•Post-production

2 SP-4D - Getting Started

2 Getting Started

We recommend that you:

•Unpack the equipment carefully and save the original box and packaging

materials for possible future shipment

•Review the contents of this user manual

•Use Kramer high performance high resolution cables

•Use only the power cord that is supplied with this machine

Go to http://www.kramerelectronics.com to check for up-to-date

user manuals, application programs, and to check if firmware

upgrades are available (where appropriate).

2.1 Achieving the Best Performance

To achieve the best performance:

•Use only good quality connection cables to avoid interference, deterioration

in signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise levels (often

associated with low quality cables)

•Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances that may adversely

influence signal quality

•Position your Kramer SP-4D away from moisture, excessive sunlight and

dust

SP-4D - Overview 3

3 Overview

The SP-4D 4-Channel HD-SDI Synchronizer is a synchronizer for serial digital

signals up to HD-SDI. The unit synchronizes up to four channels from the

dedicated digital genlock input or any other specified channel.

The multi-standard synchronizer SP-4D can convert the frame rate of HDTV

signals without changing the number of lines per frame or the progressive–

interlaced raster structure. It implements cross conversion between any two

standards belonging to the same group. Three groups contain mutually compatible

standards:

•720p: 720p/50, 720p/59.95, 720p/60

•1080i: 1080i/50, 1080i/59.95, 1080i/60, 1080psf/23.97, 1080psf/24,

1080psf/25, 1080psf/29.97, 1080psf/30

•1080p: 1080p/23.97, 1080p/24, 1080p/25, 1080p/29.97, 1080p/30

Each of the four SDI channels contains a special audio synchronizer that de-

embeds all 16 input audio channels, resamples them simultaneously, and embeds

the resulting audio signals in the SDI output. This corrects signal deterioration

such as a frame drop or repetition that may occur during video signal

synchronization.

The SP-4D features:

•Multi-standard operation: SDI (SMPTE 259M and SMPTE 344M) & HDSDI

(SMPTE 292M)

•Four SDI video inputs and outputs (SD, ED and all HD, besides 1080p/50

and 1080p/60) with automatic standard detection (any video input can be

used as the timing reference input for all channels instead of the dedicated

genlock input)

•One dedicated SDI genlock input common for all four channels (also in the

same standard group)

•An audio embedder/de-embedder that handles 16 audio channels per input

4 SP-4D - Overview

•One VGA/UXGA port on a 15-pin HD connector (in YUV or RGBHV format

selectable from menu) to output any one of the four synchronized video

channels

•Unbalanced stereo audio outputs on RCA connectors that can output any of

the embedded audio channels

•A two-line, 20-character per line LCD display that shows the status of

machine while in the main mode of operation

•Seven front panel buttons that control operation of the machine

•Five LEDs that indicate input signal loss or genlock loss

•One RS-232 port for controlling the SP-4D from a serial remote control

device or a PC
