A premature termination of the software update process leads to the
complete loss of the firmware but does not erase the nanosyncs HD
BIOS. Please switch the unit off and on again, use the Read
command and restart the firmware update procedure again.

If a CRC error occurs, the software update process is stopped and is
indicated by all LEDs flashing in a slow 2 second beat (0,5 Hz).

After a successful firmware update the unit starts and shows the new
firmware version.
The previous menu settings are saved but should be verified, as the
new firmware possibly contains new features and settings.


13 . nanoSETUP Software


nanoSETUP is a free utility program running under Windows XP or
later.

One or multiple nanosyncs units can be configured with this software.

The "READ" command lists connected nanosyncs HD units with
serial number and firmware version and imports the actual settings of
the selected unit.

In the main window you find the standard controls for:

VIDEO REFERENCE
SD / HD VIDEO GENERATOR
AUDIO REFERENCE
SAMPLE RATE
MULTIPLIERS
CONFIG PROTECT

Press the "TRANSMIT SETTINGS" button to send and store the
current configuration non volatile.

A subsequent READ command can be sent to verify the transfer and
storage of the new settings.

In addition to the standard menu parameters, which are also
available with the local controls, you can configure special functions
and settings of the nanosyncs HD non volatile:


(1) NTSC PEDESTALS

NTSC Pedestals can be switched on/ off to set the black level of SD
NTSC sync signals to +7.5 IRE (as used in the USA).

(2) USE INTERNAL SUBCARRIER

This setting only applies when the unit is locked to an external PAL or
NTSC reference and the internal SD generator is running the same
standard:

VIDEO REFERENCE = EXT. PAL and SD STD = PAL
VIDEO REFERENCE = EXT. NTSC and SD STD = NTSC.

In these two operation modes the nanosyncs HD synchronises by
default the colour subcarrier 1:1 to the incoming subcarrier (colour
burst).

This 1:1 subcarrier tracking can modify the absolute SC-H phase but
also preserves the 4/ 8 (NTSC/ PAL) field colour framing sequence
from the external reference.

The USE INTERNAL SUBCARRIER control disables the external
subcarrier tracking and guarantees correct absolute SC-H phase on
the SD video outputs without respect to the colour framing sequence
of the external reference.


(3) BLACK ROSENDAHL "Black Rosendahl on VO6" changes the
HD trilevel sync output on video output 6 (VO6) into a bi-level sync
signal as used by Dolby Encoders/ Decoders. The frame rate of this
signal follows the selected HD standard setting.

(4) "Pilotton on WO8" outputs a 47.95, 48, 50, 59.94 or 60Hz square
wave signal on word clock output 8 according to the SD standard
selection.
