SDI Status indication section
Lock status indicator
The Lock status field shows the top-level lock
status of an incoming SDI stream.
►
When Loudness Pilot is locked to an accept-
able SDI stream on the SDI input, “Lock” is
shown.
►
When no acceptable SDI stream is available
on the SDI input, “No Lock” and a red LED
will be shown in this field.
Format indicator
When the Loudness Pilot is locking to an incom-
ing SDI stream, the Format indicator field will
show the format – e.g. “1080i59.94 HD”. If the
Loudness Pilot is not locking to any incoming
SDI stream, the Format indicator field will read
“N/A”.
Available Groups indicators
SDI with embedded audio carries up to 16 chan-
nels of audio, divided into four groups. Accord-
ingly, each group carries four channels of audio.
The four Available Groups indicators show which
audio groups are available in the incoming SDI
stream for metering and processing. The on-
screen LED for each available group will light up
in green. If the Loudness Pilot is not locking to
an incoming SDI stream, all indicators are turned
off.
Audio (In) Groups selector
Settings: “Groups1+2”/“Groups3+4”/“Groups
1+3”/“Groups1+4”/“Groups2+3”/“Groups2+4”
Use the Audio Groups selector to select audio
groups for metering and processing.
! Please note that Loudness Pilot always re-
ceives two of the audio groups in the incom-
ing stream. The unprocessed audio groups
are bypassed bit-transparently, as well as all
related SDI packets such as video time code,
close captions etc.
