Reference Setup Menu
The Reference menu allows you to lock the processor to your input video source or to an external
reference.
Input – Selects the current input video source as the reference.
External – Selects the external reference (REF) input.
Valid external reference signals that may be used are dependent on the OUTPUT format conversion
you have chosen. The Processor will auto-detect the reference source, but the reference you are using
must be compatible with the output format.
For SD interlaced output formats (e.g. 486i59.94, 576i50), ONLY blackburst (BLACK) may be used.
The frame rate must match the output format (59.94 or 50).
For HD interlaced output formats (e.g. 1080i59.94, 1080i50), either blackburst (BLACK) or tri-level
interlaced (TRI-I), in the respective frame rate (59.94 or 50), may be used.
For HD Progressive Segmented Frame output formats (e.g. 1080PsF23.98, 1080PsF25), tri-level
interlaced (TRI-I), in the respective frame rate (59.94 or 50), may be used.
For HD progressive output formats (e.g. 720p59.94 or 720p50), either blackburst (BLACK) or tri-level
progressive (TRI-P), in the respective frame rate (59.94 or 50), may be used.
Examples:
Output Format Applicable External Reference Comments
486i59.94 Black (59.94) only Tri-I and Tri-P are not applicable
576i50 Black (50) only Tri-I and Tri-P are not applicable
1080i59.94 Black (59.94) or Tri-I (59.94) Tri-P is not applicable
720 p59.94 Black (59.94) or Tri-P (59.94) Tri-I is not applicable
Please note that if External reference is selected and a valid reference signal has been applied, the REF
Status LED on the front panel will be illuminated.
