6.2. V3X Video and Reference Boards

6.2.1. Description

The V3X board is divided in 3 parts: a base board identified as V3X base (rear section and

center extension), and two modules identified as COD A V3X (front left) and COD B V3X

(front right).

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 new feature(s):

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

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

back 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.

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.
