6.2. V3X Video and Reference Boards

6.2.1. Description

Overview

The V3X board is divided in several parts:

• a base board identified as V3X base (rear section and center extension)

• two modules identified as COD A V3X (front left) and COD B V3X (front right)

Warning

It is highly advised not to remove a V3X board from your EVS server. Should

you have to do so, manipulate the board very carefully, making sure it is not

exposed to mechanical or electric shocks.

COD Modules

The COD A V3X and COD B V3X modules are the actual codec modules, each of them

being able to be configured by software either as an encoder (for a record channel) or as a

decoder (for a play channel). The COD V3X modules are SD, HD.

They support the following feature(s):

• Full resolution 3D HD on a single V3X module (Dual Link HD SDI)

Genlock

There are 2 versions of the V3X board: one with genlock, one without genlock.

The genlock model can easily be identified by the presence of 3 quartz synthesizers at the

rear of the V3X base board, on the right-hand side, and by the presence of the GLK and

PSU OK LEDs on either side of the DIN connector at the center front of the board.

Note that a V3X board with genlock must be installed as V3X #1 in first position (slot 2) in

the server. A V3X board with genlock can never be installed in any other slot, and thus

cannot be used instead of V3X #2. Doing so will result in conflicting electrical signals

inside the system.

connectors, jumpers and LEDs location:
