XHD-3902 Installation and Operation Manual 1

Chapter 1: Introduction

Product Description

Single-Channel ConversionAs the naming structure indicates, the “U” version of the XHD-3902 is an upconverter; the “C” version is a crossconverter, and the “D” version is a downconverter. The “A” version is a standard-definition aspect ratio converter. XHD-3902-U, -C, and -D modules include the ARC capabilities of the “-A” version. The XHD-3902 is also available in a “-UCD” version, capable of any of these different types of conversion, one at a time.

Multiple Path ConversionThere are two multiple path converters in the XHD-3902 platform: the XHD-3902-M and the XHD-3902-KF. The “-M” package is a system capable of simultaneously processing two independent parallel paths of upconversion, crossconversion, or downconversion. “-KF” modules simultaneously upconvert two independent channels, making it ideal for HD key/fill applications where the key and fill signals are SD-SDI and require upconversion to HD-SDI. XHD-3902 modules with the “-BC” suffix (for example, the XHD-3902-M-BC) provide discrete audio processing in addition to upconversion, crossconversion, or downconversion.License key options permit you to upgrade your existing XHD-3902 converter to a variety of additional capabilities. (See “Upgrading License Keys” on page 22 for more information.)All of the XHD-3902 modules fit into NEO rack-mounted frames. XHD-3902-U,-C, and -D modules that convert embedded audio require single-height back modules, while the discrete AES audio “-BC” versions require a double-height back module. XHD-3902-M and XHD-3902-KF front modules require a double-height back module (for the embedded audio version) or a triple-height back module (for the “-BC” discrete and embedded version).You can control XHD-3902 modules at the card edge, and by using CCS-enabled control panels and software applications such as CCS PilotTM or NavigatorTM.

Back ModulesIn a NEO frame, back modules are placed directly behind their respective front modules, facing the rear. Back modules are designated by the suffix “-BM.” For example, the back module of an XHD-3902-U front module is an “XHD-3902-BM.” Depending upon which front modules are used, the XHD-3902 back modules can be single-, double-, or triple-height.

XHD-3902-U,-C,-D, and -A VersionsFigure 1-2 shows the back module for a single embedded audio XHD-3902 converter; Figure 1-3 shows the back module for a single AES/embedded audio XHD-3902-BC converter.

Installing XHD-3902 ModulesTo configure XHD-3902 modules for use, you must first ensure that the module jumpers are properly set (see page 20 for details). Subject to the restrictions described in Table 2-1, you can install XHD-3902 modules into your frame using the standard procedures described in the NEO FR-3901, FR-3903, and FR-3923 Mounting Frames Installation and Operation Manual.

NOTE

Before powering up your XHD-3902 module, ensure that you have connected a video source to one of the inputs. This will prevent the module from defaulting to color bars. See page 68 for details.

When inserting front modules into a triple-height back module for the XHD-3902-M-BC or XHD-3902-KF-BC, use the second and third slots in the back module. (The first slot is not functional.) The top front module in this configuration is always Channel A.Table 2-1 shows the compatibility of different front and back modules.

Upgrading License KeysBy purchasing a software license key option, you can upgrade your XHD-3902 to a number of different capabilities. (The ARC feature is already included in each of the converters.) Table 2-3 below shows the upgrade capabilities that can be added to different XHD-3902 modules.

NOTE

An “-M” license enables up/down/cross functionality, but only allows the given upgraded front module to operate in an XHD-3902-M system (and not as a standalone module). “-UCD” licenses allow given front modules to operate as standalone XHD-3902-UCD units, or as XHD-3902-M units when plugged into XHD-3902-M back modules.

See page 64 for additional information about the XHD-3902-OPT-DVB Teletext license, and page 62 for information about I-Wings.

XHD-3902 modules are preconfigured with the license key you originally purchased. Although various conversion options will be visible in the x3902Mode parameter at the card-edge (see page 120), only the licensed options will be enabled.

Obtaining the Serial NumberWhen you order a new license key, Sales staff will ask you to provide the serial number of the module. This number can be obtained from the Serial Number parameter (see page 120) using either CCS Pilot/Navigator software or card-edge controls.To find the serial number in CCS software, view the XHD-3902 module in Control mode and follow this path: Other > Serial Number.To find the serial number at the module's card edge, follow these steps:1. If the module is not in Tree View, scroll backwards to Setup > Nav

Mode > Tree View.2. Follow this path: Other > Serial Number.

Installing the Software License Key OptionYou can install the software license key using either CCS Pilot/Navigator software or card-edge controls. To install the software license key, follow these steps:1. Enter the key number in the License Key window (Other >

License Key on page 120) in CCS Pilot/Navigator or at the card edge.

2. Check the read-only License Key Status parameter (Other > License Status on page 120). If Key Validated appears, the license key upgrade was successful. If Key Restored appears, the module has not accepted the upgrade license key, and it has returned to its original conversion mode.

3. If the license key is validated, select XHD3902U (up), XHD3902D (down), XHD3902C (cross), or XHD3902A (aspect ratio) conversion in the x3902 Mode parameter (Other > x3902 Mode on page 120). After a short delay, the read-only x3902 Mode Feedback parameter displays the current conversion mode. (AES versions will display “BC” at the end of the line.)

If the module loses power during the key validation sequence, the data may become corrupted. In that event, when you restart the converter, the module will have no key number, and it will be forced into the None option in the x3902 Mode parameter. To make the module functional, you must re-enter the key number using the LicenseKey parameter.



When the x3902 Mode parameter is set to None either because that option was selected, or because of a lack of a valid license key, the module will display the default Color Bars 75% of the Still Image parameter (page 128). See the related topic “Powering Up a Module” on page 68.



Upgrading Module Software Using CCS 3.x

OverviewSoftware upgrading is a routine procedure that you must perform to install newer versions of software on NEO modules. CCS Pilot, Co-Pilot, or Navigator software applications are required for this procedure. Use care to ensure that you upload the correct files to the intended module.In the unlikely event that the upgrade fails, the module may not respond to controls and will appear to be non-functional. In that event, follow the procedures described in “Correcting a Failed Upgrading Procedure” on page 28.Before beginning the upgrading procedure, ensure that you have written down the IP address of your module. To do this, select the Build mode in CCS software. Right-click on the module, select Properties, and then click Device. The IP address appears in the second Device ID field.

Upgrading ProcedureFollow these steps to upgrade the software:1. Download the most recent NEO upgrade package for your module

(for example, TSG-3901 or XHD-3902) from our website.2. Set your CCS Pilot or Navigator software to the Build mode

(CoPilot only functions in Build mode).3. If the affected module has not been discovered, perform the

Discovery operation, as described in your CCS software application manual or online help, and then save the results.

4. From the Tools menu, select Software Upgrade. The Software Upgrade window opens or is brought to the foreground (see Figure 2-2 on page 26).



Figure 2-2. Software Upgrade Tool’s New Transfer Tab

5. On the New Transfer tab, click Add.The Device Selection dialog opens.

6. Select one or more devices, and then click OK to close the Add Device dialog box.Here is some additional information:

• You can only add one unit from each IP address. Since all items in a frame have the same IP address, you cannot upgrade multiple modules in the same frame at the same time.

• The selected devices appear in the table on the New Transfer tab of the Software Upgrade window. This table lists devices that are to receive the same upgrade package.

• You can highlight the position of each device in the Navigation pane by clicking Find Device.

• Check the module’s current software version by clicking Version Info.

Click here to access these options:• entering Telnet • entering FTP user

name and password• creating automatic

backups.

Package Info includes a list of the components contained in the zip file (zip file must appear in the field first).



• To create an automatic backup of the old version of the software, click the Device Options... button. Then, in the new window, place a check beside Automatic Backup and enter a file name, or click Browse to choose a new file location for the backup. Click OK.

7. In the Software Upgrade window, press Browse... to select the software upgrade package (ZIP file) that you want to upload to the NEO module. A standard Windows File Selection dialog box opens.

8. Choose the upgrade ZIP file on a local or network drive, and then click Open. The selected file’s path name is displayed beside the Browse… button.

9. Click Submit Transfer... A dialog box opens, requesting confirmation that you want to proceed with the request. If you have multiple devices selected, multiple transfer tasks are submitted—one per device.The extraction process on the ZIP file is handled as part of the upgrade process. You do not need to extract the files yourself. Although the file name disappears from the screen, the transfer is now underway. You may close the Software Upgrade window, continue with other tasks, or switch to the Progress tab to view the status of the transfers. Depending on the complexity of the NEO module, the transfer may take several moments.

NOTE

Closing the Software Upgrade window does not affect any of the transfer processes that may be running in the background. If you try to log off or exit the CCS software while a transfer is underway, a notification window will alert you that processes are still active and will ask if you want to terminate these processes.

10. Click on the Log tab and look at the Transfer Status column to ensure that all files have correctly updated. The module is automatically rebooted after the upgrade procedure.

11. To confirm the correct software version was installed, right click the module in the Navigation pane, select Configuration, then Version, and then Software.



Correcting a Failed Upgrading ProcedureSoftware upgrades may fail in the event of network interruptions, power failures, or if too much data is uploaded to the NEO module. The failure can be corrected by re-installing the software while in a fail-safe mode, as described in the following pages. Use care to ensure that you upload the correct files to the intended module.Two general steps are involved in correcting a failed upgrade. These steps are found in the following sections: 1. “Setting the Module to Fail-Safe Loader Mode” (below)2. “Upgrading the Software in the Boot Folder in Fail-Safe Mode” on

page 29

Setting the Module to Fail-Safe Loader ModeFollow these steps to set a NEO module to the fail-safe loader mode:1. Remove the affected module from the NEO frame.2. Press the Nav switch down while simultaneously pressing both the

Escape and Enter buttons.

Figure 3. Buttons on a Typical Card Edge

3. While still pressing the buttons and the navigation switch, reinsert the module into the frame and hold for approximately three seconds until the display on the module reads Offline-H (or Offline-L) Upload Required.If your device has been discovered, you can continue upgrading your device’s software, starting with step 4 on page 25. If the device has not been discovered, continue with the procedure described below.

Enter button

Nav switch

Escape button



Upgrading the Software in the Boot Folder in Fail-Safe ModeThis is the second stage of the failed upgrading procedure. To successfully complete this upgrade, you must follow these steps in the exact sequence described:1. Enter Build mode in CCS Pilot or Navigator.2. In the Navigation pane, drag or copy-and-paste the module’s device

icon from the Catalog folder into your NEO frame.3. Right-click the device icon, and then select Properties.4. On the Device tab of the Navigation Properties box, enter the IP

address of the frame that holds the module (see below).

5. In the third field, enter 1.0.[slotnumber]

(For example, 1.0.5 would refer to the module in slot 5 of the frame.)

NOTE

Ensure you do not make changes in the last field (located above and to the right of the Set Default button.) If you do make changes in this field, you will need to add devices to the Discovery or Network folder again.

6. Close the window, and continue upgrading your device’s software, starting with step 4 on page 25.


Chapter 3

Audio and Video Configuration

OverviewThis chapter describes the audio and video configuration options that can be changed in the course of normal operation.The following topics are found in this chapter:• “Audio Configuration” on page 32• “Aspect Ratio Conversion” on page 40• “Closed Captioning and DVB Teletext Captioning” on page 64• “Protected Feed Mode” on page 66• “Automatic Mode Switching” on page 69• “GPI” on page 72


Chapter 3: Audio and Video Configuration

Audio ConfigurationAll XHD-3902 modules process embedded audio. The input embedded audio is demultiplexed (de-embedded) and synchronized to the video, delayed to match the video processing delay, processed, and then remultiplexed (re-embedded) into HD- and SD-SDI video output. Up to two groups of audio can be embedded into the video stream.

NOTE

Throughout this manual, all mentions of AES audio functionality refer to the “-BC” versions of the XHD-3902 modules.

The “-BC” versions of the XHD-3902 can process both embedded audio and discrete AES audio. Unlike embedded audio, discrete AES audio flows independently from the video stream. This audio is synchronized to the video, delayed to match the video processing delay, processed, and then multiplexed into HD- and SD-SDI output. The audio can also be output as a discrete AES signal.

Audio ControlsXHD-3902 modules can route audio from one of several sources to the outgoing SDI (up to 4 channel pairs can be embedded) and/or AES outputs (1 channel pair each).

NOTE

All audio operations are based on channel pairs, not individual audio signals.

The base XHD-3902 modules support only embedded audio. These modules are capable of demultiplexing up to two groups of embedded audio from each of the two incoming video SDI streams, and embedding up to two groups into the output SDI stream. The discrete “-BC” versions additionally provide two AES inputs (each balanced or coax) and two AES outputs (each balanced or coax). Both versions of the XHD-3902 modules can select up to four channel pairs of audio for synchronization and processing.On the input side, the following read-only parameters indicate which groups and channel pairs have audio present in the primary or secondary video inputs:



• Primary Audio Groups Present (page 116)• Secondary Audio Groups Present (page 117)• Primary Audio Channel Pairs Feedback (page 116)• Secondary Audio Channel Pairs Feedback (page 117)For AES input, use AES1 In Source Select and AES2 In Source Select (page 119) to indicate whether each of the AES inputs is balanced or unbalanced (coax).The AES1 Present or AES2 Present parameters (page 117) will then indicate whether audio is detected on the corresponding AES input.



Audio RoutingFor audio routing, four channel pairs can be mapped to the outgoing video and on the “-BC” versions, any two of these four-channel pairs can also be output on two AES outputs. There are two ways of routing the audio to the outputs: predefined or custom.

PredefinedTo provide predefined routing configurations for ease of use, set the Embedder 1 Source or Embedder 2 Source parameters (page 121) to the following options:• Demultiplexer 1, Groups 1 and 2• Demultiplexer 1, Groups 3 and 4• Demultiplexer 2, Groups 1 and 2• Demultiplexer 2, Groups 3 and 4• AES• ToneFor example, Demultiplexer 1, Groups 1 and 2 indicates that these four primary video channel pairs will be mapped to the four channel pairs on the outgoing video:• Group 1 channel pair 1• Group 1 channel pair 2• Group 2 channel pair 1• Group 2 channel pair 2 Likewise, Demultiplexer 2, Groups 1 and 2 and Demultiplexer 2, Groups 3 and 4 are demuxers for the secondary video.

CustomTo manually configure the audio routing, set Embedder 1 Source or Embedder 2 Source to Custom (page 121).To select which audio will be routed whenever primary video is active, use the Embedder 1 Pair 1 Source, Embedder 1 Pair 2 Source, Embedder 1 Pair 3 Source, and Embedder 1 Pair 4 Source parameters (page 122).



To select which audio should be routed whenever secondary video is active, use the Embedder 2 Pair 1 Source, Embedder 2 Pair 2 Source, Embedder 2 Pair 3 Source, and Embedder 2 Pair 4 Source parameters (page 123).In addition to selecting audio sources from the primary and/or secondary video, four tone generators are available, as well as Mute.The audio routing assigns four embedded channel pair sources to the primary video (Embedder 1) and four to the secondary video (Embedder 2). Depending on which video input is active, the corresponding routing configuration (Embedder 1 vs. Embedder 2) dictates which input audio channel pairs get selected for synchronization and processing by the audio subsystem. Further parameters are used to determine how the processed audio gets routed for embedding and AES output, as follows:• Channel Pairs 1 and 2 Output Group and Channel Pairs 3 and 4

Output Group (page 123) control into which the SDI audio groups processed audio pairs P1/P2 and P3/P4, respectively, are embedded.

• AES 1 Output Source and AES 2 Output Source (page 127) control what is routed to AES outputs 1 and 2. For each AES output you can select processed audio pair P1, P2, P3, or P4, or one of the four tone generators, or Mute.

Audio Proc AmpGain, bypass, and delay controls are available for each of the processed audio channel pairs. For gain and delay, Embedder 1 Master Gain Enable and Embedder 2 Master Gain Enable (page 132), and Embedder 1 Master Delay and Embedder 2 Master Delay (page 132) provide a master control that applies to all channel pairs.• If the embedder master delay and embedder master gain are set to

On, you can set the master gain and delay values using the Embedder 1 Master Gain Set and Embedder 2 Master Gain Set (page 132), and Embedder 1 Master Delay Set and Embedder 2 Master Delay Set (page 132) parameters.

• If embedder master delay and embedder master gain are set to Off, you can individually adjust the gain and delay of each of the channel pairs using Embedder 1 Pair 1 Gain to Embedder 2 Pair 4 Gain (page 132) and Embedder 1 Pair 1 Delay to Embedder 2 Pair 4 Delay (page 132).



The channel pair could contain non-PCM audio data (in other words, it is indicated by bit 1 of channel status bits being set for Non-Audio instead of Audio as shown on page 188). In this case, the sample rate converter must be bypassed to ensure audio integrity. The master bypass controls (Embedder 1 Master Bypass and Embedder 2 Master Bypass on page 131) provide three options:• If the master bypass is On, all four channel pairs will bypass the

sample rate converter.• If the master bypass is Off, you must individually indicate which

channel pairs to bypass using Embedder 1 Pair 1 Bypass to Embedder 2 Pair 4 Bypass (page 131).

• If the master bypass is set to Auto, the channel pairs will be monitored, and if non-PCM audio data is detected, the sample rate converter for that channel pair will be bypassed. Embedder 1 Bypass Feedback and Embedder 2 Bypass Feedback (page 131) indicate which channel pairs are bypassed.

In addition to the mute controls that control audio pairs individually, a Master Mute control page 131) mutes all of the audio channel pairs. Also, if the audio source for a given processed audio pair does not have any incoming audio, the processed audio pair will be automatically muted. Embedder 1 Mute Feedback and Embedder 2 Mute Feedback (page 132) indicate which channel pair sources are muted.



Audio FeedbackThe read-only parameters Primary Audio Groups Present (page 116) and Secondary Audio Groups Present (page 117) indicate which groups are present in the primary or secondary video input. There are four positions in the feedback display representing (from left to right) Groups 1 through 4 (see Figure 3-1). The “=” indicates no audio is detected for a particular group. If audio is detected, a “1”, “2”, “3”, or “4” is displayed to indicate the presence of audio for the corresponding group. For example, “= 2 = =” indicates that the module detects audio in Group 2.

Figure 3-1. PriAudPres and SecAudPres Feedback Display

The read-only parameters Primary Audio Channel Pairs Feedback (page 116) and Secondary Audio Channel Pairs Feedback (page 117) indicate which channel pairs are present in the primary or secondary video input. In addition, the parameters indicate whether the channel pair detected is PCM audio or non-PCM audio. There are eight positions in the feedback display representing (from left to right) Channel Pair 1 in Group 1 through Channel Pair 2 in Group 4 (see Figure 3-2 on page 38). The “=” indicates no audio is detected for a particular channel pair. The letter “a” indicates the presence of PCM audio, and the “d” indicates non-PCM audio was detected.

DARS Auto SelectThe DARS Source Set parameter (page 119) aligns the AES output signal with one of the following source options:• Auto

When set to this option, the module automatically selects the method for aligning with the AES output signal. (The selected option is displayed on the DARS Source Feedback parameter (page 119). DARS Present and DARS Locked (page 119) respectively indicate whether DARS is present and whether the output AES signal is locked to DARS.

• External reference signal (Reference Video) The X/Z preamble of the output AES signal aligns with the reference signal as per AES11-1997 and RP 168-2002.

• External DARS (DARS In) The Z preamble of the output AES signal aligns with the Z preamble of DARS.

• Nothing (None)



Aspect Ratio Conversion For the module output, you can select either a standard ARC setting, or one of 10 of your own customized preset ARC settings.

Setting a Standard Aspect RatioTo select a standard aspect ratio for the output image, scroll to ARC Preset (page 129) and then select one of the available options. The available standard aspect ratios depend upon the operating mode of the XHD-3902. In other words, an ARC setting that is visible in upconversion may not be visible in downconversion.In some modes, Pixel True is offered as an option. There is no actual scaling performed in Pixel True. Instead, each input pixel is mapped directly to one output pixel; you can use this preset to transport an SD picture embedded inside an HD stream.For the preset selection devoted to SD-to-SD aspect ration conversion, the following options convert a 4:3 SD-SDI image into a 16:9 image:• 4:3=>4:3 Pillar• 4:3=>14:9 Pillar• 4:3=>16:9 Cut• 4:3=>16:9 Anamorphic• 4:3=>21:9 LetterboxThe following options convert a 16:9 SD-SDI image into a 4:3 image:• 16:9=>16:9 Letterbox• 16:9=>14:9 Letterbox• 16:9=>4:3 Cut• 16:9=>4:3 Anamorphic• 16:9=>21:9 LetterboxThese additional options offer various forms of active format description:• AFD• AFD (Alternate) • VI• WSS• WSS (Alternate)



Additional information on active format description begins on page 51.Table 3-1 below lists the standard conversion options available in the different modes of operation. Diagrams of these modes are shown as follows:• “Standard ARC Upconversion Settings” on page 43• “Standard ARC Crossconversion Settings” on page 44• “Standard ARC Downconversion Settings” on page 45• “Additional 4:3 Input SD-SDI ARC Options” on page 46• “Additional 16:9 Input SD-SDI ARC Options” on page 47

Setting a Custom Aspect RatioYou can scale and pan the output image to any size and location by using the various parameters of the custom aspect ratio feature. To use this feature, scroll to the ARC Preset parameter (page 129), and then select Custom. This procedure is optional, but recommended, as it has the effect of making the custom ARC settings “live.” With the ARC Preset set to Custom, any changes to these parameters will immediately appear on the program output. Use ARC Horizontal Scale, ARC Vertical Scale, (page 129) ARC Horizontal Offset, and ARC Vertical Offset (page 129) to set the size and position accordingly. These controls are described below:• ARC Horizontal Scale sets the horizontal size of the output image

anywhere between 35% and 200% of the output screen size. Granular control of 0.01% changes the output scale as little as one pixel. Setting this parameter to 100% will result in the picture width being equal to the output screen width.

• ARC Vertical Scale sets the vertical size of the output image anywhere between 35% and 200% of the output screen size. Granular control of 0.01% changes the output scale as little as one pixel. Setting this parameter to 100% will result in the picture height being equal to the output screen height

• ARC Horizontal Offset places the horizontal center of the output image anywhere between -80% and 80% of the output screen size. Since 0% is the center, setting ARC Horizontal Offset to anything under -50% or above 50% places the center of image outside the screen area. Granular control of 0.01% pans the output image as little as one pixel.

• ARC Vertical Offset places the vertical center of the output image anywhere between -80% to 80% of the output screen size. Since 0% is the center, setting ARC Vertical Offset to anything under -50% or above 50% places the center of image outside the screen area. Granular control of 0.01% pans the output image as little as one pixel.



Saving, Selecting and Recalling Custom Aspect RatiosYou can save, select, and recall up to ten custom aspect ratios in the XHD-3902 modules.

Saving a Custom Aspect RatioTo save a custom aspect ratio, follow these steps:1. Ensure the ARC Horizontal Scale, ARC Vertical Scale, ARC

Horizontal Offset, and ARC Vertical Offset parameters have been set to your desired values (starting on page 129).

2. In the ARC Preset Save parameter, (page 130) select one of the aspect ratio preset slots for storage.

Selecting a Saved Custom Aspect RatioTo select one of the custom saved aspect ratios for the output image, follow these steps:1. Select the ARC Preset parameter (page 129). 2. Select one of the ten saved aspect ratios in Preset 1 to Preset 10.

Recalling a Saved Custom Aspect RatioBy selecting the ARC Preset Recall parameter (page 130), you can also recall any built-in standard or custom saved aspect ratio settings into the custom aspect ratio controls. Unless the ARC Preset parameter is set to Custom (page 129), this operation will not affect the output image.The ARC Preset Recall operation will overwrite the custom aspect ratio parameters ARC Horizontal Scale, ARC Vertical Scale, ARC Horizontal Offset, and ARC Vertical Offset (starting on page 129). If you perform an aspect ratio recall when ARC Preset is set to Custom, the output image aspect ratio will change to reflect the newly recalled ARC values.

Overscan ModeThe overscan mode is similar to a zoom mode. When enabled, it discards a specified number of lines and columns of pixels around the borders of the input image active picture region before processing.



For example, the active picture region for 525 standard starts on line 21 and ends at line 262. Therefore, an overscan setting of one line implies that upconversion starts at line 22 and ends at line 261. In addition to the two discarded lines, the first and last pixel of each remaining line in the active picture region are discarded.The overscan mode prevents data embedded in the active picture region (usually line 21), such as closed captioning, from being converted.To enable the overscan mode, scroll to the ARC Overscan parameter (page 129) and then select the number of rows and columns for cropping. Using the overscan control you can also discard picture ramp-up and ramp-down regions commonly present in material digitized from analog video sources. If you are using an XHD-3902 with a downstream keyer, and the keyed image appears with a dark border around it, the border is caused by this shaping of the incoming video frame. Use the ARC Overscan parameter to minimize this border effect.



Active Format DescriptionActive Format Description (AFD) transmits data in the VANC portion of the SDI signal, enabling both 4:3 and 16:9 television monitors to optimally present video with preset ARC and safe area information. Without AFD, converted video may appear distorted or “cut off” when it appears on different monitors. The XHD-3902 can encode or decode AFD; it can also encode or decode earlier Video Index (VI) and Wide Screen Signalling (WSS) formats.Figure 3-9 shows two comparisons of a signal that is encoded with AFD and without AFD.

The AFD feature of the XHD-3902 includes nine possible SD-SDI configurations and eight possible configurations in HD-SDI. Figure 3-12 on page 56 describes the SD-SDI AFD configurations; Figure 3-13 on page 57 describes the HD-SDI AFD configurations.

AFD, VI, and WSS DetectionAFD, VI, and WSS data that is embedded in the incoming video can be detected by the XHD-3902, and read from the following input parameters that are found in the Input > Decoding path: • Primary Active Format Description Present (page 108)• Secondary Active Format Description Present (page 111)• Primary Input VI Scan Present (page 109)• Secondary Input VI Scan Present (page 112)• Primary Input VI AFD Present (page 109)• Secondary Input VI AFD Present (page 112)• Primary Input WSS Present (page 110)• Secondary Input WSS Present (page 113)

AFD, VI, and WSS ProcessingIncoming AFD, VI, and WSS data can be used for automatic aspect ratio control when the ARCPreset parameter is set to one of these values in the Processing > Aspect Convert path: • AFD• AFD (ALTR)• VI• WSS• WSS (ALTR) Figures 3-14 to 3-17 on page 58 to page 61 show how the automatic ARC control will act when given an AFD, VI, or WSS code input.

AFD, VI, and WSS OutputAFD, VI, and WSS data can be inserted into an output video stream either manually or automatically. This function is controlled by the AFD Embedding Enable, VI Embedding Enable, and WSS Embedding Enable parameters located in the Output > Embedding path (starting on page 124).The Auto option of the AFD Embedder Enable, VI Embedder Enable, and WSS Embedder Enable parameters will embed the data that is automatically selected by the module, based on one of the following:• The current ARC settings (via Processing > Aspect Convert,

starting on page 129)• The current AFD/VI/WSS code input that is detected in the

incoming video signal• A selected option in the Aspect Ratio Conversion Preset

parameter (via Processing > Aspect Convert on page 129)If you select User instead of Auto in the AFD Embedding Enable, VI Embedding Enable, and WSS Embedding Enable parameters, you can change the output code by selecting a different option in AFD Embedder Select, VI Embedder Select, or WSS Embedder Select. These parameters are also located in the Output > Embedding path (starting on page 125).



Additionally, if you are using VI according to the SMPTE Proposed RP-186+ standard as of January 11, 2007, you must ensure you have enabled the standard by following this path: Output > Embedding > VI Embedder AFD Enable on page 125 (default setting is Yes).In the event that the current ARC is controlled by AFD, VI, or WSS, and this data disappears from the input signal, the XHD-3902 provides you with two options:• Keep the current aspect ratio as set by the last AFD, VI, or WSS

data.• Reset to the aspect ratio settings that were in use before the AFD,

VI, or WSS data took control.The Aspect Ratio Conversion Reset Auto parameter (page 131) controls this feature. Select Yes to have the module reset to older values in the event of a loss of data; select No (the default) to retain the current ARC settings in the event of a loss of data.At this time, Bar Data and Pan-Scan for VI and AFD are not supported.

I- Wings Integrated HDTV Sidebar Content InsertionI-Wings integrated HDTV content insertion is a software key option that makes it possible to key HD-SDI content into the sidebar portion of the output image raster using the module’s internal HDTV keyer. This option is useful for applications where upconversion of SD-SDI 4:3 content is being performed, and insertion of additional content is required in the 16:9 upconverted image raster's sidebars. (See Figure 3-18 on page 63).The “IW” license key feature operates in the upconversion mode only, on any of the following modules:• XHD-3902-U• XHD-3902-UCD• XHD-3902-KF• XHD-3902-M

To set up the internal wings feature, follow these steps:1. Set the Primary Video Standard Set parameter (Input > Other >

Primary Video Standard Set on page 118) to the SD-SDI standard of your primary input video, or leave the parameter in the default Auto position).This video becomes the center portion of the program output.

2. Set your aspect ratio settings as required, using CCS software, or by following this card-edge path: Output > Processing > Aspect Conversion starting on page 129).

3. Set the output video standard (Output > Other > Output Video Standard Set on page page 126).

4. Select the source for the “wings” either as background color (Output > Other > Background Color on page 126), or from another video input with the same standard as the output video standard (Output > Other > Background Color > Secondary Input).

If the secondary input video and the output video do not share the same standard, an Incompatible Video Standard major alarm will be activated. If this occurs, the module automatically generates a black background, replacing the secondary input until a valid signal is received.



If the secondary input signal does not exist, the module creates a black, green, or still image background, according to the setting you have made in the Secondary Loss of Video Mode parameter (Output > Routing > Secondary Loss of Video Mode on page 127).For more information on video timing with a secondary SDI input signal, see “Output Switch Mode” on page 82.

Closed Captioning and DVB Teletext CaptioningAlthough North America has dedicated standards for closed captioning of video (EIA-608 and 708), many countries in Europe and elsewhere have not yet adopted formal standards. For these countries, closed captioning is part of the DVB Teletext System as described in ITU-R BT-653-3. These specifications define all Teletext Systems (Systems A, B, C, D) used in the world and are also known as the World System Teletext (WST). A Teletext system is made of several pages of various data information and CC data is described in one these pages. System B is used in Australia, the UK, and Germany, among other countries.Australian closed captions are inserted on line 21/334 in analog PAL broadcast signals, as per the ITU-R BT-653-3. When analog PAL is produced or converted to SDTV (625 digital), a digitized version of the closed captioning appears on line 21/334 (in the same way line 21 on NTSC signals is digitized and appears on the line 21 of SD-SDI signals). The ITU-R BT-653-3 document proposed by Free TV Australia indicates how to carry this CC data into the VANC area of SD-and HD-SDI signals by use of the SMPTE 334M VANC embedding protocol. For digital broadcasting, Australia intends to use the ETSI EN 300 472 standard that specifies the conveyance of ITU-R System B Teletext in DVB bit streams.

Setting 525-SDI and 625-SDI Captioning525-SDI

To make changes to the default settings in 525-SDI, use the Closed Captioning Embedder and Closed Captioning Embedder Position parameters (page 121). To verify the presence of the embedded CC, use the Primary Closed Captioning Present (page 116) and the Secondary Closed Captioning Present parameters (page 117).

625-SDITo make changes to the default settings in 625-SDI, use the Decoding parameters (page 107) and the following parameters shown in the Embedding section that begins on page 124:• Teletext Embedding• Teletext Embedding Mode• Teletext Fields 1 and 2 Position



• Cue Embedding• Cue Embedding Mode• Cue Fields 1 and 2 Line PositionXHD-3902 modules are designed to detect errors in the Teletext and Cue data inputs as they occur. By default, minor alarms will be activated when the following errors are detected:• Teletext parity error• Teletext frame error• Cue data parity errorThese errors will also appear as the read-only parameters Teletext Input Parity Error, Teletext Input Frame Error, and Cue Data Input Parity Error (page 118). In addition, the card-edge User 3 LED will turn red when a Teletext parity error is detected, and the User 4 LED will turn red when a Cue data parity error is detected.The LEDs will remain lit during the duration of the parity errors. When the input signal becomes error-free, the LEDs and the alarms turn off after approximately two seconds.The DVB Teletext feature is available when you purchase the XHD3902-OPT-DVB option; it operates with any -U, -C, -D, -A, -UCD, -M, or -KF combination. See page 22 for information about software license key options.



Protected Feed ModeXHD-3902 modules provide two SDI inputs, making it possible for the secondary input to be clean-switched automatically if the primary input fails while the module is in protected mode.In the protected mode, the Primary SDI input is meant to carry the main program feed, while the Secondary SDI input carries a backup signal. The XHD-3902 allows the backup signal to be in either the input (preconverted) video format, or in output (post-processed) video format. If a failure occurs in the primary input, the secondary input is clean-switched in to provide continuous program delivery.See “Video Line Synchronizer” on page 80 for special secondary input timing requirements

Protected Feed and Recovery Set-upTo enable the protected mode on the XHD-3902 modules, set the Protect Mode parameter (page 127) to On. XHD-3902 modules can display one of three possible video sources at any one time through the Input Select parameter (page 127): Primary Input, Secondary Input, or Still Image. In protected feed mode, the XHD-3902 modules automatically switch input sources if an input failure occurs or if the input port recovers from a failure. Each port has two states: failed and available. An input port reaches the failed state when loss of video has persisted for the number of frames specified by the Set Failover Delay parameter (page 127). If a loss of video event has occurred, but the delay duration has not yet been met, the behavior specified using the Primary Loss of Video Mode (page 126) or Secondary Loss of Video Mode will be followed (page 127). The available state is achieved when a valid signal is detected for the number of frames specified by the Recovery Delay parameter (page 127).



Recover Mode SettingsWhen you set the Recovery Mode parameter to Off (page 127), the XHD-3902 modules will not switch back to the original port when the input port recovers from a failure. In case of primary input failure the XHD-3902 module will switch over to secondary input if it is available, or directly to the still image if it is not. If the secondary input fails while being active, the XHD-3902 module will switch to still image. When the Recovery Mode parameter is Off, you must recover manually by switching the ports using the Input Select parameter (page 127).If the Recovery Mode parameter is set to First Available, upon the failure of primary or secondary input, the XHD-3902 modules will automatically switch to the input that is still available. The module’s input will remain there until either this input fails, or you manually change the input using the Input Select parameter. When both primary and secondary inputs fail, the XHD-3902 modules will switch to the still image. In this state, the XHD-3902 modules will automatically recover to the first input to become available, but will not switch further when next input also becomes available.If you set the Recovery Mode parameter to Return to Primary, the XHD-3902 modules will, upon failure of primary input, switch over to the secondary input. If the secondary input also fails, the module will further switch over to the still image. In this setting, the XHD-3902 modules will always automatically recover to the first input available, but they will also further recover to the primary input whenever it becomes available. This will occur regardless of whether the secondary input is available, and whether the modules switches from secondary input or still image.Finally, if you set the Recovery Mode parameter to Return to Secondary, the modules will, upon failure of the secondary input, switch over to primary input, and upon failure of primary input further switch over to the still image. In this setting, XHD-3902 modules always automatically recover to the first input available, but they will also further recover to secondary input whenever it becomes available. This occurs regardless of whether the primary input is available, and whether the XHD-3902 module switches from primary input or still image.



Powering Up a ModuleWhen you first power up an XHD-3902, the default settings of the Recovery Mode, Protect Mode, and Input Select parameters on page 127 lead to an output of color bars. This is a normal function of the module.To view a converted signal instead of default color bars, follow these steps:1. Set the type of conversion you need by selecting one of the “-U,”

“-C,” “-D,” or “-A” options in the x3902 Mode parameter (page 120).

2. Set the output signal standard in Output Video Standard Set (page 126).

3. Connect the input video signal to the primary input (SDI 1 In Primary connection on the back module).

4. Set the Recovery Mode parameter to Return Primary (page 127).5. In the Input Select parameter, select Primary Input (page 127).



Automatic Mode SwitchingThe XHD-3902 can be configured to operate as an upconverter (SD-SDI in, HD-SDI out), a downconverter (HD-SDI in, SD-SDI out), a crossconverter (HD-SDI in, HD-SDI out), or an SD-SDI ARC (SD-SDI in, SD-SDI out). For applications where a mix of HD and SD signals can be fed to the XHD-3902 module at any time, automatic mode switching makes it possible for the XHD-3902 to automatically reconfigure itself (that is, change the modes of operation) based on the video standard fed into primary SDI input, in a way that the program output is maintained in the selected output video standard. In any one of these modes of operation, the primary SDI input can accept either SD input or HD input.

NOTE

Aside from film rate compensation, the XHD-3902 does not perform frame rate conversion. Thus, only input standards that have frame rates compatible with the selected output frame rate will trigger automatic mode switches.

Enabling Automatic Mode SwitchingAutomatic mode switching operation is disabled by default. You can enable this feature using the Automatic Mode Switch parameter (page 120). When enabled, the XHD-3902 module will monitor the video standard found on the primary SDI input. When a new video standard is found to be present on the primary SDI input for the duration programmed into the Mode Switch Delay parameter (page 120), a mode switch will be triggered according to the options shown in Table 3-2 on page 70.

NOTE

The XHD-3902 must hold a valid license key for a given mode of operation in order for the automatic mode switch to trigger.



Modal Parameter ExceptionsIn the XHD-3902, many configuration parameters are allowed to maintain their own values within different modes of operation. Thus the XHD-3902 remembers the last value configured for parameters such as Input Select (page 127) and Output Video Standard Set (page 126) in each individual mode of operation (XHD3902U, XHD3902C, XHD3902D, or XHD3902A), and will recall the saved values whenever the x3902 Mode (page 120) changes.For Input Select and Output Standard Set, this behavior differs when automatic mode switching is used. Automatic mode switching maintains program output in the same video format regardless of what video format appears on its primary SDI input (subject to supported input formats and frame rates compatible with the selected output frame rate). The following two exceptions occur whenever a mode switch is triggered via the automatic mode switch mechanism:• The Output Standard Set value is copied from the mode the

XHD-3902 switches from to the mode it switches to• The Input Select value in the mode that the XHD-3902 switches to

is set to Primary Input

Mode Switch DelaySince a mode switch is a major configuration change, and takes more time than other parameter changes, it is not desirable for transient video standard changes on the primary SDI input to trigger mode switches. The Mode Switch Delay parameter (page 120) is used to prevent such behavior. Whenever a new video standard is fed into the primary SDI input, the XHD-3902 will wait for the input to be present for the number of seconds configured in Mode Switch Delay parameter before it triggers a mode switch operation.

Protected Mode and Automatic Mode SwitchProtected mode failover/recovery and the “-UCD” automatic mode switch both allow modules to automatically respond to changes on SDI inputs. These mechanisms operate independently of each other, even when you enable both of them at the same time. To achieve the desired behavior, you must configure the following two mechanisms and their individual delay parameters:• Mode Switch Delay for automatic mode switch (page 120)• Set Failover Delay (page 127) and Recovery Delay (page 127) for

protected mode failover/recovery.



GPIThe XHD-3902 modules provide seven General Purpose Interfaces (GPIs) for automation. These are open collector style inputs with approximately 10 KΩ pull-ups to +5V. This means that you can use “contact closure-to-ground” switches to control these GPI inputs. See Figure 3-19 for a typical configuration.

Figure 3-19. Typical GPI Configuration

For each of these seven GPIs, there is a corresponding trigger parameter (GPI Trigger 1 through GPI Trigger 7 on page 113) and a corresponding event (GPI Event Set 1 through GPI Event Set 7) parameter on page 114. Using GPI 1 as an example, GPI Trigger 1 can be configured with one of the following values:• Off to disable GPI 1• Rising Edge to trigger the GPI event on low-to-high signal

transition (in other words, when the switch in Figure 3-19 is disengaged)

• Falling Edge to trigger the GPI event on high-to-low signal transition (in other words, when the switch in Figure 3-19 is engaged)

The GPI events that occur in this example are determined by the GPI Event 1 parameter, and can be set to perform one of the following:• Change the aspect ratio parameter (ARC Preset on page 129) to

one of the predefined standard aspect ratios• Change the aspect ratio parameter (ARC Preset) to one of the

Selecting the Conversion ModeEach module of the XHD-3902 series includes the same core feature set, including protection switching capability, closed captioning transcoding, and transparent handling of up to two groups of embedded audio. Table 4-1 lists the input and output standards of the different XHD-3902 variations.

When your XHD-3902 module is purchased with a single function capability, the module’s current mode (for example, XHD-3902-U) displays in the read-only x3902 Mode Feedback parameter (page 120). To enable full up, down, or crossconversion capability in one module, you must purchase a multipurpose license key. If you purchased a multipurpose (“UCD”) conversion module (rather than upgrading a single purpose module later), all three modes are available, one at a time. The mode that is operational in a multipurpose conversion module is always the function that you have selected in the x3902 Mode parameter (page 120).Similarly, if you have installed an upgrading license key (see page 22 for details), you will need to select your conversion mode in the x3902 Mode parameter. (Although the x3902 Mode lists all of the possible conversion modes, only the licensed modes will function.)

Cross-Functional Parameter ChangesEach different conversion mode enables, disables, or changes the options that are available in the parameter lists. In some cases, the range of certain numeric values will be smaller, for example, between the upconversion and crossconversion modes. In other cases, some options will not be functional, or previously unavailable options will become visible. These changes reflect the different specifications of the various SD and HD-SDI standards, and are not indications of flaws in the control interface.



Operation Notes

CAUTION

Failure to observe these Operation Notes will result in accidental changes to the module’s parameter settings.

When using the XHD-3902 modules, observe the following operation notes:• If you change parameters within 16 seconds after the XHD-3902

banner first appears on the VFD, your changes will not be saved. Parameter changes that you make after this 16-second delay will be saved if the module loses power. You must restart the module to restore these saved settings.

• Although the effect of a parameter change may appear to be immediate, the module requires 20 seconds to save the latest change. If another change is made during these 20 seconds, the first parameter change and the second parameter change will not be saved until 20 seconds after the second parameter change. There is no limit to the number of changes that can be made within 20 seconds of each other. However, none of these changes will be saved until 20 seconds after the last parameter change.

• When you set the Factory Recall parameter to Yes (page 120), the module takes several seconds to reset all of the parameters. Factory Recall immediately reverts to No after the reset is complete. Setup parameters are not affected by this factory recall mode. The “Operator and All List Parameters” on page 155 and “Tree View Parameter List” on page 105 indicate the parameter default settings that are restored when you set Factory Recall to Yes. When you activate Factory Recall, the x3902 Mode parameter (page 120) will reset to the first available (that is, licensed) mode. If no valid license key is entered, x3902 Mode is forced to None.

• XHD-3902 modules have four SDI outputs. Two of the inputs always carry program output, and two can be configured to carry either the same output signal, or an output key signal for downstream keying. Depending on the configuration and availability of the input signals, the output video timing can be



derived from input video, timing reference input, or it can be free-running within the tolerance allowed by the applicable standards.

• Changes in some parameters will cause additional changes in other parameters, or lock them out entirely. See “Cross-Functional Parameter Changes” on page 77 for more information.

• Ensure that you connect to a video input and set the conversion mode before turning on the module’s power (see page 68).

Video Synchronization and DelayThe XHD-3902 modules provide conversion between HD and/or SD-SDI standards. During conversion, there is a certain amount of delay added to the primary SDI input signal in the main video processing path. The amount of delay to the primary signal is dependent upon the type of processing applied to it.The primary SD-SDI input signal is frame-synchronized to the genlock reference. A user delay control is available to compensate for other external processes. The user delay interface provides a delay range between 0 to 6 frames in one-frame increments.The secondary SDI input is line-synchronized to the genlock reference. No user delay is available on this input. The secondary input signal must be delayed upstream through external equipment, and then synchronized to match the processing through the module. If this is not possible, you can achieve freeze-frame switching by following the instructions in “Sync Switching” on page 84.Additionally, an external DARS reference input (AES interface) provides audio timing synchronization when the module embeds the audio streams into the SDI program output.

Video Frame SynchronizerThe video frame synchronizer (frame sync) on the primary SDI input provides synchronization using the Genlock Source parameter (page 115). The default option in this parameter is the Reference Input sync mode. SDI program input timing is provided by the Delay option.



When the Reference Input option is selected, the frame synchronizer automatically detects and locks to the genlock reference signal for video timing alignment. The frame synchronizer either drops or repeats video frames to achieve synchronization.

Video Line SynchronizerThe video line synchronizer (line sync) on the secondary SDI input provides synchronization using the main reference timing signal. The two main purposes of the line sync are the following:• To compensate for any timing misalignment in the input signal with

respect to the reference timing, ensuring precise positioning of the video stream with pixel accuracy

• To provide a stable picture, from one of the user-selectable black, green, or test image options located in the Secondary Loss of Video Mode parameter (page 127)

Line Synchronizer ConsiderationsThe secondary SDI input signal fed into the line synchronizer requires special considerations based on the following:• The line sync buffer can store up to a maximum of three lines of

SDI video, and the XHD-3902 converter cannot compensate for a larger drift in the video signal with respect to the reference. Therefore, in this instance, the secondary SDI input must be genlocked upstream using external equipment.

• The secondary SDI input incurs a different amount of delay through the module’s processing path than the primary SDI input signal. If the application requires that video sources SDI-1 and SDI-2 be switched back and forth, external equipment must be used upstream to delay the secondary input signal to match the delay on the primary path.

• XHD-3902 modules are capable of switching between SDI-1 and SDI-2, either at the input or output side of the converter. Depending on where the switch occurs, the following conditions apply:• The secondary SDI input signal must match either the primary

SDI input or the SDI output.• A different amount of delay must be set to the secondary SDI

input to compensate for the primary SDI processing delay.



Video TimingInput Switch Mode

The video timing of the line sync output regenerates and slaves to the reference signal. Any timing misalignment between the input signal and the reference signal that is larger than the three-line capacity of the line sync buffer will cause a distortion in the displayed picture. The conversion module reports this event as a Secondary Sync (Out-of) Range alarm. You can enable this alarm in the Setup menu (page 135).The read-only Secondary Sync Range Line parameter (page 119) displays the number of lines required to advance or delay the secondary SDI input signal to keep it within the three-line buffer for normal operation. For optimal alignment of the secondary input signal (when required), this parameter should read 2. This will place the marker in the middle of the three-line buffer, therefore allowing for a timing variation of the secondary input signal of +/- one line—with respect to the main reference—without impacting the output.Figure 4-1 represents video timing synchronization between SDI-1 and SDI-2 before conversion.

In the input switch mode, the two SDI signals must have the same delay as they simultaneously pass through the upconverter. In order to maintain synchronization, the secondary SDI input signal fed into the line sync must be delayed upstream by the amount of the user-selectable frame delay set on the primary SDI input signal (D1 in Figure 4-1 on page 81 represents the delay through the frame sync path). Use the read-only Secondary Sync Range Line (page 119) as a guide to delay or advance the secondary input signal the required number of lines to compensate for the line sync, and then add the number of frames from the Input Frame Delay control (page 113).The output timing controls, Horizontal Phase and Vertical Phase (page 121) are applied to the output of the upconverter so that the HD-SDI signal is in phase with the reference signal. Additionally, the SD-frame delay adds a set number of full frames to the primary input signal through the Input Frame Delay control. Internally, the converter slightly advances the H/V phasing applied to the frame sync and to the line sync in order to compensate for any internal delays, and to precisely align the two video signals feeding the switcher. The H/V phasing ensures the switch between the video signals is free of any video timing errors.

Output Switch ModeIn output switch mode, the secondary SDI input signal must have the same format and timing as the converted primary output signal. To achieve a clean switch in the output mode between SDI-1 and SDI-2 after SDI-1 conversion, the secondary input signal fed into the line sync must be delayed to match the primary input signal through the converter (see Figure 4-2 on page 83). In this case, the frame sync delay (D1) plus the converter delay (D2) equals the system delay (D3) of the primary signal. The system delay represents the delay through the frame sync path plus the delay through the converter. When making this adjustment, note that the overall delay changes with the type of conversion performed. For example, there are different amounts of delay between 525-720p and 525-1080i. Therefore, the system delay differs from conversion to conversion.The total amount of frame delay is indicated in System Delay (page 121). In order to achieve synchronization and clean switching between the two video signals, use the Secondary Sync Range Line control (page 119) to adjust the secondary SDI input signal the required number of lines.



Figure 4-2 represents video timing synchronization between SDI-1 and SDI-2 after SDI-1 conversion.

Figure 4-2. XHD-3902 Video Timing (Output Switch Mode)

Additional ConsiderationsThe line sync is slaved to the reference signal, causing varied delays between the line sync input and output signals when the reference timing is changed. Examples of this are as follows:• Changing from Reference Input to the Delay option in the

Genlock Source parameter (page 115)• Changing the timing of the signal applied to the Reference Input

when in sync mode• Switching between Free Run, Reference Input, and Delay The overall propagation delay through the XHD-3902 may change when switching between SDI-1 and SDI-2 while in sync mode. The frame sync buffer is elastic, and may cause as much as a one-frame fluctuation over a long period of time when operating in this mode.

Sync SwitchingWhen receiving the same video format signals on both the Primary and Secondary inputs, the Synchronization Switch parameter (page 119) determines where an input switch would occur.• If the two same video format signals are synchronized to each other,

the Synchronization Switch should be set to On. The input switch would occur as shown in Figure 4-1 on page 81 after the frame sync and before the converter, in order to provide a “clean” switch.

• If the two same video format signals are not synchronized to each other, Synchronization Switching should be set to Off. In this case, the two same video format signals will be switched before the frame sync and the frame sync output will be passed onto the converter. Because the switch occurs before the frame sync, the switch will likely incur momentary freeze-frame, and thus will not be as clean. However, this prevents the output signal from being offset because the line sync buffer is not large enough to hold the entire frame.

Switching inputs with Synchronization Switch in the Off position is slower than using the parameter in the On position, and does not guarantee a fully clean switch. For protected mode operation (using the Protected Mode parameter on page 127), it is recommended that you synchronize the secondary video input before it enters the XHD-3902, and then set the Synchronization Switch parameter to On.When the Synchronization Switch is Off, the primary loss of video behavior setting (controlled with the Primary Loss of Video Mode parameter on page 126) will be used upon loss of secondary video.By default, an Auto setting in the Synchronization Switching parameter (page 119) allows the XHD-3902 module to determine where best to handle the input switch, based on the incoming video signals.

Audio Synchronization and DelayAudio is synchronized to video by applying the same frame sync delay and converter delay (as indicated in “Video Timing” on page 81) to the audio associated with the given video path.By changing the Input Frame Delay control (page 113), you can adjust the frame sync delay and trigger the audio to resynchronize with the video. The audio synchronization will not occur immediately and will take approximately 10 seconds per frame of delay in order to prevent any audio “glitch.”You can add additional delay using the following user delay control parameters found on page 132:• Embedder 1 Master Delay and Embedder 1 Master Delay Set• Embedder 2 Master Delay and Embedder 2 Master Delay Set• Embedder 1 Pair 1 Delay to Embedder 1 Pair 4 Delay • Embedder 2 Pair 1 Delay to Embedder 2 Pair 4 DelayThe user delay is always applied in addition to the audio synchronization and will cause an audio glitch to occur when the user delay changes.

Quiet Switching The XHD-3902 modules provide quiet switching of audio when changing between input sources in the Input Select parameter (page 127), where the options are Primary Input, Secondary Input, and Still Image). The quiet switch will perform the following tasks:• Fade all audio output to mute• Switch audio routing to Primary Input, Secondary Input, or Still

Image• Delay for an amount equal to sum of frame sync delay, converter

delay, and user delay• Fade all audio output back to normalThe delay before restoring the audio accounts for any residual audio from the previous audio source that may be filtering through the system because of the combined delay path.



Tree View Parameter ListThe Tree View is one of the three card-edge navigation modes available on the XHD-3902 modules (CCS-enabled software and hardware devices use a mode that is similar to the card-edge view). Unlike the other navigation modes, the Tree View is a multi-level list of parameters, arranged in the following main groups:• “Input Parameters (Tree View)” on page 107• “Other Parameters (Tree View)” on page 120• “Output Parameters (Tree View)” on page 121• “Processing Parameters (Tree View)” on page 129• “Setup Parameters (Card Edge Only)” on page 135(See page 137 for more information on the Setup parameters which govern the operation of the card-edge controls.)

Navigating the Tree View at the Card EdgeTo navigate, and then view or change a parameter from the Tree View using card-edge controls, follow these steps:1. Open the front panel of the NEO frame.2. Press any card-edge control to turn on the VFD display.

The message XHD-3902 appears on the card-edge display. 3. Press the Enter button.

The first two items in the Level One list will appear. 4. Click Nav- (down) on the Nav-/Nav+ switch to view more items in

the Level One list.5. Select the desired item in the Level One list, and then press Enter.

This leads you to the Level Two list. 6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 to view more items in Levels Two, Three, and

Four.



7. If the parameter is selectable, slide the bar to the desired parameter using the Nav+/Nav-switch.ORSelect the desired item in the Level Four list, and then press Enter.

NOTE

If you do not wish to make changes to your settings, return to the previously selected item in the list, and then press Escape to move up a level. See Selectable Parameter Adjust Mode on page 135) to enable or disable this delayed adjust mode feature.

Once the Level Four parameter is set or viewed, you can leave the parameter in its current state, or return to the banner. To return to the XHD-3902 banner, repeatedly press the Escape button. Close the front panel again after you have completed the procedure to prevent the frame from overheating.



Starting Up with the Tree ViewBefore turning on the module’s power, ensure that you have connected a valid video signal and set the conversion mode using the x3902 Mode parameter (page 120). See “Powering Up a Module” on page 68 for complete information. You can reset to the default values for all of the parameters via the Factory Recall parameter (page 120). However, when Factory Recall is activated, the x3902 Mode parameter resets to the first available (licensed) mode. If no valid license key is entered, the x3902 Mode is forced to the None value.

NOTE

Factory Recall immediately reverts to No after the reset is complete.

Read-only parameters are identified with the [RO] designation and are shaded gray. Default user ranges or values are shown in bold. CCS-enabled software and hardware devices use a mode that is similar to the card-edge view

Setup ParametersYou can modify the Setup parameters to configure the card-edge controls for your personal needs. The Setup section appears at the end of all three navigation lists. It consists of these items:• Alarms• Navigation modes• Selectable parameter adjustment modes• Browse modes• Scroll modes• Display intensity• Parameter descriptions• Name• Frame IP• Sync Full• About

NOTE

Setup parameters on a local or remote control panel may be different from the card-edge parameters described here.

The structure of the Setup menu is located in the Tree View, starting on page 135. See your NEO FR-3901, FR-3903, and FR-3923 Mounting Frames Installation and Operation Manual for more information on Setup items, including descriptions and operation notes.



AlarmsXHD-3902 modules provide a default list of nine alarms. You can disable any alarm by modifying the Alarms parameter in the Setup section (page 135). (CCS-enabled software and hardware provide a separate Alarms section. See you product’s manual or online help for details.)When you select Alarms at the card-edge, all of the active alarms are visible in the display, below Configurations. If no alarms are active, only Configuration appears.

Alarm SynchronizationAlarm synchronization is available for an XHD-3902 module if the NEO frame contains a 3901RES-E resource module that supports the feature. When active, alarm synchronization ensures that the alarm configuration settings of card-edge controls and the CCS control software and control panels are consistent.If the XHD-3902 module is set for local control, the alarm settings will appear the same at both the card edge and via CCS, but the settings can only be changed using the card-edge controls. If the module is set for remote control, the alarm settings can be changed via both the card edge and CCS control software and control panels.Alarm configuration settings undergo DejaView (state recovery) automatically. This means that when a module is hot-swapped, the alarm configuration for the new module is updated to the settings of the module that was previously in that slot. See “State Recovery Parameter Availability” on page 140 for more information.

Identifying the Cause of an AlarmTo identify the reason for an alarm at the card-edge, select the active alarm, and then press Enter. A scrolling message appears on the VFD describing the cause of the fault.



Enabling or Disabling an Alarm ParameterTo enable or disable an alarm parameter at the card edge, follow these steps:1. Select Alarms, Configuration, and then press Enter.2. Select one of the alarm parameters, and then press Enter.3. Press Enabled or Disabled. 4. Press Enter to activate the selection.

Restoring Default SettingsTo restore alarms to their default settings at the card edge, follow these steps:1. Select Alarms, select Configuration, and then press Enter.2. Scroll down the list of alarms, and then select Reset.3. Press Enter to activate the selection.

The following table lists the alarms for the XHD-3902 modules. You can enable or disable these settings, but you cannot change the level of the alarm.

If a module should fail and be replaced with a cold spare, the state parameters can be automatically recovered. For more information on this feature, see the NEO FR-3901, FR-3903, and FR-3923 Mounting Frames Installation and Operation Manual.

LEDs and Module IndicatorsEach XHD-3902 module has fourteen card-edge LEDs and four module indicators.The module indicators include Major Alarm and Minor Alarm. These alarms alert users to failures or impending failures within the module. They are also found in the following locations:• As red or yellow LEDs on the 3901AIC Alarm Interconnect

Appendix A

Operator and All Lists of Parameters

OverviewThe All List is a long flat list of all the available parameters, intended for a “Supervisor” security designation. The Operator List is a condensed version of the All List, and is intended for an “Operator” security designation. This appendix includes the following sections:• “Navigating the Operator and All Lists” on page 154• “Operator and All List Parameters” on page 155


Appendix A: Operator and All Lists of Parameters

Navigating the Operator and All ListsMany card-edge users prefer to configure XHD-3902 modules using the Tree View as shown on page 105 (CCS-enabled software and hardware uses navigation that is similar to the Tree View). However, the Operator List and All List provide additional views of the module parameters. To navigate, and then view or change a parameter from the Operator or All Lists at the module’s card-edge, follow these steps:1. Open the front panel of the NEO frame.2. Press any card-edge control to turn on the VFD screen.

The message XHD-3902 appears. If a previous user has left the display at a different parameter name, repeatedly press the Escape button until module name appears.

3. Push the Enter button.The name of the first parameter option in the list appears. After several seconds of inactivity, a scrolling message will appear, describing the purpose of the currently selected parameter.

4. Push the Enter button again to access the options for the parameter displayed on the VFD screen.ORPress the Nav+/Nav- switch down repeatedly to view other parameters, and then press Enter to access an item’s parameter options.

5. Press the Nav+/Nav- switch up or down to scroll through the different selectable parameter options, and then press Enter to select the value you want.ORPress the Nav+/Nav- switch up or down to adjust the numeric parameter value, and then press Enter.

6. Close the front panel of the frame to ensure the cooling system continues to operate properly.



Operator and All List ParametersThe All List is a long flat list of all the available parameters, intended for a “Supervisor” security designation. The Operator List is a condensed version of the All List, and is intended for an “Operator” security designation. The following table shows all of the available parameters. Parameters that you can access only from within the All List are shaded in gray. Parameters with the designation [RO] are “read-only.” Default user ranges or values are shown in bold.Ensure that you connect to a video input and set the x3902 Mode parameter (below) before turning on the module’s power (see page 68).For instructions on navigating this list using card-edge controls, see page 154.

NOTE

You can reset to the default values for all of the parameters via the Factory Recall parameter, found on page 176. However, when this happens, the x3902 Mode parameter (page 156) resets to the first available (licensed) mode. If no valid license key is entered, x3902 Mode is forced to None.
