Connecting Video I/O to a Master or HD Station

You use the video components to set up video I/O and a broadcast monitor. The only video

hardware you must provide are: a sync generator, a VTR, and an SD or HD SDI broadcast

monitor. The following components are included in your hardware shipment.

DVS Centaurus 1 or 2 board and DVS Breakout Box II — The DVS Centaurus board

provides video I/O. Use the DVS Breakout Box II for serial control of a VTR or other slave device

and LTC output to an audio device.

NVIDIA Quadro FX5500 graphics board — The NVIDIA Quadro FX graphics board

provides output to your computer monitor.

EIZO® 24-inch or Sony™ 21-inch wide screen LCD graphics monitor — The EIZO and

Sony LCD graphics monitors provide a 16:9 widescreen aspect ratio for film or HD projects.

With these monitors, the application runs at a maximum resolution of 1920x1200. For

instructions on connecting the graphics monitor, see

Altinex® DA1804NT video distribution amplifier — The Altinex video distribution

amplifier can serve a bi-level (SD) or tri-level (HD) sync signal to up to four video hardware

devices from a single sync source/generator. It serves the sync signal to the NVIDIA graphics

board and the DVS Centaurus board.

Video I/O for Real-Time Deliverables and Without Real-Time

Deliverables

The following diagram describes the video I/O wiring for both the Real-time deliverables

configuration and without Real-time deliverables. Real-time deliverables allows Lustre to play

out to a VTR directly through the DVS SDI OUT.

The backplanes depicted in the following diagram represent a Windows-based

OTE

configuration, but, it is also accurate for a Linux-based configuration, where the ATTO fibre-

channel adapter is replaced by the Infiniband HCA.
