Provides video Test Signal Generator pattern, output,
failover, and frame sync controls.
• Video Output Mode Video Output Mode selects between automatic failover or manually
invoked TSG output.
• When set to Always Test Signal, card outputs selected TSG output
regardless of presence of valid SDI input.
• When set to Input Video If Present Otherwise Test Signal, card is set
for automatic failover. Valid SDI passes unaffected, with output switching
to selected TSG output only in the event of input SDI loss of signal.
Test Signal Generator
• Generator Output Format Sets TSG output format (as shown from choices to the left) when TSG is
invoked either automatically of manually.
Note: Selection only applies to TSG SDI output and has no relationship
with input video format. It is recommended in normal operation that
this control be set to match that of the normal program video format
being handled by the card.

• Superimposed Text Text entry box for entering text (using keyboard) that is superimposed
over center of TSG image. Press keyboard Enter key to commit text entry.
Note: Maximum character entry is 20 characters.
• Timing Reference Sets output timing to use internal clock timing source, or either of two
frame-supplied framesync sources.
• Internal setting uses card internal (self) clocking. The Internal
setting allows the card to output TSG patterns without any external
signal feeds to the card.
• The Reference 1 and Reference 2 settings allows the card output
to frame sync with an external reference.
Note: Reference 1 and/or Reference 2 settings apply frame sync to
either input video or TSG output.
Note: • Reference 1 and/or Reference 2 settings apply frame sync to
either input video or TSG output.
• This card is not specified for use of 720p tri-level frame sync with
525i5994 program video input. Do not use 720p reference with
525i5994 program video input.
