Brompton Technology Tessera M2 - Test Patterns

- 94 -
For interlaced sources the latency is 2 fields for constant current fixtures and 3 fields for
PWMdriver fixtures.
When fixtures that use constant current drivers are mixed with PWMfixtures then the
processor adds a frame of latency on to the constant current driver fixtures to match the
latency of the PWMfixtures.
Latency: We define latency (video delay) as time between the last cycle of a source frame
appearing on the processor's input, and the first cycle that an LEDon a fixture is lit with that
frame.

Processor Test Patterns
The Tessera processor has a selection of built-in test patterns. These can be used to verify
the correct performance of the fixtures and also to verify that a finished layout of fixtures are
in the correct arrangement.
To activate test patterns click on the test pattern button in the right hand corner of the
main project window.

the relevant test pattern
