Range Errors
OmniTek XR can detect and count where the incoming video falls outside
You specify the minimum and maximum IN RANGE values for each luma / chroma component. Normally, the YCbCr Polarity Outside box is ticked and values less than the minimum or greater than the maximum will be detected and reported. If however the YCbCr Polarity Outside box is cleared, values within the specified ranges, rather than outside the ranges, will be reported. The Error limit setting defines a further threshold for reporting an error, based on the percentage of the frame for which the values are in error.
Many companies set the minimum value for both luma and chroma to 0%, which equates to 64 as a digital video level. The maximum values would normally be set to 100%, which equates to a digital video level of 940 for luma, and 960 for the two chroma components.
OmniTek XR similarly detects and counts RGB and XYZ range errors (where supported). These are calculated by converting the data into RGB / XYZ colour space, and then noting if any pixels are outside the specified RGB / XYZ colour cube. Many companies set the minimum acceptable RGB value to be
OmniTek XR also counts the number of pixels for which the composite signal determined from the incoming video falls outside the maximum and minimum values specified in this dialogue for this composite signal.
The number of frames for which the signal lies outside the specified ranges is reported on in the Video Status window (see page 84) and logged in the Event Log window (see page 104).

Output
For each of the above errors, any erroneous pixels can be keyed out and replaced with a flashing black and white signal. The Output section of this dialogue allows you to select where the flashing pattern will be displayed. Each error condition can be independently routed to the monitor output, or to the serial digital output, or for display on the
