10. ScreenPRO-II Connections — if your system includes one (or more) destination
ScreenPRO-II units, you can configure the units for internal or external routing:
a. When External routers are used, connect two outputs from an Analog
router to any two HD-15 inputs on the ScreenPRO-II. An SDI router
can also be connected to BNC inputs 1 and 2. During setup, these
specific patches will be defined using the Output Patch Menu.
b. When Internal routing is used, connect Analog sources to inputs 1 - 8 on
the HD-15 connectors, and SDI sources to BNC inputs 1 and 2. During
setup, these patches will be defined using the Input Patch Menu.
In Chapter 6, see the “ScreenPRO-II Destination Setup” section for details.
11. Output Connections — all output monitor and projector connections originate
from the “top stack” processor:
a. Connect the analog or digital Preview Output to the input of the
associated Preview Monitor.
b. Connect the analog or digital Program 2 Output to the input of the
associated Program Monitor.
c. Connect the analog or digital Program 1 Output to the input of the
associated projector.
d. Connect the Program Out HD/SDI connector to an SDI or HDTV monitor
as required, or to the proper video distribution equipment.
e. If you elect to output in an interlaced format (e.g., 1920 x 1080i), connect
the top stack’s H Sync Output signal (located on the Program 2 Out
Analog connector) to the Genlock input on the bottom stack.
12. Aux Destinations — you can configure three types of Aux destinations: Aux
(monitors), ImagePRO Aux and PresentationPRO-II Aux. Refer to Appendix D,
“Working With Destinations” on page 393 for interconnection details.
13. Power Connection — connect AC to all Encore and peripheral equipment.
14. Tally Connection — the Controller provides one 25-pin D connector for issuing
“relay closure” commands to external devices. Eight circuits are provided. In
Appendix A, refer to the “Tally Connector” section on page374 for details.
15. System ID — Using the Unit ID Selector, set the ID of the bottom stack
processor (VP only) to 1. Set the ID of the top stack processor to 2 (VP or VPx).
16. Power On — all power on instructions are covered in Chapter 6.
Continue with Chapter 4, “Controller Orientation” on page107.
Note This output only works if the selected output resolution is a
valid SDI or HD/SDI format.
Note Using a VGA to 5xBNC breakout cable, the H Sync Output
line is typically a white or gray cable.
Important The ID of the bottom stack processor must always be lower
than the ID of the top stack processor. Remember that
Master units (ID#1 and ID#2) must be VP, not VPx.
