4.1 Firmware Upgrade

If you are installing/replacing units, you may need to upgrade the main frame firmware. In addition, the main frame settings are initialized during the installation or replacement of units. Therefore, you should back up the main frame settings as necessary.

＊For information on obtaining the newest version of the firmware, contact your local

Leader agent.

1) Checking the Firmware Version

a) Turn off the front panel [UNIT] key LED on the main frame. b) From “1. UTILITY MENU” that is shown on the front panel LCD, select “VERSION

DISPLAY.”

c) Check the firmware version that is shown. If the current main frame firmware version

is older (the version number is smaller) than the newest firmware version, you must upgrade the firmware.

Note: Firmware upgrading

• Even if you are installing the same type of unit that is installed, if the firmware version is older (the version number is smaller) than the newest version, upgrade the firmware.

• Please note that if the unit is a special order model, functions specific to the model may no longer work if you upgrade the firmware using the firmware of the standard model.

• If the firmware version is less than 1.6, it may be necessary to upgrade data other than the firmware. Please consult your local Leader agent in this case.

2) Backing Up Various Settings

When you install/replace a unit or upgrade the firmware, settings must be initialized. When initialization is performed, various unit settings (excluding the LT 443D time setting) and internal presets are reset to their factory default. If you need to retain the settings, backup the following items.

• Internal presets (No.1 to 3: 3 items)

• Last memory (main frame settings that exist immediately before the power is turned OFF: 1 item)

• Ethernet (IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway: 3 items)

I-2

Note: Backing up the settings

• Internal presets and last memory can be backed up on a Compact Flash card (CF card). Ethernet settings are not included in the preset. Please retain the settings such as by taking a memo.

• For the procedure of storing presets to the CF card, see the item of “MAINFRAME” in this manual.

• For backing up the data, use a CF card that is separate from the card used to upgrade the firmware.

3) Upgrading the Firmware

a) Remove all cables that are connected to the LT 443D units. b) Turn on the power to the main frame. c) Insert the CF card for upgrading the firmware into the MEMORY CARD slot on the

front panel of the LT 443D main frame.

f) When the firmware upgrading is finished, the main frame automatically restarts.

Then, the screen shown in Figure 4-1-1 appears again. Remove the CF card.

g) Check that the firmware has been upgraded by carrying out the procedure described

in 1), “Checking the Firmware Version.”

Note: Firmware upgrading

• When upgrading the firmware, remove all cables except the power cord. Be especially certain that nothing is connected to the genlock connector. Upgrading the firmware while the genlock function is in operation may hinder proper firmware upgrading. In addition, the signal condition of the output connectors of each unit may be abnormal while the firmware upgrade is in progress.

• To avoid problems such those related to compatibility, use CF cards (made by SanDisk Corporation) that have been tested by Leader for backing up data.

• Do not operate the keys while the firmware upgrade is in progress.

• If the power is cut off while the firmware upgrade is in progress, the unit may no longer be able to startup. Never cut off the power while the firmware upgrade is in progress.

1. DESCRIPTION

This unit provides genlock capability to lock the LT 443D mainframe with the external reference signal, and three independent black signal generators. The NTSC/PAL black burst signals, principal 20 types of HDTV analog tri-level sync signal formats, and 525p/625p analog sync signals can be used as an external reference signal. The following black burst signal formats can be selected. For NTSC/PAL system, black burst signal with field reference pulse is provided. For NTSC system, black burst with 10-field sequence identification conforming to the SMPTE 318M standards is provided. The instrument continues operation since the flywheel mode is provided even if the external reference signal is accidentally removed in genlock mode. By logging the genlock status, the time can be obtained when the external reference signal is removed. The log information can be stored on the CF CARD. The genlock timing can be adjusted for the entire color frame range when the NTSC/PAL black burst signal is applied; entire frame range when the HDTV analog tri-level sync signal is applied. Three black burst signal output systems with selectable formats are available as follows: For NTSC/PAL system, standard black burst signal and black burst signal with field reference pulse are provided. For NTSC system, black burst with 10-field sequence identification conforming to the SMPTE 318M standards, 525p/625p analog sync signal, and HDTV analog trilevel sync signal are provided. The format and output signal timing of each output can be respectively set. The black signal timing can be adjusted for the entire color frame range when the NTSC/PAL black burst signal is applied; entire frame range when the HDTV analog tri-level sync signal is applied.

The INT mode is automatically selected when no external reference signal is applied to the GENLOCK input, or signal format does not match the specified format.

Use this mode to immediately lock the LT 443D to the external reference signal in specified format listed in Step (3) “GENLOCK FORMAT Selection” even when ignoring any abnormal picture momentarily displayed due to a transient in lock operation.

AUTO (FLYWHEEL) The EXT mode is automatically selected when the external

reference signal is applied to the GENLOCK input after power is turned on. If the external reference signal is accidentally removed during operation, the instrument continues operation under the conditions immediately before the signal is removed since the flywheel mode is provided. The EXT LED blinks in this case. After the external reference signal is recovered, the system is automatically locked.

It takes for a moment until the system is relocked. Some shock may occur in this case.

MANUAL (FLYWHEEL) The system is locked to the signal according to the GENLOCK

FORMAT selected. The EXT mode is automatically selected when the external reference signal with the same format specified to the GENLOCK input is applied after power is turned on. If the external reference signal is accidentally removed during operation, the instrument continues operation under the conditions immediately before the signal is removed since the flywheel mode is provided. The EXT LED blinks in this case. The flywheel mode will be held until the reset operation is performed via the front panel and the ENTER key is pressed even after the external reference signal is recovered.

Use this mode to immediately relock the LT 443D to the external reference signal in specified format, listed in Step (3) “GENLOCK FORMAT Selection,” after operation is completed if the system is unlocked and relock operation is not required.
