Connecting the output signals
Video output All video output signals are output at BNC connectors. Each video output comprises
two BNC connectors, one marked 1 and the other one marked 2. The two connectors
carry the same signal.
The following video output signals are supported:
• 270 Mbit/s digital SDI, connector pair marked SDI OUT, 1 and 2
• Analog composite PAL or NTSC, connector pair marked COMPOSITE OUT 1
and 2
Inserting VBI signals The S
TELLAR
provides a ghost cancellation reference signal (GCR) which may be
inserted in the composite output of the decoder. The S
TELLAR
provides internally
stored VITS lines. These signals may be inserted in the composite output of the
decoder. Up to two VITS lines per field can be inserted in the composite output in the
decoder. For further information on VBI signals, see VBI signals for PAL and NTSC
systems, in The Stellar MPEG-2 Decoder, p. 3.
Video output formats The following table shows the possible video output formats for one single video
channel depending on which video output module is installed:
Audio output Up to two stereo channels can be output at the S
TELLAR
decoders. In the user inter-
face you configure the output to be analog or digital AES/EBU. All audio output is
output at XLR female connectors. The following table shows the pin allocation for an
XLR connector.
Example: The analog audio outputs for audio channel 1 are connected to the
XLR connector pair marked AUDIO OUT 1, L and R. Single channel

Default setting
Composite only The S
TELLAR
decoders detects the output format as PAL,
PAL-M or NTSC and configures the decoding process
accordingly.
Component only The S
TELLAR
decoders detects the output format as 525
lines or 625 lines and configures the decoding process
accordingly.
Composite and
component
Both formats, composite and component, are output on
their respective connectors.
