SDI7 Dual Channel SD/HD/3G SDI Video Generator module
To select the test sig n al on
the SDI7 module
All of the signa
l sets that are available in the module are already assigned to the
corresponding test signal buttons. (See Table 3-59.) When the SDI7 module is
selected and you press any of the front-panel test signal buttons, t he selected
signal in the signal set is output. (See Figure 3-115.)
For example, when you press the COLOR BAR test signal button, a signal in
the Color Bars signal set is output. Use the left ()orright() arrow button, or
press the COLOR BAR test signal button repeatedly to select a different signal
from the Color Bars signal set.

The following table lists the signal set assigned to each test signal button and the

Button name Signals in the signal set Description
COLOR BAR 100% Color Bars,
75% Color Bars (100% White),
75% Color Bars (75% White)
Eight full-height bars of white, yellow, cyan, green, magenta, red,
blue, and black. This pattern is available with three variations, at
100% value for all bars, at 75% value for colors and 100% for
white, and at 75% value for all bars.
100% Color Bars Over Red,
75% Color Bars Over Red
These variations on color bars are available only i n the 625 50i
format of the SD output mode. They consist of the 75% or 100%
color bars signal on the top half of the raster, and a matching 75%
or 100% red eld on the lower half.
SMPTE EG1 Color Bars Color bars per SMPTE EG 1-1990. This pattern includes 75%
color bars, reverse blue bars, I and +Q sections, black, white,
and pluge sections. Note that this pattern is only available for
YCbCr formats, since the I and +Q sections contain c olor
components outside of the legal RGB gamut. For the SD output
mode, this pattern is available only for the 525-line 59.94i format.
SMPTE RP219 Color Bars Color bars per SMPTE RP 219-2002. This pattern is intended for
16×9 aspect ratio displays, with additional elements as compared
to EG1 bars. The SDI7 implementation includes I and +Q
sections, but unlike the similar sections in EG1 bars, they have
additional luminance to stay within R GB gamut. The 2% patch
of the pluge section is clipped to 0% black for XYZ formats. For
SD, the color bars are the 4:3 aspect ratio version, as if converted
from the 16:9 image with a center cut.
