LV5900A
Waveform Monitor8K | 4K | 12G-SDI | 3G-SDI | HD-SDI | HDR
Compact instrument specifically designed for SDI video signals
Compact Waveform Monitor without sacrificing performance, supporting SDI signals up to 12G rates.
The LV5900A waveform monitor supports SMPTE ST 2082-12, which is used to receive 7680 (8192)×4320/59.94P YCBCR 10- bit 8K video via 12G-SDI QUAD LINK. As it supports not only 8K but also a 4K input and four simultaneous HD inputs, you can use it as a high-end 8K system and switch between other systems as needed. The waveform, vector, picture, and eye pattern displays allow for the measurement and quality control of various video signals. The status display allows you to view various error statuses and check on system stability by viewing event logs and long-term charts.
KEY FEATURES
2K/4K/8K Video Formats
Video formats support includes SDI signals in various formats ranging from, 8K video format with quad link of 12G-SDI, 4K video format with the single link of 12G-SDI, dual link of 6G-SDI, quad link of 3G-SDI and quad link of HD-SDI, in addition to the single link of HD-SDI and 3G-SDI.
8K Square Division
The LV5900A also supports 8K divided into 4K sized squares. While the 8K square division system is not included in the television signal standard, it is a system used when existing 4K equipment is repurposed to partially process the video signal in each area.
Customisable Layout
Various items such as video signal waveforms, vector waveforms, and pictures of input signals can be laid out in any position with your favorite size.
HDR Monitoring
In addition to HLG and PQ provided by ITU-R BT.2100, the level monitoring of the HDR signal corresponding to S-log3 and the level management at the assumed luminance (Nits) in a display considering OOTF are possible.
The video signal waveform displays HDR scale along with the IRE scale. In the cine zone display, the luminance distribution of the HDR area can be easily confirmed by displaying the SDR area in monochrome, and the HDR with a color according to the brightness.
Eye Pattern Display
Both eye-pattern and jitter displays are available for SDI signals covering from HD-SDI through 12G-SDI. The LV5900A automatically calculates key eye measurement values. Furthermore, a histogram can be superimposed on the eye pattern display for more detailed physical layer evaluation.
Focus Assist
This is a focus detection function realizing a new algorithm based on nonlinear super resolution technology. The focus details can be detected with high sensitivity even with low-contrast images, which were conventionally difficult to detect. In addition, sensitivity can be selected from 5 levels according to the video scene.
