To supply power, plug in a standard IEC power cable to your Teranex processor's power input on the rear panel. Plugging in Video Plug your source video input into your Teranex processor's video input, and plug the video output into your destination equipment. Note that all video outputs are simultaneously active so you can connect to more equipment if needed. Confirm the signal by checking the LCD on the control panel. The LCD can display the input or output video, pressing the `in' or `out' button will set the display accordingly. The LCD also gives details about the video format and frame rate. The Teranex Express and AV also display timecode and audio levels. Plugging in Audio If you are connecting SDI video, then you already have audio connected as it is embedded in the SDI video signal. On Teranex processors with XLR connectors you can also plug in analog or AES digital audio.

Your converted video will now appear on the LCD and is available on all relevant video outputs. Setting the Latency for Teranex AV Teranex AV has a processing mode which by default is set to `lowest latency.' This mode is ideal for use in live productions, with a typical latency or processing delay through the Teranex AV of 2 frames. To achieve this low latency, Teranex features not required in live productions are bypassed without affecting the overall image quality of your program. For post production applications we recommend that you use the `highest quality' setting, which will enable you to utilize scene cut detection, noise reduction and linear interpolation algorithms as needed. To set the latency for Teranex AV: 1 Press the `home' button, then press `system setup' and then `processing' to reach the `processing' menu. 2 Select `lowest latency' for live productions or `highest quality' for post production applications. 3 Your Teranex AV will restart to enable the chosen processing mode.

Control Panel Overview This section contains a general overview of all the buttons and features on your Teranex processor's front control panel. Everything you need to set up your conversions and monitor their status is right there in front of you. Use the control panel LCD, soft menu buttons and rotary knob to navigate through the menus and make your selections. For example, when setting timecode, the cursor is moved forward or backward through the timecode register using the soft menu buttons. Timecode digits are adjusted using the rotary knob. Pressing the rotary knob returns parameters to their default value. Program your conversion settings by pressing the buttons on the control panel. Buttons are illuminated so you can quickly check the status of your audio and video connections and output settings. Explore the Teranex menus and experiment with conversion workflows. You'll find examples of common workflows in the `Conversion Workflows' section. Some minor features will differ based on the model you are using, but the principles for how they work are the same.

The lowest latency mode of processing for certain format conversions will run at a latency of 2 frames. This is very useful in live production environments to reduce delays between the live action and the image being displayed on monitors or projectors. In this example, 1080i59.94 is converted to Ultra HD 2160p59.94 using the Lowest Latency mode in the `processing' menu. Power your Teranex AV processor and connect your inputs and outputs. Select a conversion that supports low latency, then enable low latency mode. Setting your Input 1 Press the `in' button on the control panel and select `SDI' video. 2 Teranex will display the input video on the LCD, automatically detect the input format and illuminate the corresponding buttons. Setting your Output 1 Press the `out' button on the control panel. On the Teranex AV, the `SDI' and `embed' buttons will be blue. 2 Press the `Ultra HD' button. The button will illuminate green. Select the `P' button for progressive output and the `59.94' button to set the frame rate. These buttons will also illuminate green. 3 Using the soft menu buttons, select `change'. The output video is now displayed on the LCD and sent to all output connectors. The buttons will also illuminate blue to confirm your settings. Conversion Workflows 33 Enabling the Lowest Latency Mode 1 Go to the `System Setup' LCD menu in your Teranex AV, select the `processing' submenu and then select `lowest latency.' You can also access this feature via the Setup tab in the Teranex Setup application. 2 The Teranex AV will load the `lowest latency' configuration for this conversion, which will run at the minimal latency of 2 frames or less. Once selected, your Teranex AV will operate in the lowest latency available for the conversion and features you want to enable. Audio Embedding Embedding external analog or AES audio into your SDI or HDMI outputs is possible in the Teranex 2D, Teranex 3D and Teranex AV. Connect your audio source and select the corresponding input on the front panel, either "ANLG" or "AES." The Teranex will embed the audio into your SDI and HDMI outputs. In the Teranex AV, you may embed audio even if you do not have an active video input. When no video input is detected, the Teranex AV will embed your external audio into internal black or color bars, depending on the selection made in the "No Video Input" menu in the Video Setup menu. Teranex Processor Settings Demonstrations are provided in this section to show you how to set your Teranex Processor for each conversion type using the control panel buttons and LCD. Plus you can find out how to use all the settings available to help you maximize the quality of your conversion. For example, setting the FRC aperture to achieve the best motion quality in a standards conversion, or choosing your desired aspect ratio for up or down conversion. With all the different settings available you get many opportunities to improve the quality of your converted video. You can use the clean cadence feature to clean up potential cadence issues, add noise reduction, change video levels and more.

With only a few exceptions, which are contained in the points listed below, you can map the audio from any of these inputs into your Teranex 2D independent of the video source selected. TIP Use the `input mapping' functionality in Teranex 2D to select the audio inputs you would like for your audio source. You can even map different audio input types to various audio output channels for extremely flexible audio control. `Input mapping' is available via the front panel LCD menus and the `audio' tab in the Teranex setup application. When audio input sources are selected, the corresponding front panel buttons `embed', `AES' and/or `anlg' will illuminate to indicate that audio has been selected from those sources. Analog audio via RCA and DB25 inputs are available simultaneously via the `input mapping' menu. Pressing any `audio' input source button on the front panel will reset the `input mapping' menu to the default mapping configuration for that input. The current input mapping will be lost. Pressing `factory reset' will set the input selection to `embed'. `Presets' may be used to save input mapping configurations for later recall. Also, if power is lost, the `power on' preset will save the mapping for use when power is restored. Only one embedded audio source is available at any given time. The embedded audio source in use is determined by your selection of SDI or HDMI video inputs. If your video source is `anlg', you may only use the audio from the `AES' and/or `anlg' input connectors. Embedded audio channels from the SDI or HDMI inputs may not be used.

For Dolby Digital encoding, you may select up to 6 channels to be encoded. For Dolby E, you may select up to 8 channels. You may select from discrete audio channels, Dolby decoded channels if a Dolby decoder is installed, test tones or mute. This menu is similar to the `output mapping' menu, but you should understand that the sources selected in the `dolby encode' menu will be mapped to two Dolby encoded channels, which may later be mapped to your output. As an example, let's say that you need to encode input channels 3 through 10 to Dolby E and you want your Teranex to provide Dolby E encoded audio outputs on SDI channels 9 and 10. First, you would use the `dolby encode menu to route `input 3' as the source for Dolby Encode channel 1. Press the `next' button on the menu to move to Dolby Encode channel 2 and route `input 4' to it. Continue this process until you have routed the remaining input channels 5-10 to Encoder channels 3-8. The 8 input sources routed to the Dolby E encoder module will result in two encoded output channels. Using the `output mapping' menu in the `audio menu settings' section of this manual, you would map the two Dolby E encoded channels, which we call `encode 1' and `encode 2', to your SDI output channels 9 and 10.

Teranex Processor Settings 52 Ancillary Data Menu Settings The `ancillary data' menu provides access to closed caption, timecode and video index features. Closed Caption Menu The `closed caption' menu lets you configure closed captions for CEA-608B and CEA-708B standards. CEA-608B is the closed captioning reference standard for SD NTSC analog and SD-SDI. Captions are encoded on line 21 of the vertical blanking interval. CEA-708B is the standard for HD-SDI, typically encoding captions on line 9. The Teranex processor automatically detects digital captions in both SD and HD video formats. If digital captions are not present in an SD signal, the processor will look for analog captions on line 21. If the program has captions on line 21 but you're not seeing them, set the `analog in line' menu to look for captions on lines 20 or 22. TIP Closed caption processing also supports up conversion of 608 CC2 and CC3 secondary language services to 708 Service 2, or S2, via the `service 2 source' menu.

This is useful if you want to preserve your source timecode and your input and output frame rates are the same. It's important to make sure that the `drop frame' mode in the `timecode setup' menu is set to `auto' to ensure the output timecode will match the input timecode. NOTE If you want to ensure the output timecode matches your input timecode, do not use an external reference. The external reference can cause a dropped or duplicated frame in the output, which will affect your timecode count. To set the `reference' menu to `input', go to Main Menu>Setup>Reference and select `input'. Prev Timecode Generator Set Timecode Setup Timecode Off Input Input Regen Generate Jam Sync Next Start Start Source Timecode Generator Menu>Input Input Regen The `input regen' mode synchronizes the input timecode to the output timecode and is often used when performing frame rate conversions, such as1080i50 to 1080i59.94. `Input regen' mode should only be used when your Teranex processor is locked to your input video. `Drop frame' and `non drop frame' modes are both supported in 23.98, 29.97 and 59.94 frame rates. However, in a conversion where the source timecode is drop frame and the output format supports only non drop frame timecode, the output timecode will be automatically converted to non drop frame.

Ethernet System Setup Factory Reset Processing Reference Still Frame Info Teranex AV SW Version: 6.1 System Setup>Info Info Menu Output Options Menu for Teranex AV only The `output options' menu provides four output selections, which permits you to quickly switch the output of the Teranex AV between the input video signal, internal black, a pre-stored still frame, or a captured `freeze frame' from the input. Video Main Menu System Setup Audio Output Options Noise Reduction Ancillary Data Main Menu>Output Options Input Black Output Options Transition Settings Still Freeze Output Options>Input Input Black Still Output Options Transition Settings 5.0 Freeze Output Options> Transition Settings Teranex Processor Settings 67 TIP If you need quick access to the `output options'menu, you can assign this menu page to the `menu 1' or `menu 2' buttons on the Teranex AV front panel. Input `Input' refers to the video input that you currently have selected on the front panel. This may be SDI 1, SDI 2, HDMI or the fiber optic input, if installed. Video test patterns, selected via the `Home > Video > Test Patterns' menu, are available through the `input' selection. Black Press `black' to switch the output to the internal black generator. No audio will be output while in this mode. Still Press `still' to display a saved still frame. If no still frame is present in memory, the `still' button will be grayed out and not selectable. No audio will be output while in this mode. Freeze Pressing `freeze' will grab a screen capture of the current live video input. Selecting another button, such as `input' or `still,' will switch the output to the newly selected signal and will discard the freeze frame. No audio will be output while in this mode. Transition Settings The Transition Settings menu allows you to select a transition rate between 0 and 5 seconds, allowing you to cut or fade between video selections on the Output Options menu. A transition setting of 0 (zero) will perform a cut between selections. When switching between `input' and `still,' setting a transition rate greater than zero will produce a fade through black. For example, if the transition rate is set to 2 seconds, the fade from Source 1 to black will take 1 second and the fade from black to Source 2 will take one second, producing an overall transition time of 2 seconds. Audio present on Source 1 or Source 2 will fade out or in with the video at the same rate. A transition to `black' will use the entire time set by the transition rate. If the rate were set to 2 seconds, the fade to black would take the full 2 seconds. Audio present on Source 1 will fade down with the video at the same rate. Teranex Processor Settings 68 The transition setting has no effect on a Freeze frame. When freeze is selected, the Teranex AV will immediately cut to the freeze frame regardless of the transition setting. Audio will be muted. When you're ready to switch from Freeze to Input, Black or Still, the transition will obey the rules of the transition setting described above. In the example below, the audio on Source 2 will fade in with the video at the same rate. Press the front panel knob or turn it fully counterclockwise to reset the transition rate to zero. Output options, transition settings and still frame controls are also available via remote control in the Blackmagic Teranex Setup utility. 3D Menu Settings The `3D' menu is available only in the Teranex 3D processor model.

Video Connections Stereoscopic left and right video inputs should be connected to SDI inputs A and B respectively. Similarly, left and right processed outputs will be available at SDI outputs A and B respectively. The HDMI input and output connections support full frame `frame packed' signals. Video Formats Supported The 2D to 3D feature supports SD and HD inputs, and converts to an HD output. The `3D convert' and `3D camera align' features support all 3D-centric video formats that are supported by the Teranex 3D. For `3D align', both input streams, left and right, must be of the same format and frame rate. The following video format conversions are supported: Input and output video signals up to 1.5Gb/s. Pass-through, where the output format is the same as the input format. 1080i 50/59.94/60 to 1080p/PsF 23.98/24/25/29.97/30 1080p/PsF 23.98/24/25/29.97/30 to 1080i 50/59.94/60 1080i 50/59.94/60 to 1080i 50/59.94/60 Frame Rate Conversion 1080i 50/59.94/60 to 720p 50/59.94/60 720p 50/59.94/60 to 1080i 50/59.94/60 720p 50/59.94/60 to 720p 50/59.94/60 Frame Rate Conversion Independent Channel Processing Image alignment for each video channel is possible via the `camera align' application. Proc amp, timecode and noise reduction settings are applied simultaneously to both video streams. Audio Support Embedded, AES and Analog audio is supported for `channel A'. When selecting `embed', the embedded audio on input A will be processed and outputted via output A. Ancillary Data Support Ancillary data such as timecode and AFD is supported on input A and output A only. External Reference The output streams may be synchronized to either Input A or to an external reference of black burst or Tri-level sync supplied to the REF connector. Select the type of reference, internal or external, using Home>Reference>Type. When using an external reference, the interface controls both channel A and B, enabling both output streams to remain pixel locked, even when adjusted relative to the selected reference source. Teranex Processor Settings 76 Capture and Playback When your Teranex 2D or 3D Processor is connected to a computer via Thunderbolt technology it can be used as a powerful editing solution for video capture, conversion and playback. This is an efficient way to capture virtually any SD or HD video format for your edit project, whether it is analog, SDI or HDMI. Similarly, you can play back your edit through Teranex for immediate viewing on a monitor or television. Using your Favorite Editing Software Some editing software will install plug ins to automatically work with your Teranex, but for others you may need to download and install the latest Blackmagic Design Desktop Video software. This can be downloaded from the Blackmagic Design support center at www.blackmagicdesign.com/support/family/capture-and-playback. Video Capture When an application is capturing video, the Teranex LCD will show the word `capture' followed by the video format of the input signal. For example, `capture: 1080p24'. Applications including DaVinci Resolve, Avid Media Composer, Apple Final Cut Pro 7, Adobe Premiere Pro CC and Adobe Photoshop CC can all capture video from your Teranex Processor. Teranex captures the converted video output. Press the `out' button on your Teranex and check your project or capture preferences match the video format, frame type and frame rate shown by the illuminated buttons. Batch captures with RS-422 deck control may not be exactly frame accurate because of the conversion processing delay. Accordingly, it is a good idea to use an offset or add handles to your captures. Of course you can also capture without deck control. Capture and Playback 77 Video Playback When any video application is in playing back a clip, the Teranex Processor LCD will show the word `playback' followed by the video format. For example, `playback: 1080p24'. The only illuminated buttons will be those that match the video format being played. All other buttons will be unlit and unavailable as the playback format is set by the clip and so no conversions are allowed. Some applications including Adobe After Effects and Apple Final Cut Pro X are always in playback mode. The Teranex Installer software installs the Blackmagic Design Desktop Video Control Panel in Mac OS X and Windows. DaVinci Resolve You can use DaVinci Resolve to capture both video and audio from your Teranex processor.

Image Capture Image Export Capture and Playback 88 Waveform Monitoring with Blackmagic UltraScope When Teranex 2D or 3D is connected to a compatible Mac OS X or Windows computer via Thunderbolt, you can use Blackmagic UltraScope to monitor the output levels of your video conversion. Blackmagic UltraScope software is available to download from the Blackmagic Design support center at www.blackmagicdesign.com/support. TIP Blackmagic UltraScope is perfect for quality control checks of your converted output no matter which SDI, HDMI, component analog or composite analog video input you use. Simply connect a Thunderbolt cable between your Teranex Processor and your computer and launch Blackmagic UltraScope! Installation Requirements The Blackmagic UltraScope software interface requires a computer display with a minimum resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels to view two scopes simultaneously. Blackmagic Design recommends viewing all 6 scopes simultaneously by using a computer display resolution of 1920 x 1200 or 1920 x 1080 pixels. Please see the support pages at www.blackmagicdesign.com for a comprehensive list of the latest minimum system requirements for Blackmagic UltraScope. Understanding Blackmagic UltraScope Views Blackmagic UltraScope has two different views available depending on your workflow needs and screen resolution. You have the choice of viewing six displays in `full screen' view, or for more compact viewing, choose any 2 displays in `2-up' view. The display view can be selected from the `view' menu. Choose `full screen' to enter full screen view. If this option is unchecked, 2-up view will be displayed. You can quickly switch between full screen view and `2-up' view by using the hot key `command F' on Mac OS X. In `2-up' view, select the desired left and right scopes by opening the `view' menu or by right-clicking anywhere in the UltraScope window. Make your selections from the `left view' and `right view' menu options. If you want the scopes to swap sides, select the left or right view and set it to be the same as the other view. The scopes will swap sides because the 2-up view never displays the same scope in both the left and right views. Screen Resolution Requirements for Display Views Full Screen view: 1920 x 1200 pixels or 1920 x 1080 pixels. If your monitor doesn't support these resolutions, then `full screen' view will not be available. 2-up view: minimum resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels. Waveform Monitoring with Blackmagic UltraScope 89 Blackmagic UltraScope - Full Screen View 2-Up view Blackmagic UltraScope Displays Blackmagic UltraScope software is a great tool for maintaining accurate broadcast legal video and audio levels from your Teranex's converted output. Scopes used to monitor your levels include `RGB parade', `waveform', `vectorscope', `histogram' and `audio metering display'. RGB Parade Display `RGB parade' displays the red, green and blue channels of your converted output. If one of the color channels appears taller, it usually indicates the presence of a color cast. This may not be desirable and you may want to try minimizing the color cast during post production using color correction software, such as Blackmagic DaVinci Resolve. RGB Parade Display Waveform Monitoring with Blackmagic UltraScope 90 Waveform Display The waveform is great for seeing your black and white levels and overall image contrast. An image with good contrast will display information from 0 IRE to 100 IRE. An image with poor contrast will have the majority of information centered in the display, with little information in the top or bottom areas. If you are seeing `milky' or `gray blacks' on your video display, then they will appear elevated above the 0 IRE line. To adjust the black level, press the `blk' button on the front of the Teranex and use the rotary knob to lower the black level. If you lower the black level below 0 IRE you will "crush" the image and you risk eliminating shadow detail. Adjust the black level and observe the change on both the monitor and the waveform. Likewise, if your highlights appear muted or dull, they will appear below the 100 IRE line. To adjust the white level, press the `gain' button on the front of the Teranex and use the rotary knob to increase the white level. If you raise the level above 100 IRE you will "clip" the image and you risk eliminating highlight detail. Adjust the white level and observe the change on both the monitor and the waveform. Waveform Display Vectorscope Display The Vectorscope is useful for monitoring the color balance and saturation of your Teranex's converted video output. For instance, if your signal has a dominant green color cast then the majority of image information will be located towards the green area of the vectorscope. In comparison, an image with a neutral color balance will have information evenly distributed around the center. Vectorscope Display Waveform Monitoring with Blackmagic UltraScope 91 The center of the vectorscope represents zero saturation. The further an object is from the center, the more saturated it appears. If your material appears under or over saturated, press the `sat' button on your Teranex processor and use the rotary knob to either increase or decrease saturation. Teranex's `hue' button can be used if the overall image color appears skewed. As you turn the rotary knob you will see the color information rotate around the vectorscope's center point. Unless the original image has a dramatic color skew, small adjustments will usually be better. Histogram Display Using the Histogram is another way to check image contrast. The horizontal axis represents the luminance range with black on the left or 0 in a 10 bit image, and white on the right or 1023 in a 10 bit image. An image with good contrast will display information covering the entire horizontal axis, whereas a low contrast image will display information predominantly in the middle. Use your Teranex processor's `blk' and `gain' button settings to make the necessary adjustments. Histogram Display Audio Metering Display Audio metering display shows you the audio levels from your Teranex processor. The audio is displayed in either dBFS or VU format. dBFS is essentially a meter of the overall digital audio signal and is common on modern digital equipment. The VU meter shows average signal levels, is easy to use and very common on older equipment. To monitor your audio levels, watch the VU meter and ensure the levels never peak above 0dB. Peaking above 0dB means your audio is clipping. You can also monitor audio phase and balance using the audio metering display. Audio Metering Display Waveform Monitoring with Blackmagic UltraScope 92 Error Logging Display `Error logging' records errors in video and audio and is indispensable for unattended operation, such as during long conversions. Errors may be logged for color, brightness or audio threshold levels as well as loss of video signal, change of video format or audio silence. After setting the parameters which define when an error should be logged, you can choose to start or stop error logging, save the log to a file, or clear the log. These functions can be selected from the buttons in the `error logging display' or from the `error logging' pulldown menu. Errors are recorded against timecode and time of day to make them easy to find. If the timecode is not present, errors can be found by reviewing the time of day at which they were recorded. In the `full screen' view, `histogram' and `error logging displays' share the same area of the UltraScope interface. Select the `logging' button, below the `histogram display', to switch to `error logging display'. Select the `histogram' button to switch back to the `histogram display'. In `2-up' view, `histogram' and `error logging displays' can be viewed on two panels simultaneously. From the Histogram Display, select the Logging button to switch to the Error Logging Display. Select the `start' button to commence logging. In `full screen' view, you can switch back to the `histogram display' and UltraScope will continue to perform error logging until you choose to stop it. When error logging is being performed, the `stop' button replaces the `start' button. When the `stop' button has been selected, you can choose to start again and any new errors will be appended to the existing log. When error logging stops, you can choose to save the log to a CSV file or alternatively clear the log. If no errors have been recorded, the `save' and `clear' buttons will not appear. The CSV file can be analyzed in many applications including spreadsheet and database software. By default, error logging is performed using the EBU-R103 standard set by the European Broadcasting Union. This standard is popular worldwide and is commonly used as a template for making new error logging profiles.

Lines from the Teranex Ethernet server will be separated by an ASCII CR LF sequence. Messages from the user may be separated by LF or CR LF. New lines are represented in this document by the " " symbol. Developer Information 101 Connection The Blackmagic Teranex Ethernet Server listens on TCP port 9800. In a Telnet session, type in "telnet" and a space, followed by the IP address of your Teranex, another space and "9800". For example: telnet 192.168.90.236 9800 Connection Response Upon connection, the Teranex Server sends a complete dump of the state of the device. The Teranex Server sends information in blocks, with each having an identifying header in all-caps, followed by a full-colon. A block spans multiple lines and is terminated by a blank line. Each line in the protocol is terminated by a newline character. The protocol preamble block is always the first block sent by the Teranex Server, followed by the device block: PROTOCOL PREAMBLE: Version: 1.13 TERANEX DEVICE: Model name: Teranex 2D After the initial status dump, status updates are sent each time the status changes in the Teranex device. Legend ... Orange text Grey Text carriage return and so on Client generated Server generated Command Syntax To initiate a change, the user should send the appropriate block header, followed by a full-colon and LF, which is then followed by the specific command requested, a full-colon, the value required, a LF, followed by a blank line. For example, to change the output video format to 1080i59.94, the user should send the following block of commands: VIDEO OUTPUT: Video mode: 1080i5994 Response Syntax If the command is accepted by the Teranex Server, it will respond with an ACK message. If the request was not understood, it will respond with a NACK message. After a positive response, the user should expect to see a status update from the Teranex Server showing the status change. This is likely to be the same as the command that was sent, sometimes followed by other blocks providing data specific to the change. For the above example, the following response might be displayed: VIDEO OUTPUT: Video mode: 1080i5994 Developer Information 102 VIDEO ADJUST: Luma low: 4 Luma high: 1019 ... ANCILLARY DATA: AFD output line: 11 CC enabled: false ... VARIABLE ASPECT RATIO: Variable Aspect Ratio size X left: 0.000000 Variable Aspect Ratio size X right: 0.000000 ... The asynchronous nature of the responses means that a user should never rely on the desired update actually occurring and must simply watch for status updates from the Teranex Server and use only these to update its local representation of the server state. Timecode Syntax Timecode values are expressed as HH:MM:SS:FF. Checking Connection Status While the connection to the Teranex Server is established, a user may send a special no-operation command to check that the Teranex Server is still responding. In this case, a blank line is not required following the command: PING: If the Teranex Server is responding, it will respond with an ACK message as it does for any other recognized command. Closing Connection To end a Telnet session in Mac, Windows or Linux, press and hold the Control (Ctrl) key and press the `]' right bracket key, release the Control key, type quit and press the `Enter' key. For example: <CNTL>+] quit Status Updates When any parameter in the Teranex device is changed on the Teranex Server by any user, the Teranex Server resends the applicable status block, containing only the items that have changed. For example. if the output aspect ratio is changed to CentreCut, the following block will be sent: VIDEO OUTPUT: Aspect ratio: CentreCut Requesting a Status Dump The user may request that the Teranex Server resend the complete state of any status block by sending the header of the block, a LF, followed by a blank line. In the following example, the user requests the Teranex Server resend the Video Output status: VIDEO OUTPUT: Developer Information 103 ACK VIDEO OUTPUT: Video mode: 1080i5994 Aspect ratio: Anamorphic Video demux mode: SingleLink Video pixel format: YCbCr422 Analog output: Component Retrieving Device Information The "Teranex Device" command returns information about the connected device: TERANEX DEVICE: The server will respond with: TERANEX DEVICE: Model name: (displays the Teranex model name) Software Version: (displays the checksum of the installed software release) FPGA Version: (displays the FPGA version of the installed software release) Protocol Commands Align The Align commands are available in the Teranex 3D only. They may be used to adjust the alignment between 3D stereoscopic left and right eye signals. In the Teranex 3D LCD menus, these functions are included in the "Camera Align" menus. Size (Zoom), Position and Trim commands are included in this block. Other Camera Align functions, Flip and Rotation, are found in the Mode3D command block. To use the Align commands, the Teranex 3D must be receiving left and right eye video signals and must be in the 3D Align mode. Enter the commands below and then proceed with adjustments via the Align commands. MODE3D: 3D mode: 3DModeAlign ACK MODE3D: 3D mode: 3DModeAlign ...
