- Without GYDA controller (This is the default setting upon shipping)
- 1. Set DIP-switch 1 on (towards backplane), switches 2 and 3 according to the input mode you want (see Table 2 on page 9).
- 2. Insert ADC-SDI-CC into a slot in the sub-rack.
- 3. Attach Analogue input (CVBS, S-Video, RGB+sync or YPbPr) and SDI-output to the backplane module (see Figure 2 on page 7).
- 4. Power on. After some seconds the ADC-SDI-CC will be running, and the input detected. All LED’s will be green and the SDI output active. If this is not the case, please see section 5.2 Front Panel - Status Monitoring on page 12.
- With GYDA controller (firmware> 1.1)
- Insert ADC-SDI-CC into a slot in the sub-rack.
- Attach Analogue input (CVBS, S-Video, RGB+sync or YPbPr) and SDI-output to the backplane module (see Figure 2 on page 7).
- Power on. After a few seconds the ADC-SDI-CC will be running, and the card detected by GYDA. Use GYDA to set up which analogue video format to use, CVBS, S-Video, RGB+sync or YPbPr. All LED’s will now be green and the SDI output active. The card settings are stored on the card which means that the card will remember its configuration despite any eventual power loss.
- 1. General
- The flashlink ADC-SDI-CC is a high quality digital video decoder that digitises and decodes all popular baseband video formats into SDI 4:2:2 digital component video. The ADC-SDI-CC supports the analogue-to-digital conversion of component RGB and YPbPr signals, as well as the decoding of NTSC and PAL composite and S-video into component digital video. This decoder features four 10-bit A/D converters running with 2 x oversampling (27MHz), which are then digitally filtered and decimated to the 1 x pixel rate giving a higher signal-to-noise ratio for each input channel.
- When used with the GYDA control system, gain adjustments may be made to each analogue input.
- Composite video decoding utilises a 5-line adaptive comb filter for both the luma and chroma signal paths to reduce cross-luma and cross-chroma artefacts. A alternative chroma trap filter is also available. On composite and S-video inputs, the user can control video characteristics such as contrast, brightness, saturation and hue via the GYDA control interface. The GYDA system controller is used with all flashlink and flashlink modules providing a common control and monitoring platform.
- ADC-SDI-CC features:
- · Multi-standard NTSC, PAL, YPbPr, RGB Decoder/Converter
- · 10 bit 4:2:2 SDI video quality
- · 5 line adaptive comb filter for NTSC/PAL decoding
- · EDH generation and insertion
- · 2 x oversampling of both composite and component video
- · 10 bit component 8:8:8 oversampling with digital 4:2:2 decimation and down-conversion
- · VBI data transparent
- · 3 SDI outputs

- 4. Configuration and Setup
- Figure 3 - ADC-SDI-CC simplified silkscreen.
- The ADC-SDI-CC card has a Dual-Inline switch (DIP-switch) that has 10 individual On/Off switches. The purpose of these switches is to provide an easy interface to some of the most used features of the ADC-SDI-CC card, without the need of a GYDA controller. The switches are numbered from '1' towards the top of the card, see Figure 3 . A switch is off when the tap is placed in direction of the front handle.

- Switch 4
- Switch 4 turns on/off the Mark Field 1-feature. With switch 4 off the Mark Field 1-feature is disabled, with switch 4 on the Mark Field 1-feature is enabled and the card inserts a marker on line x of each field 1. This features gives improved encoding quality when used with an encoder like the DAC-SDI which can use this feature.
- Factory setting is switch 4 in on position.
- Switch 5
- Switch 5 selects which filter to use when separating Luma from Chroma in CVBS. With switch 5 on, the 5-line comb filter is selected, with switch 5 off, the chroma trap filter is selected.
- Factory setting is switch 5 in on position.
- Switch 6
- Switch 6 selects whether pedestal is present on the analogue video. With switch 6 on, the black level will be set to 7,5 IRE. With switch 6 off, the black level will be 0 IRE. This switch only affects 525 lines video. Typically a black level of 7,5 IRE is used in the USA and 0 IRE in Japan.
- Factory setting is switch 6 in on position.
- Switches 7 and 9 - Reserved
- These switches are reserved and should always be in the off position.
- Factory setting are switch 7 and 9 in off position.
- Switch 8 - Reset to factory default
- ADC-SDI-CC contains an EEPROM which stores the configuration of the card. Switch 8 can be used to reset the EEPROM to the factory default. Follow the procedure described below.
- Action
- Comment
- 1
- Power down.
- 2
- Turn switch 8 on.
- Switch 1 must also be turned on for this to have effect.
- 3
- Power up.
- ADC-SDI-CC enters a special state where the EEPROM is restored to factory default values. This is flagged by the Card State LED, which starts to blink yellow.
- 4
- Power down.
- 5
- Turn switch 8 off.
- If you want the DIP switches to be placed in the factory default position, this is the time to do so: Switch 10 should, as always, be turned to the on position. Switch 1 may be turned on or off.
- 6
- Power up.
- The card EEPROM is now reset to factory settings.
- Table 3: Method to restore the ADC-SDI-CC card to factory settings. Remember to let some seconds pass by each time you power down, to allow capacitors to be fully discharged.
- Switch 10 - Run mode
- Switch 10 is purely used for service upgrade of the ADC-SDI-CC card. It should always be in the on position. If switch 10 is in the off position, the Card State LED will light up red, and the ADC-SDI-CC card will enter programming mode. This causes no harm, but the card will not work in this mode.
- Factory setting is switch 10 in on position.
- The push-button just behind the front LEDs is a reset switch, see Figure 3 . It has the same effect as a power off – power on cycle.
- 5. Module status
- The status of the module can be monitored in two ways.
- 1. GYDA System Controller (optional).
- 2. LED’s at the front of the sub-rack.
- The LED’s are mounted on the module itself, whereas the GYDA System Controller is a separate module which gives detailed information on the card status. The functions of the LED’s are described on the next page. The GYDA controller is described in a separate user manual. This manual is available on our web site: http://www.network-electronics.com/
- These outputs can be used for wiring up alarms for third party control systems. The GPI outputs are open collector outputs, sinking to ground when an alarm is triggered. The GPI connector is shown in Figure 4 .

- The “info” command is composed by many minor lines, fully specified in table 6. In general, when a condition is normal, it is not reported. For instance, pedestal is reported when locked to 50Hz, even tough the setting has no effect on the video.
- The CVBS, RGB, Svideo and YPbPr commands sets the video input mode. Remember that RGB -mode needs separate sync on the CVBS/Luma channel. This sync may be a synchronous CVBS-signal.
- Commands to turn on/off the Mark Field 1-feature, Pedestal and the Comb filter commands are straightforward text, see Table 5 .
- These commands are for internal factory use. The end-user should avoid these commands.

- Environmentally-friendly use period
- The manual must include a statement of the “environmentally friendly use period”. This is defined as the period of normal use before any hazardous material is released to the environment. The guidance on how the EFUP is to be calculated is not finalised at the time of writing. See http://www.aeanet.org/GovernmentAffairs/qfLeOpAaZXaMxqGjSFbEidSdPNtpT.pdf for an unofficial translation of the draft guidance. For our own products, Network Electronics has chosen to use the 50 year figure recommended in this draft regulation.
- Network Electronics suggests the following statement on An “Environmentally Friendly Use Period” (EFUP) setting out normal use:
- EFUP is the time the product can be used in normal service life without leaking the hazardous materials. We expect the normal use environment to be in an equipment room at controlled temperature range (0ºC 40ºC) with moderate humidity (< 90%, non-condensing) and clean air, not subject to vibration or shock.
- Further, a statement on any hazardous material content, for instance, for a product that uses some tin/lead solders:
- Where a product contains potentially hazardous materials, this is indicated on the product by the appropriate symbol containing the EFUP. The hazardous material content is limited to lead (Pb) in some solders. This is extremely stable in normal use and the EFUP is taken as 50 years, by comparison with the EFUP given for Digital Exchange/Switching Platform in equipment in Appendix A of “General Rule of Environment-Friendly Use Period of Electronic Information Products”. This is indicated by the product marking:
- It is assumed that while the product is in normal use, any batteries associated with real-time clocks or battery-backed RAM will be replaced at the regular intervals.
- The EFUP relates only to the environmental impact of the product in normal use, it does not imply that the product will continue to be supported for 50 years.
- Recycling information
- Network Electronics provides assistance to customers and recyclers through our web site http://www.network-electronics.com. Please contact Network Electronics’ Customer Support for assistance with recycling if this site does not show the information you require.
- Where it is not possible to return the product to Network Electronics or its agents for recycling, the following general information may be of assistance:
- Before attempting disassembly, ensure the product is completely disconnected from power and signal connections.
- All major parts are marked or labelled to show their material content.
- Depending on the date of manufacture, this product may contain lead in solder.
- Some circuit boards may contain battery-backed memory devices.
