DIGITAL TO ANALOG CONVERSION [SDI > YUV]
The monitor can convert digital SDI signals to Analog YUV. A signal from the SDI will be displayed on the YPbPr analog
outputs. This is a straight digital to analog conversion only. There is no up converting, down converting or standards
conversion available in this feature. This feature works in one direction SDI to analog. It will not work in reverse.
POWERING THE MONITOR
