GUIDE TO INSTALLATION AND OPERATION
Kaleido-Solo | 17
Scaler
The scaler uses the output resolution and aspect ratio (automatic or forced) to maximize video size.
The input signal is de-interlaced (when input is interlaced) and then scaled for the display.
Scale down the video to a specific image size. 5% will produce a smaller image than 65%.
The incoming video is not rescaled. If it is smaller than the display, it will appear centered within the
display. If it is larger than the display, the video will be centered but cropped so that only a part of it is
shown. In this mode the video will not react to the aspect ratio configuration.
Picture anchor
When the scaler is not in Auto or Off you can select up to 9 pre-configured video position.
Picture offset
When the scaler is not in Auto or Off you can fine tune the video horizontal and vertical position.
Dynamic Range
SDI video has a dynamic range from 16 for black to 235 for white. Dynamic range expansion broadens the range to
the full gamut of 0 to 255 that is available in an 8-bit system.
Use the full dynamic range of 0 to 255 for the displayed video by expanding the input video data
(video processing implied). Video values lower than 16 will be clipped to 0.
Display the video using the standard dynamic range of 16 to 235. Video values lower than 16 will be
displayed properly.
50Hz i/PsF
When the input signal is 1080i 50 Hz, it is not possible to automatically detect whether the video is 25 Hz PsF video or
50 Hz interlaced. If PsF is known to be present it must be manually selected, so that the Kaleido-Solo can properly
process the video image (de-interlacing for interlaced video; field-merging for PsF video).
Use when the input video is in interlaced format. The video will be de-interlaced.
Use when the input video is in PsF format. The video will be field-merged.
Test Pattern
The user can replace the displayed video with a test signal (a valid video input must be present).
Select from these choices:
The input video appears at the output.
Sends a 75% color bar test pattern (100% white), along with audio test tones (a continuous tone on
right channel with pulsed tone on left channel in every pair) to the Kaleido-Solo output.
