Mini Switches
Mini Converter Heavy Duty SDI to Analog’s mini switches are protected by a rubber hood. Open the hood
by lifting the edges with your fingernails. The mini switches provide the following settings:
Switch 8 - Analog Audio, AES/EBU Audio
Set switch 8 to OFF to select balanced analog audio, or to ON for digital AES/EBU audio output.
Switch 7 - 7.5 IRE - 0.0 IRE
The USA and countries using NTSC with 7.5 setup should set switch 7 to OFF. If you’re working in countries
not using 7.5 setup, set switch 7 to ON. This setting only affects composite or S-Video outputs.
Switch 6 - SMPTE Levels - Betacam Levels
Set switch 6 to OFF for SMPTE levels, or ON for Betacam levels. SMPTE levels are more common and even
Betacam SP decks can use SMPTE levels, so only switch this to Betacam if you are sure that Betacam levels
are being used.
Switch 5 - Component, Composite or S-Video
Set switch 5 to OFF to select analog component video output, or to ON for composite video and S-Video
outputs.
To display the HD video input on the S-Video and composite outputs, down conversion must be set to ON.
Component analog video supports both HD and SD video.
Switch 4 - SDI Audio De-Embed Bit 2
Switches 4, 3 and 2 are grouped together to provide eight ON/OFF combinations. Having eight different
combinations allows eight independent pairs of audio channels to be de-embedded from your SDI input.
Switch 3 - SDI Audio De-Embed Bit 1

Switch 2 - SDI Audio De-Embed Bit 0
