General
In the Input configuration men u users can assign input connectors to inputs and adjust parameters to match the incom ing signal
format and timing parameters.
Input Card arrangement
On the E2 model, the input cards occupy slots 3 through 10 and are right jus tified to slot 10.
On the S3–4K model, the input cards occupy slots 4 through 6 and are right justified to slot 6.
If there is an empty input slot between two input slots, all input cards to the left of the empty slot are m arked with red. Red indicates
that although the c ards will operate properly, inputs from these cards will not be available at the Multiviewer.

If the card in the slot is wrong type (e.g. output card in input slot, or vice v ersa) then the slot in the diagram will be greyed out.
Input Connector Grouping
The reason for c onnector gr ouping is that in order to accommodate higher resolutions with no loss of quality bandwidth ha s to be
added to the signalpath. By c ombining connectors a higher resolution all the way up to 4K@60H z with progressive scan can be
added with its full color space 4:4:4.
There several rules that applies when defining an input c onfiguration:
1. Every Input connec tor can only be as signed to one input.
2. Input types in the same configuration m ust be of
the sam e t ype and in the same slot or in adjacent slots. F or example, cannot
have a HDM I connector and an SDI connector in the sam e input configuration. Ex ception to this is the HDMI and DVI connec-
tors.
3. An input can be defined from one, two or four connectors.
4. A group ed connector is still ONE input.
5. Once an input connector is as signed to an input that already contains another one.
6. Maximum of 4 connectors can be assigned to a layer
, Input.
7. Maximum of 8 connec tors can be assigned to a bac kground, B ackground.
8. Maximum of 128 input configurations can be assigned.
