• HDTV 3G: 1080p/60, 1080p/59.94, 1080p/50

Multiple 3G Streaming Modes

• One 3G stream, on both connectors. Direct mapping Level A (SMPTE 425)
• Two individual 1.5G streams, one per BNC Connector. Dual Link. (SMPTE 372)
• Two individual 1.5G streams multiplexed into a single 3G stream.
• Dual Link Level B (SMPTE 425)

Embedded Audio Generator

• 4 x independent audio channels (2 Stereo pairs) each with adjustable level and frequency
• Preset frequency selections: 50, 100, 200, 250, 400, 500, 800, 1k, 2k, 4k, 8k, 16kHz
• Level adjustments: 0 to -79dBFS in 1dB steps
• All 4 channels available to both SDI output embedders, which can embed 8 channels into any two groups (selectable). Each SDI Embedder can be configured independently with different groups and channel assignments.
• Note: When SMPTE 525 dual stream or dual link mode is used, audio is embedded into both streams.

Analog Reference Sync Output or input (Genlock)

• 1 x analog sync connection. BNC connection, 75 Ohm. Configurable as output or input. (Genlock)
• Reference output is the same standard as the selected SDI output
  • SDTV = Bi-level analog sync output (no burst or video content)
  • HDTV = Tri-level analog sync output
• Reference Input will frequency lock the Testor Lite to the connected reference
  • SDTV = Bi-level analog sync or Black Burst input
  • HDTV = Tri-level analog sync input
