Video Input: The pulldown menu allows you to see and change the currently selected video format
that KONA has detected (if any). In the KONA 3G example shown above, video is selected
at the SDI1 input and the format is 1080i with a frame rate of 29,97. Since this text is
shown in blue, you an tell that it matches the framebuffer's primary format selected in
the "Formats" screen. By looking at the input source, you can determine how the
promary format should likely be set (unless you want to perform a conversion on the
input). If you wish to select a different input, use the pulldown to select either SDI 1, 2, or
Dual Link for two-wire 4:4:4 RGB, or Stereo 3D. For 3G single-link, choose the SDI Source
used and select Stereo 3D from the SDI pulldown menu.
Use the LTC/Ref menu pulldown next to Video Input to select how the LTC BNC is used:
• Reference = a Reference standard
• LTC=linear time code (LTC) input.
System Genlock: For video stability and proper system operation, you can genlock all equipment to house
sync. However, genlock is not required due to KONA's excellent freerun accuracy. To
connect genlock, use a black burst generator output looped through the system. On the
KONA, connect house sync to "LTC/Ref In."
