same reference are used, the phase that is

most delayed is recommended for connection to the control system.

• If NTSC and PAL are used, select the reference for those outputs

where determinism is most important.
