Setting the Input Configuration — INPUT CONFIGURATION Menu

Overview

Data pertaining to the input signals are set with the INPUT CONFIGURATION menu.

When a channel number (1 to 90) is entered with the numeric keypad, it is then possible to set which input connector on the rear panel will be assigned to that channel number, and select the type of signal that will be connected. The channel numbers from 91 to 99 are assigned to internal signals.

091:PLUGE signal (Picture Line Up Generating Equipment)

092:20% gray signal

093: 100% white signal

094:five-step gray scale signal

095:cross hatch signal

096:cross hatch signal

097:dot signal

098:cross hatch signal

099:0% black signal

Assigning Slot and Connector Numbers

Set which input connector on which slot will be assigned to the current channel. The slots are numbered from the left, as seen when facing the rear panel, with the REMOTE connectors slot being number 1, the input option slots numbers 2 to 5, and the analog input connectors slot being number 6. The connectors are numbered 1 to 6 (from the top) for the slot.

Assigning the Signal Type and Format

The signal type and format which can be assigned to each channel number vary, depending on what adaptors are installed in the rear panel.

Assigning serial digital signals

It is possible to assign serial digital signals to the serial digital input connectors on the BKM-20D/21D/22X adaptors. However, at least one BKM-21D which includes the decoder for serial digital signals or BKM- 20D which includes the decoder for serial digital component signals must be installed.

Assigning analog composite signals

It is possible to assign any composite signal to the analog signal input connectors of the BKM-20D/21D/ 22X, and any of the connectors of the BKM-24N/25P/ 26M/27T/28X/48X adaptors. However, at least one of the following decoder adaptors must be installed:

To assign NTSC signals: BKM-21D/24N/27T

To assign PAL signals: BKM-21D/25P/27T

To assign PAL-M signals: BKM-26M

To assign SECAM signals: BKM-27T

Assigning Y/C signals

It is possible to assign any Y/C signals to the input connectors of the BKM-24N/25P/26M/27T/28X/48X adaptors. However, at least one of the following decoder adaptors must be installed:

To assign NTSC signals: BKM-24N/27T

To assign PAL signals: BKM-25P/27T

To assign PAL-M signals: BKM-26M

Assigning analog component or RGB signals Analog component and RGB signals can be assigned to any input connectors except the serial digital signal input connectors on the BKM-20D/21D/22X.
