SDI and RS-422 Extension Card Connectors
Figure 72: SDI and remote control connections, DVS Centaurus II
The SDI and RS-422 panel is included in the standard configuration of DVS
Centaurus II. It provides the connectors for the second link of the dual-link
connections. Additionally a CVBS output is installed on this panel that provides a
composite video signal showing the fill signal generated by Viz Engine.
The RS-422 connector available on the panel is a DB-15 (HD) connector.
Note: This connector does not provide any additional functionality in regards to Viz
Engine and should be ignored. The RS-422 port is not accessible to the operating
system and can therefore not be used to transceive any kind of data by third-party
applications.
• (HD) SDI In B: BNC connector for a video input at port B (serial digital
interface); usually used for an input of the second video channel in single-link
(YUV) or the second stream of YUVA or RGBA in dual-link mode.
• (HD) SDI Out B: BNC connector for a video output at port B (serial digital
interface); usually used for an output of the second video channel in singlelink (YUV) or the second stream of YUVA or RGBA in dual-link mode.
• CVBS Out: BNC connector for a composite video burst signal, either analogue
output of SD video or used for synchronization purposes. Provides the fill
output of Viz engine as an analogue signal.
• RS-422 In & Out: DB-15 (HD) connector (female), serial RS-422 interface for
master/slave control, a breakout cable to two DB-9 connectors is included in
the delivery.
Note: This RS-422 connector is inactive and not accessible to the OS and can
therefore not be used to transceive data.
