5 Using Your Analog Video to SDI Converter
You can use your FC-7501, to convert professional quality composite
video, s-Video or component video (as the example in Figure 2 illustrates)
to one or two SDI video outputs.
To convert component video to two SDI video outputs, do the following:
1. Connect a component video source (for example, a Betacam component
VCR) to the component video BNC input connectors, Y, B-Y, and R-Y.
2. Connect both SDI outputs to SDI acceptors as follows (when only one SDI
output is required, use either of the SDI outputs of the FC-7501, and leave
the other SDI output unconnected):
 Connect the SDI OUT 1 BNC connector to an SDI acceptor
(for example, a Non-Linear Editor)
 Connect the SDI OUT 2 BNC connector to the second SDI
acceptor (for example, an SDI monitor)
3. Connect the component video loop connectors, LOOP Y, LOOP B-Y,
and LOOP R-Y, to a component monitor, and release the Hi-Z/75
button to Hi-Z (optional).
When the inputs are not looped, the Hi-Z/75 button should be pressed
4. Connect the 12V DC power adapter to the power socket and connect the
adapter to the mains electricity.
1 For s-Video, connect the CV/Y and the C/R-Y connectors
2 For component video, connect all 3 connectors: Y, B-Y, and R-Y
3 Push in to terminate the input. Release when the input extends to another unit
