Overview
Configuration and Operation
This chapter describes how to operate the HUC6801+D using card-edge controls or CCS-enabled software and hardware controls. The following topics are discussed in this chapter: Operating Notes on page 11 Changing Parameter Settings on page 12 Configuring Video Input Settings on page 14 Configuring Video Input Settings on page 14 Configuring Aspect Ratio Conversion on page 19 Configuring Audio on page 23
Operating Notes
When setting the control parameters on the HUC6801+D, observe the following: If you make changes to certain parameters, other related parameters may also be affected. When you change a parameter, the effect is immediate. However, the module requires up to 20 seconds to save the latest change. After 20 seconds, the new settings are saved and will be restored if the module loses power and must be restarted. For proper operation, the output HD standard frame rate should match or double the reference standard frame rate. The manufacturer recommends that you terminate any unused coaxial output connectors with a 75- connector.
Re-clocking SD-HD Signals

In a normal upconversion operation, the HUC6801+D module conform to all specifications set out in this manual. However, if you use re-lock output 1 (labeled RCLK SD/HD OUT 1) to re-lock an HD-SDI signal (which puts the module into Bypass mode), the Return Loss specification is typically 12 dB to 1.485 GHz.

Chapter 3 Configuration and Operation
Q-SEE Compliant Thumbnails

The HUC6801+D supports Q-SEE compliant thumbnails. To use Q-SEE compliant features, you must install the modules in an FR6822+QXFE frame or an FR6802+QXF frame that also contains a 6800+ETH module. When you open a Control window in CCS Pilot or Navigator for the 6800+ETH module, all Q-SEE compliant modules provide thumbnails on a Video Streaming tab. In addition, the HUC6801+D module Control windows have a Streaming tab where a thumbnail is displayed and updated at up to three frames per second. Q-SEE-compliant thumbnails are available for all inputs, but only one can be viewed at a time. The following standards are supported: SD-SDI 525 SD-SDI 625 1080i/29 1080i/25 1080p/23 720p/59 720p/50 Note: For more information on Q-SEE compliant thumbnails, see your FR6802+QXF or FR6822+QXFE Frames Installation and Operation Manual.

Configuring Video Input Settings

The following section provides information about configuring the HUC6801+D video input settings including the following: Selecting Video Input and Output Standards on page 14 Selecting Video Input and Output Standards on page 14 Bypass Mode on page 16 Synchronization and Delay on page 17
Selecting Video Input and Output Standards

There are three options that you can use to select your modules video input standard: Auto, 525, or 625. The parameter option you select for your video input also affects the available options for your upconverted video output. Note: In the section below, the term frame rate compatible is used to describe frame rates that are the same or exactly double. Each Input Video Standard parameter option is described below: Auto With this option selected, the HUC6801+D automatically detects the video standard of incoming video. Only HD standards that are frame rate compatible with the detected input standard are available as Output Video Standard parameter options. If an HD video format is detected, the module is set to Bypass mode. 525 With this option selected, the HUC6801+D only accepts 525-based video inputs (29.97 fps standard) for upconversion. Only frame rate compatible HD standards are available as Output Video Standard parameter options. If a non-525-based standard is detected at the input, the video output is handled according to the Loss of Video Output parameter option. 625 With this option selected, the HUC6801+D only accepts 625-based video inputs (25 fps standards) for upconversion. Only frame rate compatible HD standards are available as Output Video Standard parameter options. If a non-625-based standard is detected at the input, the video is handled according to the Loss of Video Output parameter option. Note: If you select a non-frame rate compliant standard, the OSD will disappear. If this occurs, use the Factory Recall parameter and then regain use of the OSD. This will take several seconds.

Bypass Mode
When an HD-SDI signal is input to the HUC6801+D, the module detects that no upconversion processing on the input is required. Therefore, the module operates in Bypass mode, which means that the modules input signal bypasses the upconverter and is output to the program and monitoring outputs unprocessed. If On-Screen Display (OSD) monitoring is enabled, the OSD will be present in HD Prog/Mon Output 1 and HD Prog/Mon Output 2. For information about the OSD monitoring feature, see Enabling On-Screen Display on page 13. When the module is operating in Bypass mode, many parameters are disabled. See Table 3-2 for a list of parameters that are disabled when the module is operating in Bypass mode.

Synchronization and Delay

Before upconversion, the SD-SDI input signal is processed by the modules frame synchronizer. The frame synchronizer automatically detects and locks to the genlock reference signal for video timing alignment. The frame synchronizer either drops or repeats video frames to achieve synchronization. During upconversion, delay is added to the SDI input signal in the main video processing path. The amount of delay to the primary signal is dependent upon the type of processing applied to it. To compensate for delays from external, upstream processes, you can use the Input Frame Delay parameter to add processing delay. The Input Frame Delay parameter provides a delay range between 0 to 6 frames in one-frame increments. Table 3-3 lists the video propagation delays through the video synchronizer and converter blocks of the HUC6801+. Table 3-3 Video Propagation Delays for Upconversion Input SD-525 SD-525 SD-625 SD-625 Output 1080i_59.94 720p_59.94 1080i_50 720p_50 Frame Sync 0~1 I-frame 0~1 I-frame 0~1 I-frame 0~1 I-frame User-Defined Input Frame Delay 0~6 I-frames 0~6 I-frames 0~6 I-frames 0~6 I-frames Upconvert 1 I-frame 2 P-frame 1 I-frame 2 P-frame HD User Output Delay 0~1 I-frame 0~1 P-frame 0~1 I-frame 0~1 P-fame
18
Audio Synchronization and Delay

Audio is synchronized to video by applying the same frame sync delay and converter delay to the audio associated with that video path. By changing the Input Frame Delay control, you can adjust the frame sync delay and trigger the audio to re-synchronize with the video. The audio synchronization will not occur immediately and will take roughly 10 seconds per frame of delay in order to prevent any audio glitch. You can add additional delay using the Audio Pair 1 Delay to Audio Pair 4 Delay parameters. For information about setting additional audio delay, see Setting Audio Pair Delay on page 26. The user delay is always applied in addition to the audio synchronization and will cause an audio glitch to occur when the user delay changes.
Configuring Input Reference Source and Input Frame Delay

To configure your input reference source and input frame delay, make the following selections: Setting Description Select the genlock source. (When the video input source is HD-SDI, this parameter defaults to Delay, because there is no external/ frame reference for the HD signal as it bypasses the processor.) Select the video standard of the genlock source. (The applicable 525 or 625 options are displayed in the OSD. If the standard is mismatched with the genlock source, the Reference LED will light.)

Input Input Frame Delay [1, 3] 06 (frames)
Setting Motion Threshold Mode

You can use Motion Threshold mode to set how the HUC6801+ determines the difference between motion in the input video image and signal noise. When Motion Threshold is set to Auto, the module sets the threshold value to an optimal level. When set to Manual, you can use the Motion Threshold control to set the threshold value between 1 and 16, where 16 is used for images with high noise levels.

Configuring Aspect Ratio Conversion

The HUC6801+ can output either standard or custom aspect ratio conversions (ARCs). Using the ARC Preset Select parameter, you can select from one of the following standard aspect ratios: 16:9 Anamorphic 16:9 Cut 14:9 4:3 Pixel True (1:1 pixel to pixel mapping) You can use the modules custom ARC control parameters to create a custom output aspect ratio that can be saved as an ARC Preset. Saved custom ARC Presets are listed as an ARC Preset Select parameter option with the modules list of standard ARC settings. For information about creating a custom ARC preset, see Creating a Custom Aspect Ratio on page 21. See Figure 3-2 on page 20 for a graphic illustration of the standard aspect ratios.

Recalling Standard and Custom ARC Presets
You can use the ARC Preset Recall parameter to recall and view standard and custom ARC preset settings without changing the output image. The ARC Preset Recall parameter will overwrite the following custom aspect ratio parameters: ARC H Scale, ARC V Scale, ARC H Offset, and ARC V Offset. If you perform an aspect ratio recall when ARC Preset Select is set to Custom, the output image aspect ratio will revert to the recalled aspect ratio. To recall a standard or custom ARC preset, make the following selections:

Overscan Mode
You can use Overscan mode to select and discard a specified number of lines and columns of pixels around the borders of the input image before upconversion. Enabling Overscan mode prevents embedded data in the active picture region, such as closed captioning, from being upconverted. The active picture region for 525 standard starts on line 21 and ends at line 262. Therefore, an overscan setting of 1 line implies that upconversion starts at line 22 and ends at line 261. In addition to the two discarded lines, the first and last pixel of each remaining line in the active picture region are discarded. Before setting Overscan mode, you can determine if closed captioning is present in the input video by viewing the Input CC Present feedback parameter. You can then select the lines of video you want Overscan mode to discard. To set up Overscan mode, make the following selections:
Setting Description Determine if closed captioning is present in the input video. Set the lines for Overscan mode.

Setting Output Video Phasing
Using the output video phasing parameters, you can adjust the horizontal and vertical phasing values of your output HD video. The range of the values that you can use for phase adjustment depends on your output video standard. Table 3-5 lists the horizontal and vertical phasing for each output video standard.

Configuring Audio
The HUC6801+D can detect up to four embedded audio groups (eight uncompressed or compressed audio channel pairs) that are present in the input SDI video stream. You can then select up four input audio channel pairs and embed them as two audio groups in the SDI output video stream. Using the HUC6801+D audio control parameters you can perform the following audio input and output operations: Select detected input audio groups/pairs to demux Select audio groups/pairs to re-embed in the SDI output Set audio delay on each output audio channel pair (uncompressed sources only) Set audio gain on each output audio channel pair (uncompressed sources only) Set audio bypass on each output audio channel pair for compressed audio source Mute all output audio
Demuxing Input Audio Groups/Pairs
When the HUC6801+D detects embedded audio in the SDI input video stream, it displays the number of audio groups present (up to four) and whether or not the audio present in each audio channel pair is compressed or uncompressed.
24
The Audio Group Present feedback parameter indicates whether an audio group is present by assigning it a number. For example, 1 indicates the presence of audio group 1, and 2 indicates the presence of audio group 2. If an audio group is not present in the input, double dashed lines (=) represent the missing audio group. Table 3-6 provides examples of Audio Group Present parameter feedback. Table 3-6 Audio Group Present Feedback Examples Parameter Feedback 1234 ==== 1 2= 4 Meaning All four audio groups are present. No audio groups are present. Audio groups 1, 2, and 4 are present. Audio group 3 is not present.

Bypassing Source Audio

If you are embedding compressed audio channel pairs, you can set the Audio Master Bypass parameter so that these audio sources bypass the modules audio processors and audio synchronizer. The HUC6801+D can detect automatically, by means of the channel status bit (C-bit), the presence of non-PCM audio signals such as Dolby E. Upon detection of non-PCM data in Auto mode, the audio synchronizer and processor blocks are bypassed in order to maintain the integrity of the audio stream. To set the audio bypass parameters, make the following selections: Setting Description Enable Audio Bypass. If you selected On for the Audio Bypass parameter, you can select the audio pairs you want bypassed. Display the bypass status of the audio channel pairs. Bypassed channels are indicated by a b.

The HUC6801+D module does not have any card-edge alarms. Instead, module status LEDs on the corner of the module light up if an error is detected. See Figure 4-1 on page 38 for the location of these LEDs, and Table 4-5 for a definition of the LED colors. Alarms are usually logged and monitored within software control applications such as + PilotLite or CCS Pilot. See the appropriate software control user manual or online help for more information. Table 4-5 LED Color and Meaning LED Color Sequence Off Green Red Flashing Red Amber Meaning There is no power to the module; the module is not operational. There is power to the module; the module is operating properly. There is an alarm condition. The module has detected a hardware/firmware fault. The module is undergoing configuration.

Communication and Control Troubleshooting Tips
Find the following troubleshooting information in this appendix: Software Communication Problems on page 45 Hardware Communication Problems on page 47
Software Communication Problems

The frame is powered up, but the module does not communicate with + Pilot Lite or CCS Pilot/Navigator. Solutions
Ensure you have specified the proper module slot. See your frame Installation and Operation Manual for more information about slot identification. Verify whether you need an ICE6800+ or 6800+ETH module installed in the frame (not required for FR6822+). FR6802+ frames only use ICE6800+ modules to communicate with CCS software and hardware. FR6802+QXF frames use ICE6800+ or 6800+ETH modules to communicate with CCS software and hardware. Remove any legacy 6800 series product that is in the frame. + Pilot Lite and CCS software cannot communicate with legacy 6800 series products, even though these modules may operate with card-edge controls in a newer frame. Legacy 6800 products do not have the + symbol on their extractor handles. Check for bent pins on the back module by following this procedure: a b c Unplug the front module. Unscrew and remove the back module. Inspect the 20- or 30-pin spring connector at the bottom of the back module (Figure A-1 on page 46), and verify that the connector does not have any slightly bent or pressed pins. Carefully reposition any bent pins; If this is not possible, contact Customer Support.

Appendix A Communication and Control Troubleshooting Tips
Figure A-1 Typical Back Module Spring Connector
The frame is powered up, but + Pilot Lite does not communicate with the module. Solutions
Ensure you have installed the correct cables between the PC and the frame: A null modem serial cable must be used between a PC and an FR6802+ frame (not a straight-through cable). At minimum, this requires that pins 2 and 3 are crossed, but pin 5 (ground) is straight-through to pin 5. A USB cable must be used between a PC and an FR6802+QXF frame. Verify whether you need an ICE6800+ or 6800+ETH module installed in the frame. + Pilot Lite control is disabled if an ICE6800+ or 6800+ETH control module is installed in a frame. Set the Frame ID DIP switch settings correctly (the Frame ID DIP switch is located at the rear of the frame.) If only one frame is connected, set the DIP switch to 00. If multiple frames are used in a daisy-chain, set the DIP switch numbers consecutively to the following: 00 (frame 1) 01 (frame 2) 10 (frame 3 11 (frame 4) See your frame Installation and Operation Manual for more information about frame ID switch settings. Check that the correct COM port is configured in + Pilot Lite and that another application is not using that COM port.
47
+ Pilot Lite and CCS software see the frame, but do not find all of the modules Solutions
Remove any legacy 6800 series products. Plug your modules in before starting the discovery. Start your discovery after the frame and all modules have fully powered up. Refresh + Pilot Lite (File > Refresh), and ensure that the installed modules are fully powered up first before discovery.
+ Pilot Lite and CCS Pilot/Navigator do not respond after they have been launched. Solution
Close either + Pilot Lite or CCS Pilot/Navigator. Both programs cannot be running at the same time on the same PC.
+ Pilot Lite and CCS software show a module in the control window, but cannot control it. Solution
1 2 3 4 Set the modules Local/Remote jumper to Remote. Ensure the module name in the Control window matches the module type in the frame. Gently push the module into its slot in the frame to ensure it is seated properly and powered up. Verify that the Control window indicates the device is ready.
Hardware Communication Problems

After a power failure, the frames and PC do not communicate. Solution
1 2 3 Wait four minutes for the frames to recover from the power failure. Close the + Pilot Lite or CCS software, and then restart the PC. Restart the software application.

Appendix A Communication and Control Troubleshooting Tips
The module does not seem to work. Solutions

Ensure the correct frame is powered up. Verify that all appropriate rear connections are secure. Gently push the module into its slot in the frame to ensure it is seated properly. Ensure the back module does not have bent pins by following this procedure: a b c d Unplug the front module. Unscrew and remove the back module. Inspect the spring connector at the bottom of the back module (Figure A-1), and verify the connector does not have any slightly bent or pressed pins. Carefully reposition any bent pins; if this is not possible, contact Customer Support.
