The S-PG-303M Mini HDcctv Pattern Generator with Serial Control (up to 3G) is an advanced SDI pattern
generator with multi-format (3G/HD/SD) and multi-pattern support. S-PG-303M offers the most common patterns,
SMPTE colorbars and checkfield, for SDI testing thru front panel buttons. Besides still test patterns, other features
such as audio (SMPTE-291M) are also provided. S-PG-303M can support up to 8 channel AES compliant audio
with 48KHz sample rate. With portable size, S-PG-303M is equipped three buttons and LED indications to ease the
control. This device provides a cost effective way to calibrate and test SDI enable video devices and displays.
In order to create the accessibility for SDI system integrators, S-PG-303M is equipped the serial port thru
RS-232 connector and the complete serial command sets are also provided for reference!

Front Panel Operation
Button Resolution
Normally, Button Resolution is used to select different resolution for SDI outputs, and the LEDs from PAL to
1080p will indicate the selected video resolution. When all 4 lights out, the output resolution is NTSC
When pushing Button Resolution and holding for 2 seconds, LED 3+4 will blink once to indicate the current
resolution is saved into the embedded flash!
Button Video Frame
Normally, Button Video Frame is used to select different frame rates for SDI outputs, and the LEDs from
24Hz to60Hz will indicate the selected video frame rat. When all 7 lights out, the output rate is 23.98Hz
When pushing Button Video Frame and holding for 2 seconds, LED 3+4 will blink once to indicate the
SMPTE color bar pattern is chosen and saved into the embedded flash!
