• Mode (SDI2)
Select the signal that is generated from SDI OUTPUT 2.
If you select Input Through, SDI OUTPUT 2 transmits a reclocked signal of the signal
received through SDI INPUT 2. However, this is not output when the input is 6G-SDI or
12G-SDI.
If you select Test Signal, SDI OUTPUT 2 outputs various patterns. You can superimpose a
moving box, vary the phase, and so on. You can use the instrument as a signal generator.
Further, on the LV5300/LV5300A and LV5350, you can select Monitor Out. If you select
Monitor Out, SDI OUTPUT 2 transmits the instrument’s screen for monitoring purposes.
Connect to an full high definition (1920×1080) display. On the MONITOR OUT tab of the
SYS menu, select the output format.

• Terminators
The SDI input connectors are terminated internally at 75 Ω, so there is no need to connect
terminators to them. Connect cables with a characteristic impedance of 75 Ω.
• Setting the Display Channels
Configure the display channels using the SDI IN SETUP1 tab of the SYS menu and the
INPUT menu.

• Cables
It has been confirmed that errors do not occur when the instrument receives an 800 mVp-
p stress pattern through the following cables.
