Introduction 1 Introduction Welcome to Kramer Electronics! Since 1981, Kramer Electronics has been providing a world of unique, creative, and affordable solutions to the vast range of problems that confront the video, audio, presentation, and broadcasting professional on a daily basis. In recent years, we have redesigned and upgraded most of our line, making the best even better! Our 1,000-plus different models now appear in 11 groups 1 that are clearly defined by function.
Getting Started 2.1 Quick Start This quick start chart summarizes the basic setup and operation steps.
Overview 3 Overview The unique SP-10D is a multi-standard/multi-format broadcast quality video processor – ProcAmp, TBC, format converter (for mixing different types of equipment), and standards converter. It is a universal single-box solution for all your video processing requirements.
Your SP-10D Digital Video Processor To achieve the best performance: • Connect only good quality connection cables, thus avoiding interference, deterioration in signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise levels (often associated with low quality cables) • Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances that may adversely influence signal quality and position your Kramer SP-10D away from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust 4 Your SP-10D Digital Video Processor Figure 1, Table 1, a

Installing the SP-10D in a Rack 5 Installing the SP-10D in a Rack This section provides instructions for rack mounting the 1U unit.
Connecting Your SP-10D Digital Video Processor 6 Connecting Your SP-10D Digital Video Processor You can use your SP-10D to convert composite video, s-Video, or component video (YUV or RGB/S) signals to composite video, s-Video, and 1 component video (YUV, RGsB, RGBS, RGBHV). The processing can be evaluated on a “Before/after” split-screen. To connect the SP-10D Digital Video Processor, do the following 2: 1.
Connecting Your SP-10D Digital Video Processor Figure 2: Connecting the SP-10D Digital Video Processor 6.1 Connecting a PC You can connect to the unit via a crossed RS-232 connection, using for example, a PC. A crossed cable or null-modem is required as shown in method A and B respectively. If a shielded cable is used, connect the shield to pin 5.
Connecting Your SP-10D Digital Video Processor Hardware flow control is not required for this unit. In the rare case where a controller requires hardware flow control, short pin 1 to 7 and 8, and pin 4 to 6 on the controller side. Method B (Figure 4)—Connect the RS-232 9-pin D-sub port on the unit via a straight (flat) cable to the null-modem adapter, and connect the nullmodem adapter to the RS-232 9-pin D-sub port on the PC.

Operating the SP-10D Digital Video Processor 6. Press the STORE button once. For 5 seconds no output video signal is available, and “rL” is displayed in the 7-segment display, indicating that the SP-10D is reloading. After the reloading, the standard of the output video signal changes as well as that of the “Before/after” split-screen. 7. Press the GENLOCK button to enable the genlock function.
Operating the SP-10D Digital Video Processor • Store the result of the adjustment in another setup #, press the STORE button once, select a setup # between 1 and 16 by pressing the + and – buttons, and then press the STORE button once again If the adjustment is set such that the level setting is at its normal level (“NORM”), the appropriate button no longer illuminates (otherwise this button continues to illuminate in the main mode). 7.
