Note that whilst the lookup table adjusts how the waveforms and the Vector Scope are displayed, the data shown in the Data View window is always the exact data on the serial inputs.

Output Format

Where OmniTek XR includes the Dual Link option, it is possible to produce either single- link or dual-link output from either single-link or dual-link input. It is further possible to produce this output in either YUV, RGB or XYZ format as required.

The key to the operation is the selection of the Dual-linkoption on the Video Standard toolbar (see page 36). When this option is ticked, the facility to handle both dual-link input and dual-link output is enabled. The Video Standard toolbar is also used to set the system for the video standard of the input.

With Dual-linkticked on the Video Standard toolbar, it is then possible to control whether the output is single-link or dual-link, and YUV, RGB or XYZ format, using the options offered here in the Output section of the Video: Dual Link page of the Engineering Settings control window.

Picture Settings

Picture State Errors

Where the Motion-Capture option is selected, OmniTek XR can detect whether the picture is moving or frozen, or whether the picture has gone to black, or to black and white. All three detectors have individual timeouts, with the condition not being detected until that time interval has elapsed. The settings for the detectors are configured here.

Motion Content

A level of filtering can be applied to the picture. This is designed to accommodate an analog VTR that is parked on a single frame. While the picture is frozen, the varying analog noise from the VTR will mean that each frame is actually slightly different. The filter setting removes a certain amount of noise. What is tested is the filtered image.

The filtering is actually based on an equivalent noise level. Thus if you have a uniform image, and add -36dB of noise to it, then setting this value to -36dB means that the detector is on the threshold of noting the image as moving or not. Following on from this, a setting of -6dB will filter out high levels of noise, and a setting of -54dB will only filter out a very tiny amount of noise.
