Trouble Slide
Enables or disables the output of the currently selected trouble slide.
Valid Settings: Disable, Enable
Default Setting: Disable
Related Setting: Trouble File
Enabling Trouble Slide immediately sends the currently selected trouble slide to all
video outputs. The trouble slide to be displayed is selected in the Trouble File option
documented later in this section.
Trouble File
Selects the image to be output when the trouble slide display is enabled (either
manually, by GPI trigger, or by the Hot Switch option).
Valid Settings: <list of test patterns>
Default Setting: <default>
Related Setting: Trouble Slide, Hot Switch
When this option is selected, the display panel shows a list of available images, and
indicates which one is currently selected (active). The currently selected image is
changed by scrolling through the list with the control knob, and pressing the Enter
key to select the desired file. The file will be loaded, and you will be returned to the
Video Setup menu. This does not activate the trouble slide; it simply loads the file
into memory. If the trouble slide output is already enabled when a new image is
selected, the output will be switched to the new image.
These images could have been uploaded to the unit from a PC or grabbed from video
from the TSG/Image Grabbing menu. See Appendix D, “The Uploader Software” or
Appendix F, “Ethernet Control”, for instructions on uploading new images to the unit,
and Chapter 11, “Menus: TSG/Image Grabbing,” for instructions on grabbing images
from video.
A standard trouble slide, named <default>, is always selectable from this list, and
consists of Full Field Bars (NTSC) or EBU Bars (PAL) behind the Source ID text
specified in Source ID option of the System Config menu.
Freeze Mode
Selects which freeze mode will be applied to the incoming video. The selected mode
is activated by the Take button on the front panel of the unit.
Valid Settings: Frame, Field, Strobe, Film
Default Setting: Field
Related Settings: Field Select, Strobe Rate, Mute in Freeze
Frame mode freezes an entire frame of the incoming video.
Field mode freezes a single field of the incoming video; which field will be frozen is
set in the Field Select menu option.
Strobe mode strobes the incoming video; the strobe rate is set in the Strobe Rate menu
option.
