the first four are displayed in Multi-Input mode. 2xHD video formats may be used
for 3D video content in which the left eye view is typically carried in channel 1
and the right eye in channel 2. The 2xHD formats are definedbySMPTE425

To Customize Input Labels
You can name the input labels from the CONFIG > Graticules and Readouts

tLabelsmenu. Once you are in the Input Labels menu, select an input
and then press the SEL button. A dialog box will appear allowing you to name
the input.
Simultaneous Input Monitoring
Your instrument can monitor two separate signals simultaneously. I n this mode,
the instrument display is divided into two sides, each with two tiles per input.
This allows you to conveniently view measurement and status displays from
two signals at the same time. You can monitor the following combinations:
S
DI + SDI, and SDI + CMPST.
Connect signals for simultaneous monitoring the same way you would for
c
onnecting two SDI signals or one SDI and one Composite signal. (See Figure 10
on page 23.)
