Introduction SPARROWHAWK

Introduction

LCD Video Monitor

The TAMUZ SPARROWHAWK series is a LCD monitor series with active TFT displays, designed as a wall mountable or desktop unit for various video applications in studio or field production environment. It covers wide horizontal and vertical viewing angles at it best.

The wide screen displays allows full screen presentation of standard 16:9 videos (with no black areas on top and bottom or left and right). In the user setup of the LSM xxxW HD version any other format is individual adjustable.

The operation of the system was formed simply and user friendly. The SPARROWHAWK series monitors offers as basic version with DVI inputs as model LSM 1xxWW and a fully equipped version with input ports for serial digital Standard-Definition and High-Definition video as model LSM 1xxWW HD.

All I/O ports are placed at the rear of the monitor, even the AC power connector for the integrated power supply. The SPARROWHAWK series monitors are equipped with a port for calibration probes. Therefore the unique AAC (Automatic Alignment and Calibration) is a standard feature within the SPARROWHAWK monitor series. Added option may be an Ethernet port for communication with external remote systems.

SPARROWHAWK series Models SPARROWHAWK

Differences in the series

To include various custom features, multiple I/O modules are integrated to debut the SPARROWHAWK series. All types based on the unique Eagle or Falcon broadcast interface from TAMUZ.

SPARROWHAWK Features

The SPARROWHAWK series is equipped with a selected wide screen TFT panel from LG-Philips, CMO, Sharp or Samsung production line. These panel types are state-of-the-art high resolution panels which are available for the broadcast application at the market.

The LSM 1xxWW type has digital video signal (DVI) inputs for graphic sources as standard. The LSM 1xxWW HD type has universal SD/HD serial digital video signal (SD/HD-SDI) inputs with selected output as standard. All units have additionally a analog graphic signal (VGA) input as standard. Optionally a composite inputs is available.

All SPARROWHAWK series monitors may be equipped with an IP addressable interface port to allow remote communication from a PC network, see MRC software. Additionally a standard GPI/O port for closed contact remote is equipped. The monitors are DC voltage powered by an internal power supply. The housing is made of black powder coated aluminium.

SPARROWHAWK series Models SPARROWHAWK

ISO Product Quality

For the production of TAMUZ SPARROWHAWK series video monitors LCD panels are used which complies with the standard ISO 13406-2, error-class 1 or 2, only. This ISO standard 13406-2 defines the scales for ergonomic and picture quality.

The LCD panel manufactures itself (like AU, CMO, LG-Philips, NEC, Samsung, Sharp or Toshiba) don't guarantees absolute any errorlessness and don't guarantees that the LCD panels are free of sticking effects.

Pixel Errors

Following limited values which may not exceed are valid.

ISO 13406-2 Typ 1 Typ 2 Typ 3 max. Distance connected Defects

Class I 0 0 0

Class II 2 2 5 1 defect pixel within a circle of 5 mm

maximum 2 defective sub-pixel beside

each other

Class III 5 15 50 2 defect pixels within a circle of 5 mm

maximum 2 defective sub-pixel beside

each other

Class IV 50 150 500

Error-type #1 describes errors by a complete bright (white) pixel, error-type #2 describes errors by a complete dark (black) pixel, error-type #3 describes errors by defective sub-pixels of the colors red, green and blue, which are completely bright or dark.

A single LCD pixel is built by a set of three sub-pixels, one of red, green and blue.

Error class I contains highly selected panels with no pixel error anyway. Panels within this class are rare and very high priced. Panels from the error class II are the most common selection for high quality industry applications. The error class III defines the mass production selection for IT applications. TFT panels related to the error class IV are not useful for a LCD monitor at all.

Class of Usability

Next the standard ISO 13406-2 defines the classification of usability of LCD screens.

Usability Classification Description

Class 1 This permits several users to view the entire display area at the same time. This applies for intended

viewing distance (between 40 to 60 cm, depending on the size and resolution of the monitor) and for

a viewing angle within an 80° cone in front of the screen without any restriction of visual efficiency, in

such a way that brightness, contrast and color is maintained

Class 2 Permits a single user to view the entire area of the display. This applies for intended viewing distance

(between 40 to 60 cm, depending on the size and resolution of the monitor) from every position in

front of the screen, in such a way that brightness, contrast and color is maintained.

Class 3 Permits a single user to view the entire area of the display. This applies for intended viewing distance

(between 40 to 60 cm, depending on the size and resolution of the monitor) from one fixed position

in front of the screen, in such a way that brightness, contrast and color is maintained.

Class 4 Permits a single user to view the center area of the display. This applies for intended viewing

distance (between 40 to 60 cm, depending on the size and resolution of the monitor) from one fixed

position in front of the screen, in such a way that brightness, contrast and color is maintained.

All of the TAMUZ SPARROWHAWK series monitors comply with class 1.

Class of Reflections

The reflection characteristics of an LCD Screen are of particular importance in very bright ambient conditions or in an environment with multiple light sources. The ISO standard provides for three quality classes.

SPARROWHAWK series Models SPARROWHAWK

Reflection Classification Description

Class 1 General office conditions without special requirements as to workspace lighting. Class 2 Appropriate for most office conditions, with few exceptions. Class 3 Appropriate for office environments, with controlled luminance conditions.

All of TAMUZ SPARROWHAWK series monitors comply with class 1.

All of TAMUZ SPARROWHAWK series monitors are equipped with a anti-reflective anti-glare filter made of glass.

Wide Screen Format

All the TAMUZ SPARROWHAWK series are LCD monitors equipped with wide screen active TFT displays, developed to display 16:9 wide screen videos with a full screen image without any loss.

Their native screen aspect ratio is 16:9 or similar, so real full screen 4:3 video sources fills the monitor screen with black areas at left and right, if the monitor is switched to 4:3 mode.

Note: If you use the SPARROWHAWK series monitor in a real full screen mode for 16:9 sources, the aspect ratio of the displayed image is correct!

Some sources don't produce a real 16:9 signal.

The TAMUZ SPARROWHAWK series is able to handle different type of signals, see table below.

4 : 3 720 480 rectangle SDI standard video – full resolution SD 525 format

16 : 9 720 480 rectangle SDI wide screen video – full resolution SD 525 format

Sampling the Video

TAMUZ develops special interfaces, labeled EAGLE and FALCON, to process the video to be displayed on a LCD Screen.

The EAGLE or FALCON interface operates within the SPARROWHAWK series is mainly a scaling mode. This is necessary to do, because there is a difference between the incoming SD or HD video signal formats and the panel resolutions.

The pixel-to-pixel mode takes place, only when the native resolution of the TFT fits to the video resolution. Each incoming pixel information will be transferred to its corresponding geometrical position at the display. This happens with computer signals from the DVI-D port and with High-Definition digital signals from the HD-SDI port too.

Most of the common SMPTE 274M and 296M HD formats are supported.

Anamorphic signals will be shown in the correct aspect ratio. Under 16:9 conditions standard 4:3 signals are shown in a horizontal stretched mode.

As default the active video area will be shown. The interface of the monitor SPARROWHAWK series is capable to show the full video signal, in case of PAL formats up to 625 TV lines or in case of NTSC formats up to 525 TV lines. Therefore you must adjust the setup for scanning TV lines in the menu step GEOMETRY - SETTINGS - INPUT - LINES. The aspect ratio in a suitable way must corrected is after this.

Note: The 16:9 and 4:3 aspect ratio formats are selectable as default. If another aspect ratio or anamorphic conversion is necessary, refer the service section of this manual to adjust your individual setup.

Size Switch

Corresponding to the operation keys at a normal monitor use the IR-remote keys to operate the SPARROWHAWK series monitors. Using the button DOWN when the main menu is not active, you may toggle between different size modes of the SPARROWHAWK series monitors.

If the SIZE button is pushed once, the displayed size of the image can be selected between the UN- DERSCAN – NORMAL – OVERSCAN - ZOOM mode (see image below). The aspect ratio will be set to the corresponding values.

standard monitor in OVERSCAN mode, 576i signal at input standard monitor in ZOOM mode, 576i signal at input

The interface of the monitor SPARROWHAWK series is capable to adjust the displayed portion of the video signal, in case of PAL formats up to 625 TV lines or in case of NTSC formats up to 525 TV lines or in case of 720p formats up to TV lines or in case of 1080i/p formats up to 1150 TV lines.

In NORMAL mode the full active area will be displayed.

In UNDERSCAN mode the total video signal, even the sync area, will be displayed.

In OVERSCAN mode the video will be cropped to 95% of the active area.

In ZOOM mode the video will be stretched or squeezed to an individual size. See ZOOM setup menu for selected values. Default is zoom factor 2.00.

Note: In UNDERSCAN mode even the sync area will be displayed. This makes a H/V shift or delay mode obsolete.

R/G/B Switch

Corresponding to the operation keys at a normal monitor use the IR-remote keys to operate the SPARROWHAWK series monitors. Using the button DOWN when the main menu is not active, you may toggle between the single color modes of the SPARROWHAWK series monitors.

If the PLUS button is pushed once, the displayed color of the image can be selected between the NORMAL – RED – GREEN - BLUE mode (see image below).

De-interlacer in iSport mode. In each odd and even field all the lines are doubled to build a frame. Fast processing with half vertical resolution in

each displayed frame. Good for fast moving images.

De-interlacer in iFilm mode. The odd and even field of a frame build a

frame, processed with adaptive de-interlacing filter, covering four fields.

Slower processing with full vertical resolution in each displayed frame.

De-interlacer in sF mode. A compromise mode, melting the odd and even field to be a frame. Shows jaggies when parts of the image moves. Medium processing with full vertical resolution in each displayed frame.

Note: Using the iSport mode, the displayed images may have flicker at horizontal edges, cause the content is only in one of the two fields (odd or even) visible.

Note: Using the iFilm mode, the processing needs more time regarding the four field adaptive de-interlacing. The displayed images may be later as in the other processing modes.

Note: Using the sF mode, the displayed images may have jaggies at vertical edges, cause the content may be moved to a new geometrical position.

Main Menu SPARROWHAWK

Submenu Anti Sticking

The apparent „burning-in“ of pictures, the so called image sticking effect, of LCDs is undesirable but can occur if the display is addressed with the same content over a long time period.

Here you see a monitor with a so called „burned-in“ pattern. A formerly

displayed grid with hard contrast and sharp edges sticks and overlays as a

ghost image to the color bars.

Unlike phosphor-based displays such as CRTs and plasma flat panels, LCD displays do not suffer from permanent image burn-in resulting from the prolonged display of static images. This is widely understood as one of the key technological advantages of LCDs. However, a temporary retained image may result in such displays, if a static image is displayed for a long time. This effect is not a degradation in overall life and does not appear in typical usage.

However, image sticking can occur and can be considered undesirable in certain applications where 24/7 display of static images is required. Every panel specification from every LCD manufacturer usually includes language about "image sticking." As such, we believe the phenomenon is common to all manufacturers.

How to minimize the effect?

In general, we can't promise that there is NO sticking effect within the TAMUZ LCD monitors.

The visibility of the effect depends on the LCD panel technology and most on the signal content itself. In case of real video images with mostly continuously animated content the risk of a „burned-in“ image is low.

When static signals are displayed, for example feeds from a MultiViewer System or a graphic workstation, the risk to burn this type of content increases. But don't worry for short time periods. The sticking effect appears only at longer influence.

If you use the monitor in an application where often static images will be displayed continuously, try to use the asynchron mode, see menu SYSTEM – PROCESSING. This mode drives the LCD panel in a asynchronous mode, what means that the displayed vertical frequency is not corresponding with the input video. The monitor operates within his native vertical frequency. F.e. a 50 Hz video becomes transformed in to a 62 Hz signal and formerly smooth moving items of the displayed footage becomes a little jerky.

To avoid the image sticking and allow 365 days 24 hours operation, TAMUZ SPARROWHAWK series monitors have an user selectable „Anti-Sticking“ feature within their internal firmware. Using the hidden service OSD menu this feature is accessible and programmable.
