mode can be either Off, Genlock or Lock & Mix, with the operation of these shown
in the following table:
Lock mode
Description
Off
The output resolution of the Output is defined by the setting
for Output Resolution and there will be no background
source visible.
Genlock
The output video will be “Genlocked” to the selected lock
source. The output signal will be synchronous to the input
sync and adjustable but there will still be no lock source
visible.
Lock & Mix
The output video will be locked to the selected source, the
syncs will be locked (but with an additional internal video
processing delay) and the background for the output will be
that of the Lock source (unless foreground and background
are swapped).
In both Genlock and Lock & Mix modes the source selected for the lock input
determines the resolution of the Output image. The output resolution for the entire
image can be no different than the resolution of the lock source. All
synchronization signals are re-generated within the unit so they may look slightly
different when compared on an oscilloscope to the original source.
Before turning the Lock feature on, you first must select a valid
Lock source. Some units may not have all Lock sources
available, depending on hardware limitations – see
Specifications for details of limitations on your unit.
*Not applicable for these units
Your unit can handle a very wide array of inputs and convert them all to a single
output signal with defined characteristics. This output resolution will remain in
place until changed or it may be overridden by the lock mode and source.
The top line of the display will show the current output resolution selected. Some
units will have a limited number of output resolutions depending on their function
(e.g. Down Converters are more limited than Video Scalers).
