Output follows the input format
Audio is embedded to SMPTE 272M or SMPTE 299M

ANALOGUE REFERENCE
Tri-level syncs or analogue Black and Burst or video
HD or SD source can use either type of reference
When cross locking it is necessary for both the video input and reference to share the same frame rate
Amplitude of syncs 150mV to 600mV
Link on PCB selects 75 ohm termination or high impedance

TIMING ADJUSTMENTS
SYNNER HD synchronises at three separate points within each field or frame: at the start of the field/frame, just after the switching point and at the start of the active field/frame
In synchroniser mode SYNNER HD takes its timing from the analogue external reference and will automatically synchronise sources between 0 and 1 frame. Should the reference be removed SYNNER HD will run in delay mode locked to the main input
The timing can be fully adjusted using horizontal and vertical settings. Increasing the vertical setting will delay the output relative to the reference in increments of one line. Increasing the horizontal setting will increase this delay in increments of approx. 74ns for SD and 13.5ns for HD. The maximum setting of both controls will provide a delay of one frame plus approx. 2us

FREEZE FUNCTIONS
Manual freeze allows the SYNNER HD to be used as a simple still store. Selecting single field output can counteract any flicker caused by the interlacing of the two fields on a picture with significant movement. Either field can be selected. The single field is output only when the picture is frozen. Automatic freeze is available when input fails through loss of signal. The user can specify to show the whole frame in which failure happened, field 1 or 2 of the last frame or alternatively a black or blue screen (with or without an initial delay)

VIDEO DELAY THROUGH BOARD
2us min - 1 frame plus 2us max

AUDIO INPUTS AND OUTPUTS (OPTIONAL)
Piggybacks can be added to the main board to enable either input or output of 2 x AES or 2 x analogue stereo pairs. Fit one piggyback for one audio group or two piggybacks for two audio groups
Use HD-AIP2 to input analogue audio. Use HD-DIP2-RS to input AES audio. Use HD-DIP2 to input AES audio only when there is a requirement to bypass the tracking audio delay
Use HD-AOP2 to output analogue audio. Use HD-DOP2-75 to output 75 ohm AES. Use HD-DOP2-110 to output 110 ohm AES audio

AUDIO TIMING ADJUSTMENTS
The audio is normally delayed by the same amount as the video but an additional delay can be added to the audio of up to 20ms
Tracking delay auto or off
