KONA v10.5 www.aja.com 71
Using KONA 4 and 3G in 4K Mode
In 4K Mode (KONA4/ 3G only), you can input (for capture) or output four channels of
video representing individual quadrants of the higher definition 3840x2160 and
4096x2160 4K formats, see
“Format Screen in 4K Mode” on page 72.
NOTE: The KONA 4/3G can only be configured for either input or output of SDI 4K. It cannot support
4K SDI input and output at the same time since both require four BNCs. KONA 4 can be
configured for 4K SDI input and then use 4K HDMI output to monitor the passthrough video.
Figure 65. Mapping of Quad SDI Outputs
Physical connections of the quadrants will be
mapped to the KONA 4/3G SDI connectors as
shown. For the HDMI and Analog Outputs, you
can from a variety of options for viewing (see
“HDMI Screen in 4K Mode” on page 75 and
“Analog Output Screen in 4K Mode” on page 76 ).
This section describes the AJA Control Panel
operations specific to 4K Mode. Note that in 4K
Mode, you can still capture and playback SD,
HD, and 2K formats, though there are no up/
down/cross conversions available. You will see SDI inputs only when SD, HD, or 2K inputs
are selected. SDI Outputs 1 & 2 will be reconfigured as SDI 1 & 2 Inputs on the screen.
