For “Input 5-8 Format” (MVS-8000X/7000X), and
“Input 9-12 Format” and “Input 13-16 Format” (MVS-
8000X only), set the desired signal format in the same
way as in steps 3 and 4.
6
To set the output format for format converters 1 and 2,
in the <SWR1 FC Output> group press [Output 1-2
Format], then press the button for the desired format.

To delay unconverted input signals (frame delay
function)
When the signal format is 720P/59.94, 720P/50, 1080i/
59.94, or 1080i/50, you can press [Frame Delay] in the
pop-up window shown in step 3 and step 5 to delay input
signals.
For the format of the format converter input signal, the
same format as the signal format is shown.
Notes
•
The amount of delay that can be configured is given
below.
-
If the signal format is 1080i: up to 8 frames in 1-frame
units
-
If the signal format is 720P: up to 16 frames in 2-frame
units
The input signal must be synchronized to the reference
signal to obtain the same delay as that configured.
For details, see “Setting the Frame Delay Function”
(page 614).
•
You can use the frame delay function as a frame
synchronizer by setting the delay value to “1.” However,
the frame synchronizer introduces the following delay.
-
If the signal format is 1080i: 1 frame with respect to
the reference signal
-
If the signal format is 720P: 0.5 frames, 1 frame, or 1.5
frames with respect to the reference signal
