 Notes on configuring the Line (AVDL) / Line (Minimum) sync system (in case of

1080 /59i)

To synchronize an input in Line sync mode (S ync Mode is set to Line) with default settings,

the following condition is required:

-Input signals must be within ±0.5 H against the genlock signal.

In other words, seeing from the FA-505 output:

-Input signals must be in a range from -1.5H to -0.5H against the FA-505 output signal.

Input plus 0.5H Input minus 0.5H

1H 2H 3H

FA-505 System Phase (V)

default setting: +1H

1H 2H 3H

Genlock phase

1H 2H 3H

Therefore, the sync system operates correctly if input signals are in a range from 1.5H to -0.5H against the FA-505 output as shown below.

Input signal

FA-505 System Phase (V)

setting: +0H

Genlock phase

1H 2H 3H

-1.5H to -0.5H

1H 2H 3H

In the same way, for other sync modes, the adjustable range against FA-505 output signal

phase should be as follows:

-AVDL mode: 6H to -0.5H

-Line (Minimum) mode: -1.3H to -0.3H

Field: Generates a progressive scan

image from one field of an interlaced scan image. The created image has no motion artifacts, but vertical resolution will be reduced.

Adaptive: Detects whether there is

motion or no motion in the scene, and generates an optimal progressive scan image.

Frame (Odd 1st): Generates a

progressive scan image from two fields (odd/even) of an interlaced scan image. Suitable for the progressive segment frame input of progressive scan signals.

Frame (Even 1st): Generates a

progressive scan image from two fields (even/odd) of an interlaced scan image.

Performs horizontal anti-aliasing for the output video image.

Enable: Automatic adjustment Disable: No adjustment (normal setting)

Allows you to select audio clock signal to use for de-embedding and processing audio data in HD-SDI signal input.

Auto: De-embeds HD-SDI embedded audio data

using the audio clock phase data in the embedded audio. Synchronous and asynchronous embedded audio signals from 4 audio groups can be de-embedded separately. Audio data will be processed as synchronous data if the audio clock phase data is incorrect, or jitter is too great.

Sync SDI: All audio data in 4 audio groups are always

processed as synchronous data without referring to the respective audio clock phase data.

AUD Clock: Always uses audio clock phase data in

HD-SDI embedded audio data to de-embed the audio data.

The FA-505 can detect audio status changes such as an input signal change, and automatically mute fade signals out.

Disable: Disables mute function when change in audio

status is detected. Normally not selected. * Refer to

the important note on the next page. Normal: Mutes when a change on an SDI signal, ADP

(Audio Data Packet), or DBN (Data Block Number) is detected. Normally selected.

Sensitive: Mutes when a change on channel status, or

EDP (Extended Data Packet) presence (only for SD-SDI), as well as the above items, is detected.

Disable: Always passes audio signals without

applying fade or mute processing.

Enable: Fades out and mutes when an error occurs,

and fades in after returning to normal state.

(*2)

and

Page 65

IMPORTANT

Normally set Error Sensing to Normal. Set to Disable for a specific program or duration when audio output has noise or is

muted. The FA-505 fades out audio or resets the delay circuit when a status change (SDI

signal input interruption, signal switchover by a router, etc.) is detected. Faulty ANC data in normal audio signals may also be detected as status changes.

Audio signals with such faulty ANC data may lead the FA-505’s automatic correction to improperly process the audio input and produce noise or mute the audio.

Note that while disabling the automatic correction can prevent such improper processing, the following functions will be affected.

After a signal switchover by router or the recovery of an interrupted SDI signal, delay settings will lose their accuracy to within ±2 msec max.

Audio signal phases among audio groups will not match.

Ch. 1/2-7/8 OFF

OFF Group A Group B

The channel pair with the smallest channel numbers within a group is used as the reference pair and other channel pairs are synchronized to it. If there is no audio signal in the channel pair, the next channel pair will be the reference. Audio signals with a phase difference relative to the reference within ±0.25 of a sample period can be synchronized.

Setting Examples:

 When setting all channel pairs Ch 1/2 to 7/8 to Group A

Ch 1/2 will be the reference. Other channel pairs will be synchronized to the word clock of Ch1/2.

 When setting channels Ch1/2 to 3/4 to Group A, and channels Ch5/6 to 7/8 to

Group B

Ch 1/2 will be the reference pair for Group A, and Ch 5/6 the reference pair for Group B.

IMPORTANT

Channel pairs in an audio group must be synchronous and must have the same sampling rate. Changing the audio assignment of the reference channel pair may cause noise on other channel pairs within the same audio group.
