Reference Cabling
Figure 20 shows the same system configuration using two switches.
Figure 20. Redundant System Controllers Configured Using Two Switches
Reference Cabling
Analog Color Black (NTSC/PAL) is used as the primary system Video Ref-
erence, and is required for both the controller and the matrices. To allow
time stamped deterministic switching, the Video Reference must contain
an embedded Vertical Interval Time Code (VITC) signal.
The Encore control system switches the matrices at Frame boundaries, not
at Field boundaries (as in the Series 7000 control system). Frame based
switching is required to ensure Dolby E compliance.
The Encore System Controller frame, the DV Series matrices, the 7500 Series
matrices, and the Concerto matrix support multiple independent switch
point reference signals. Multiple reference signals support synchronously
switching groups of sources with different repetition rates (PAL/NTSC) or
offset timing (delay from studios vs. direct feeds).
Reference signals can be routed via loop-thru daisy-chains. In Figure 21
two Video References are routed through the System Controller and on to
