Framesync

Provides video Frame Sync and delay control tools.

•Framesync Enable Disables the Frame Sync function, or selects from choices below.

•Off:Disables Frame Sync function; output video timing matches the

input video timing.

•Reference 1:Allows Frame Sync function to use external

Reference 1 as the reference standard.

•Reference 2:Allows Frame Sy nc function to use external

Reference 2 as the reference standard.

Note:If Reference 1 or Reference 2 is selected and an

appropriate external reference is not received, the

indication appears in the Card Info

status portion of DashBoard™, indicating invalid frame sync

reference error. (Additionally, the card edge ERR indicator

illuminates indicating the same.) External reference signals

Reference 1 and Reference 2 are distributed to the card

and other cards via an 8310 frame bus.

•Input Video: Uses the input video signal as the

reference standard.

Note:If Input Video is used for framesync, any tim ing instability

on the input video will result in corresponding instability on

the output video.

•Vertical Delay Control When Framesync is enabled, sets vertical delay (in number of lines of

output video/format) between the output video and the frame sync

reference.

(Range is -1124 thru 1124 lines.)

Note:Lines refer to lines in the output video format, and not to the

reference format.

•Horizontal Delay Control When Framesync is enabled, sets (in µsec of output video timing)

horizontal delay between the output video and the frame sync reference.

(Range is -64.000 thru 64.000 µsec)

Note:When an external framesync reference is used, the card will not

produce a framesync reset until the variance between framesync

reference and output video exceeds ± 2 clock periods. Therefore, a

framesync reset will not result if offsets within this window are

applied.

To apply an offset/framesync reset within this window, first apply a

relatively large offset, then apply the target smaller offset.

Example:To apply a 1-period offset, first apply a 10-period positive

offset and then apply a 9-period negative offset. This results in the

target 1-period offset being applied to the output video.
