Video Input (2.1):

This parameter selects a video input source from the video input connections available.
This is the video that will be recorded and/or passed through.

Audio Input (2.2):

This parameter selects an audio input source from the audio input connections available.
This is the audio that will be recorded and/or passed through.

Audio Channels (2.3):

This parameter selects use of either two or eight audio channels via SDI embedded
audio.

Component In Level (3.1):

This parameter selects the input level for signals applied at the component video input
connectors.

Component Out Level (3.2):

This parameter selects the output level for signals applied at the component video
output connectors.

NTSC Config (3.4):

This parameter selects the output level for the composite video output connector.

Analog Audio (4.1):

This parameter configures the analog audio signal levels for input and output.
Professional audio equipment has much higher levels than consumer equipment: a 0 VU
reading corresponds to +4 dBu. Connecting a professional +4 dBu device to a consumer
audio input -10dBV (-7.8 dBu) may cause overloading, whereas the output of a consumer
device probably does not have sufficient power to drive a professional audio input. With
consumer and semi-professional audio equipment, a VU reading of 0 dB is typically
referenced to -10 dBV. 0 dBu = 0.775 VRMS.

Upconversion (5.1):

This parameter selects the type of upconversion from SD performed, if set up to do so
with parameters 1.4 through 1.8.

Downconversion (5.2):

This parameter selects the type of downconversion from HD performed, if set up to do so
with parameters 1.4 through 1.8.

Genlock Source (6.1):

This parameter selects the reference video source used for genlocking during playback.

TC In (8.0):

This parameter selects the source of timecode start from those available. Available
timecode sources: TC Value specified in parameter 8.1, an SDI RP188 input, an LTC input, a
Firewire 400 remote input, or the time of day.

TC Value (8.1):

This parameter selects a time for start of timecode when 8.0 is set to TC Value.

TC Type (8.2):

This parameter selects drop frame or non-drop frame timecode.

Arm Recording (8.3):

This parameter selects how recording will begin: either by pressing the Record button (or
web “Record” button) or via timecode, or via LANC data. If starting on timecode,
parameters 8.0, 8.1. and 8.2 must be set to qualify the source and type of timecode. When
timecode or LANC are selected, the Record button also remains active and available to
start recording.

Interval Record (9.0):

The Ki Pro can be used to create timelapse recordings via the 9.0 Interval Record, 9.1
Interval Frames and 9.2 Interval Time selections. Note that the 9.1 and 9.2 menu options
will not appear unless 9.0 Interval Record is enabled.

Interval Frames (9.1):

This parameter determines how many frames from the incoming video will be used for
the recording.

Interval Time (9.2): This parameter determines the time period from which the interval
frames are selected.

Camera Data (13.1):

This parameter controls the use of camera-generated ancillary data. Some cameras
produce ancillary data that Ki Pro Mini users may want to transfer to their recordings.
Examples include: start/stop commands, timecode, reel name, clip name and take. If a
