Quick Start Guide
Overview
FS-HDR, a 1RU, rack-mount, universal converter/frame synchronizer, is designed
specifically to meet the HDR (High Dynamic Range) and WCG (Wide Color Gamut)
needs of broadcast, OTT, post and live event AV environments, where real time,
low-latency processing and color fidelity is required for 4K/UltraHD and 2K/HD
workflows. Developed in partnership with Colorfront, the FS-HDR’s HDR/WCG
functionality is powered by Colorfront Engine™ proprietary video processing
algorithms. FS-HDR also serves as a full, 1-channel up, down, cross-converter for
4K/UltraHD/2K/HD conversion and frame sync needs and in 4-Channel mode,
offers 4 independent channels of 2K/HD conversion.
Quick Start Guide Objectives
The FS-HDR can be extremely simple to use, because of its ability to detect
incoming signal formats and automatically apply the correct video processing for
the selected output format. However, the FS-HDR is also extremely powerful and
can be flexibly configured to perform a wide variety of tasks.
This Quick Start Guide is designed to help you get your FS-HDR up and running
for the first time, and confirm it is operating properly. It also provides step-by-
step instructions that demonstrate a few FS-HDR signal processing examples.
