capture the screen. The DISP button is high tally when a frame is captured. Only one
captured frame can be cached in the unit at a time. The frame will remain cached until
the frame is cleared. Once the frame is frozen and the DISP button is high tally, press
the DISP button to toggle between the captured frame and the live frame.
Clear Captured Frame
While a live screen is shown, press and hold the DISP button to access the DISP menu.
The DISP menu contains the CLEAR XGA CAPTURE menu. Select CLEAR XGA
CAPTURE and press the ENT button to clear the frozen frame in the pane. Once the
frozen frame is cleared from the pane, a new frame capture can be performed.
Capturing Display Information
The VTM Series is capable of holding frame-captured information. If no
data has been captured, press the SDI button to capture the data in that pane.
The SDI button is high tally when information is captured. Only one capture can be
cached in the unit at a time. The data will remain cached until the data is cleared.
Once the data is frozen and the SDI button is high tally, press the SDI button to toggle
between displaying the captured data and the live data.
When selecting a different pane, the SDI button will change according to the current
configuration of that pane (i.e. if the captured data in the cache is displayed or not
displayed). When returning to a pane that already contains and displays the cached
captured data, the SDI button reaches a high-tally state.
When MULTI mode DATA ANALYZER display is selected, the SDI button selection
affects all the panes on the display.
Press and hold the SDI button to access the SDI menu. The SDI menu consists of the
Clear Capture and Freeze mode menu items.
SDI is deselected if the SDI button is pressed, the input changes, or a format changes
for the selected input signal. A FORMAT MISMATCH error occurs when the
currently selected format for the pane is different than the format of the frozen data in
the cache. SDI capture cannot be performed when an audio pane is the active pane.
Clear Captured Data
Press and hold the SDI button to access the SDI menu. The SDI menu contains the
CLEAR SDI CAPTURE menu. Select CLEAR SDI CAPTURE and press the ENT
button to clear the frozen information in the pane. Once the frozen data is cleared from
the pane, a new data capture can be performed.
Freeze and Freeze + Live Mode
Freeze mode contains two selections: Freeze and Freeze + Live. Selecting Freeze
mode will separate the frozen display from the live display. When SDI is high tally,
data that was captured in the cache is displayed. When the SDI button is low tally, the
Live data is displayed.
Freeze + Live is selected to show live display overlaying the captured display.
