C2-1000 SERIES OPERATION MANUAL

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.

If the Lock source you choose is not valid, then Genlock or Lock & Mix will be

temporarily disabled, until the Lock source becomes valid again. When disabled, the

resolution previously specified in ‘Output res’ becomes the output resolution.

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).

HDCP is handled only on certain units with DVI outputs, so this menu may not

appear on your own unit. HDCP is a ‘High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection’

system, which can ensure that a high definition video signal cannot be received by

units not equipped with a HDCP receiver.

This menu lets you see the current status of the output and whether HDCP is

supported or active, and also lets you turn off the output’s HDCP encryption system.

Note, however, that turning HDCP off at the output will also prevent HDCP-encrypted

signals from being received by the unit – see the table below.

By default, HDCP on the output is turned On - so that if your attached DVI display is

HDCP-compliant, then your output will be encrypted (regardless of whether the input

to the scaler is encrypted). Note that you don’t have to attach a display to the output

of the scaler – another unit can be connected instead, in which case that unit is

known as a ‘repeater’.

Please also see the HDCP menu item in ‘Adjust sources’, as this controls availability

of HDCP at the DVI input. The status message given in brackets has the following

meaning:

1024 x 768 60Hz

HDCP (Active) On

1024 x 768 60Hz
