5 Using Your 7508 CV/YC to SDI Converter
You can use your 7508 CV/YC to SDI Converter to convert professional
quality composite video or s-Video (as the example in
Figure 2 illustrates)
to one or two SDI video outputs.
To convert composite video or s-Video to up to 2 SDI video outputs, do the
following
1
1. Connect a composite video source (for example, a VCR) to the CV BNC
INPUT connector.
:
2. Connect an s-Video source (for example, a camera) to the Y/C 4-pin
INPUT connector.
3. Connect both SDI outputs to SDI acceptors as follows (when only one SDI
output is required, use either of the SDI outputs of the 7508, and leave the
other SDI output unconnected):
• Connect the SDI OUT 1 BNC connector to an SDI acceptor
(for example, an SDI monitor)
• Connect the SDI OUT 2 BNC connector to the second SDI
acceptor (for example, an SDI monitor)
4. Set the DIP-switches, as section
5.2 describes
5. Connect the 12V DC power adapter to the power socket and connect the
adapter to the mains electricity.

6. Connect a PC (if required) to the RS-232 port (see section
signal converts to SDI at both SDI OUT
1 and SDI OUT 2.

1 Switch OFF the power on each device before connecting it to your 7508. After connecting your 7508, switch on its power
and then switch on the power on each device
2 To choose the CV input, set the Y/C (DIP 1) OFF
3 To choose the Y/C input, set the Y/C (DIP 1) ON
