Diamond digital 1. General 1. GENERAL 1.1 UNIT FAMILY The Diamond digital of BTS provides a new family of video effects switchers in the serial 4:2:2 digital standard for studio and OB van applications. Due to their universal control surfaces, the switchers can be used for broadcast as well as for post production. The switcher family comprises small switchers and modularly designed larger switchers in different expansion phases designed as a modular system using equal p.c. boards and a uniform case.

Diamond digital 1.2 1. General SWITCHER ARCHITECTURE The switchers are set up as A/B mixers in the background (BGND) with 1 or 2 overlaid key layers for each mixing level. The next transition principle is consistently realized and includes also the downstream key stage. The mixing levels and the preset/program stage/downstream keyers are set up with the same p.c. cards and do not differ in their hardwares.
1. General Diamond digital 1.4 CONNECTION FACILITIES 1.4.1 INPUTS The switcher exclusively disposes of serial digital video inputs which, depending on the application, can be used without restrictions, either as background, key or fill signal in all mixing levels (including the downstream keyer). As a standard feature of the switcher, 12 (DD5), 16 (DD10), 24 (DD20) and 32 (DD30) inputs are provided.
Diamond digital 1.4.3 1. General VIDEO OUTPUTS The switcher is provided with the following video outputs: • • • • 4 program outputs 1 clean-feed output (before or between DSK, switchable) 1 output for second DSK preview in PP stage 3 program outputs for each mixing level For preview purposes, the following outputs are available: • 1 preview output for each mixing level, mask signal and wipe pattern signal can be additively connected with the video signal.
1. General 1.5 Diamond digital MIXING STAGES For background designing (BGND), a mixing stage (Mix, Add, Wipe with border) is available for each mixing level (ME). The mix and key stages are set up in a cascaded way and are provided with tappings for coupling in and out signals for a DVE unit. Re-entry of the mixing levels is possible. The preset/program stage (PP) at the output of the switcher is identically designed with regard to the mixing stage.
Diamond digital 1.5.4 1. General DIGITAL VIDEO EFFECTS (DVE) Pattern mix of a video signal supplied by the DVE. The DVE additionally supplies a key signal of the transformed DVE video signal. The procedure of the DVE is coupled with the fader (manual or automatic transition). 1.5.5 WIPE BORDER MATTE GENERATOR Beside the central matte generators, an additional matte generator is provided for coloring the borders of the wipe generators.
1. General 1.6 Diamond digital KEY STAGES 1 or 2 key stages with border facilities are available in the individual mixing levels for effects background designing or for caption insertion (chroma key), (lum key or linear key). The priority can be changed (OVER). The key stages are placed after the background mixing stage, set up in a cascaded way and provided with taps for coupling in and out a signal for a DVE unit.
Diamond digital 1. General Luminance key/linear key The key generator enables a luminance key. The signal can be bordered by means of the borderliner. It is possible to key on all luminance values (CLIP). The rise time (SOFTNESS) of the signal can be steepened. The key signal can be inverted (KEY INVERT). The LINEAR KEY mode allows the use of key and fill signals (on black background) from external sources, e.g. caption generators. The rise times of the signals cannot be varied in this case.
1. General 1.6.5 Diamond digital BORDERLINERS For bordering caption signals generated by chroma luminance or linear key, a borderliner is realized for each keyer. Two borderliners at maximum for DD10. As a standard feature, the following border types are provided: • • • • H, 2H border OUTLINE H, 2H DROPSHADOW H, 2H, 3H, 4H SLANTED SHADOW H, 2H, 3H, 4H positionable in steps over or under the caption. As a fill signal for the border, a border matte generator is available.
Diamond digital 1. General 1.7 SPECIAL EFFECTS GENERATORS 1.7.1 WIPE GENERATORS As a standard feature, a wipe generator is available in each mixing level (preset/ program stage as an option), which can be freely assigned to background transition (BGND) and/or to one or both keyers. The wipe generator supplies the signal for transition (PATTERN) and a border signal (BORDER).

Diamond digital 9. Port Protocols GVG-200 Emulation 9.4 KEY COMMANDS 9.4.1 BORDERLINE MODE COMMAND (B0/B1) Command B0 acts on keyer 1 Command B1 acts on keyer 2 or keyer 5. EXT determines the mixing level. The mode byte is interpreted as follows: 9.4.
9. Port Protocols GVG-200 Emulation 9.5 Diamond digital WIPE GENERATOR COMMANDS If any of the selected effects is not available with the current pattern, no action is taken. For instance, the selection ”vertical wipe multiplication” or ”rotation” for pattern number 1 is just ignored. 9.5.1 WIPE PATTERN SELECT COMMAND (C8) The specified wipe pattern number is to be selected. There is no translation of wipe pattern numbers, so that the wipe pattern number of the Diamond digital has to be specified.
Diamond digital 9.5.6 9. Port Protocols GVG-200 Emulation AUTO TRANSITION RATE COMMAND (CC, CD) The command byte is followed by three ”rate bytes” which contain the auto transition time in BCD. If the first rate byte comes with the highest bit set, the auto transition is immediately started after setting the desired rate. If this bit is zero, only the rate is set. Because only three bytes are used, the range for the rate can be 0-999 frames.
9. Port Protocols GVG-200 Emulation Diamond digital 9.6 SECTION: E-MEM COMMANDS 9.6.1 E-MEM LEARN/RECALL ENABLE COMMAND (D8) Enables or disables the execution of the simulated ”learn E-MEM” and ”recall E-MEM” commands. A set bit enables the execution of these commands, a zero bit disables it. Snapshot learns and recalls are always enabled upon power on.
Diamond digital 9. Port Protocols GVG-200 Emulation The snapshots get special names to distinguish them from manually taken ones, but nevertheless the operator is allowed to manually recall them, to change their names or to overwrite them with new ones. The naming follows this scheme: The first two letters are M1 for ME1 snapshots (EX=01) M2 for ME2 snapshots (EX=02) DB for PP/DSK snapshots (EX=00) UP for ”user program” (OTHER) snapshots (EX=08).
9. Port Protocols GVG-200 Emulation 9.6.3 Diamond digital RECALL E-MEM COMMAND (DB) This write only command enables the user to recall snapshots stored with the LEARN E-MEM command as well as manually taken snapshots. For E-MEM 0-29, the snapshots within the menus EXTRA 2 to EXTRA 9 (EXTRA 1) as described above, are used for recall. If a sequence has been stored meanwhile onto the place where the edit interface assumes the snapshot to be recalled, the execution of this command fails.
