2.1.8. Analog Audio and Video Test Generator Connections (STG Option)
ANALOG TG OUT This BNC connector has an analog composite video output compatible with the
SMPTE 170M or ITU 624-4 standards. The ANALOG TEST GEN group of sub-menus
on the OUTPUT Setup menu is used to configure the Analog test generator outputs.
(See section 3.6.3.) The ANALOG TEST SIGS sub-menu on the OUTPUT Setup menu
selects the test signal available on the ANALOG TG OUT connector. (See section
3.6.3.3.4.)
AES OUT This BNC connector has an unbalanced AES audio tone compatible with the AES3-1992
and SMPTE 276M standards. A balanced version of this signal is available on the
DARS/AES/ANALOG 12 pin terminal strip. The AUDIO EVENT 1 to AUDIO EVENT 10
sets of sub-menus on the OUTPUT Setup menu are used to configure the AES audio
and analog audio outputs. (See section 3.6.9.)
DARS OUT This BNC connector has an unbalanced Digital Audio Reference signal (DARS)
compatible with the AES3-1992 and SMPTE 276M standards. A balanced version of
this signal is available on the DARS/AES/ANALOG 12 pin terminal strip. The
AES/DARS OUTPUT sub-menus on the OUTPUT Setup menu is used to configure the
phase of the AES and DARS outputs. (See section 3.6.12.)
DARS/AES/ANALOG This 12 pin terminal strip has a balanced version of the AES and DARS signals
as well as two balanced analog audio signals. The analog audio outputs will have the
same tones that are present on the AES signal. The output audio cables can be
secured into the removable portion of the terminal strips using a small screwdriver. The
removable part of the terminal strip is then inserted into the rear panel and secured
using the hold down screws. The pinout of this connector is shown in Table 2-6.

The AUDIO EVENT 1 to AUDIO EVENT 10 sets of sub-menus on the OUTPUT Setup
menu are used to configure the AES audio and analog audio outputs. (See section
3.6.9.) The AES/DARS OUTPUT sub-menu on the OUTPUT Setup menu is used to
configure the phase of the AES and DARS outputs. (See section 3.6.12.)
2.1.9. SDI Test Generator Connections (STG Option)
The SDI TEST GEN group of sub-menus on the OUTPUT Setup menu is used to configure the SDI test
generator outputs. (See section 3.6.5.)
SD SDI TG OUT This pair of BNC connectors has serial component video outputs compatible with the
SMPTE 259M-C standard. The SDI TEST SIGNALS sub-menu on the OUTPUT Setup
menu selects the test signal available on the SD SDI TG OUT connectors. (See section
3.6.5.4.5.)
SD SDI BLACK This pair of BNC connectors contain a black serial component video signal
compatible with the SMPTE 259M-C standard.
