Free Run mode uses the SP-14’s in-built clocks to provide sync timing.
Note that if you choose Auto Format mode then the output resolution and frame rate will be
determined by the external Genlock reference.
Note that if you choose Frame Synchronize mode the resolution is set in the ‘Output Format’ but the
frame rate is synchronised to the Genlock signal when the genlock signal and frame rate of the mode
set under Output Format are identical. This is for applications such as using a standard definition
(SD) reference when outputting a high definition (HD) signal or vice versa.
If the genlock signal and the Output Format are both HD or SD then the output format and genlock
signal format need to be identical to obtain a lock. Cross lock combinations that are not supported
are reported in the menu status screen as not available (NA).
Genlock Reference
Item 2 on this section of menu ‘Reference Source’ enables the choice of either Bi/Tri Level Analogue
reference or Digital SDI reference. Note these have separate input sockets on the back panel
Item 3 on this section of menu ‘Reference Offset’ enables full broadcast genlock timing adjustment
