1RU Multi-Path Video Converter, Frame Synchronizer and Decoder

1. OVERVIEW

The Evertz HD2014, HD2012 and HD2011 are high performance multi-path 1RU video conversion, frame synchronization and decoder platforms. The HD2014 integrates four independent paths of video processing. An internal router up-stream of the conversion engines allows each path to be fed from any of the device inputs. Each processing path includes full frame sync and up/down/cross conversion capabilities in addition to noise reduction and video proc capabilities. Optional MPEG2 and H.264 flex modules allow the HD2014/12/11 series to accept ASI input signals and generate decoded base-band video that can then be sent to conversion engines*. The HD2012 integrates two independent paths of processing. Each path can be fed from different device inputs. The HD2011 has the same capabilities as the HD2012 except that both processing paths must be fed from the same input video signal.

The processing power of the HD2014/12/11 series in combination with their simple to use front panels make them ideal choices for utility conversion and decoding applications within facilities, ENG/DSNG truck or mobile environments.

Table 2-7: Standard RJ45 Wiring Colour Codes

Note the following cabling information for this wiring guide:

• Only two pairs of wires are used in the 8-pin RJ-45 connector to carry Ethernet signals.

• Even though pins 4, 5, 7 and 8 are not used, it is mandatory that they be present in the cable.

• 10BaseT and 100BaseT use the same pins; a crossover cable made for one will also work with

the other.

• Pairs may be solid colours and not have a stripe.

• Category 5 cable must use Category 5 rated connectors.

Devices on the Ethernet network continually monitor the receive data path for activity as a means of checking that the link is working correctly. When the network is idle, the devices also send a link test signal to one another to verify link integrity.

10/100: This Amber LED is ON when a 100Base-TX link is last detected. The LED is

OFF when a 10Base-T link is last detected (the LINK LED is ON). Upon powerup the LED is OFF as the last detected rate is not known and therefore defaults to the 10Base-T state until rate detection is completed.

LN/ACT: This dual purpose Green LED indicates that the HD201x has established a valid

linkage to its hub, and whether the HD2014 is sending or receiving data. This LED will be ON when the HD201x has established a good link to its supporting hub. This gives you a good indication that the segment is wired correctly. The LED will BLINK when the HD201x is sending or receiving data. The LED will be OFF if there is no valid connection.

The HD201x has a specific IP address that may be set through the engineering front panel.

Off - When the control is set to Off, there is no noise reduction. The

input video is left untouched.

Low - When the control is set to Low, the noise reducer will have a

lower motion detection threshold and a less aggressive filter. This level of noise reduction is used for video that has low random noise, where removal of low-level details is minimized.

Middle - When the control is set to Middle, the noise reducer will have

an average threshold set for the motion detection threshold and aggressive filters. This level of noise reduction is used for video that has typical amounts of random noise, where the module will remove

random noise and affect low-level details, more so than a Low setting. High - When the control is set to High, the noise reducer will have a

high motion detection threshold and a very aggressive filter. This level of noise reduction is used for video that has a high level of random noise, where the filters will remove the random noise, but will soften the low-level details.

5.2. AUDIO CONFIGURATION MENU ITEMS

The HD2014 audio processor and its internal architecture are shown below. The audio processor acquires its incoming audio from embedded, 8x discrete AES and 4x discrete analog (+AA option) audio inputs. In the HD2014, embedded audio from the video supplied to each of the four internal processing paths is de-embedded (16 channels) and made available for subsequent processing.

In the HD201x, there are 8x AES outputs and 8x mono analog audio outputs. AES outputs and analog audio outputs have their own independent audio channel routing, gain and inversion controls. Embedded audio from the audio processor is fed back up to the output of each video processing path. Embedded audio outputs have their own independent audio routing, gain and inversion controls.

Advanced audio processing functions like IntelliGain audio loudness (+IG), stereo to 5.1 up-mixing (+UMX), 5.1 to stereo down-mixing (+DMX) and audio band equalization (+EQ) are integrated into the system using an audio wrap-around architecture. These processing blocks may acquire their source of video from any other inbound audio channel or any processing block. At the same time, each processing block feeds its output audio back into the system so it can feed any other processing block.
