Chapter 1: Introduction
Overview
Featuring a flexible, “anything-in, anything-out” architecture, the dual-processor FS2
Universal Video/Audio Frame Synchronizer and Format Converter simultaneously works
with two independent channels of 10-bit broadcast quality video and two independent
groups of 16-channel audio.
The FS2 can be used as two separate Frame Synchronizers/Format Converters, or the two
channels can be combined in many powerful ways—for example, sidebar keying where
both the video and background graphics can be upconverted and combined.
The FS2 supports analog and digital I/O, with full input and output crosspoint matrices,
allowing any I/O port to be assigned to either processor. With support of all broadcast
video formats, the FS2 makes matching up disparate video and audio systems simple—
one converter box does it all.
Video Features • The FS2 handles a wide variety of video formats. See "Appendix A: Specifications on page
104" for a complete list.
• Dual video format converters, each featuring SD/HD (up/down), SD-to-SD (aspect
ratio), and HD-to-HD (720/1080 cross) conversions.
• Dual video processors supporting proc amp and color correction.
• Dual frame synchronizers.
• Dual video/key framestores downloadable from the local area network.
• User-specified custom format conversion and scaling with variable crop, size, aspect,
position, and Region of Interest parameters.
• Dual flexible keyers for video/key overlays or sidebar keying from the two video
processors, the two internal video/key framestores, or internal matte generators.
• Closed captioning support, featuring true conversion between EIA 608 and 708 (SD and
HD) CC formats.
• Active Format Description (AFD) support.
• Scan convert computer formats via a DVI-to-HDMI cable
• Dual 3G/HD/SD SDI I/O with embedded audio.
• Dual 3G/HD/SD Optical Fiber I/O (optional).

• HDMI I/O supporting 3D HDMI output.
• Component/Composite analog HD/SD video I/O, 12-bit.
• Looping reference input with flexible genlock.
3G Support The FS2 supports several types of 3G video (and some associated embedded audio):
• 1080p59.94/1080p50 in both SMPTE level A or level B
• Muxed 3G Video: two separate 720p/1080i video signals muxed into one 3G level B
signal
• Dual-Link Video in the form of 1080p59.94/1080p50 video on two 1.5G SDI cables.
In the case of Dual Link Video, the FS2 input processing can demux the two signals and
send them (each with their associated 16-channel audio) to the two processors. For
output, the FS2 can mux together the two video signals (and their audio) from the two
processors into a Dual Stream 3G video output.
Control of 3G functionality can be set to automatic (using ANC data format ID), or with
full manual control via the user interface.
Audio Features • Dual audio processors, each supporting 16-channel audio with full channel mapping.
• 16-channel AES/EBU, 8-channel balanced analog I/O.
• 16-channel embedded audio I/O with full mapping.
• AFV (audio follows video) support.
Other Features • Built-in front panel control via scrolling alphanumeric and graphical menu.
• Front panel LED status indicators for at-a-glance system monitoring.
• Linux operating system supporting full network compatibility, including Web-based
remote control over 10/100/1000 Ethernet via an internal web server.
• Two fully redundant power supplies standard.
• Five-year international warranty with unlimited technical support.
Typical Applications The FS2 can be used in a very wide variety of video and audio signal conversion,
adaptation, timing, and processing applications:
• Up/down/cross conversion between many SD and HD formats, including 1080p50/60.
• General purpose video frame synchronization.
• Analog-to-Digital and Digital-to-Analog audio/video conversion.
• Mux or Demux two separate HD signals from one 3G SDI signal.
• Convert 3G/HD/SD video over fiber to/from SDI (BNC).
• Use the built-in video processing amplifiers to adjust and/or color correct.
• Synchronize the timing of key and fill signals by putting both through the parallel FS2
video processors and adjusting their timing independently. Then key them using one
of the two FS2 keyers or an external keyer.
• Use the HDMI input and a DVI-to-HDMI cable to scan-convert popular computer video
formats to SD or HD, including full proc-amp functionality and aspect ratio adjustment.
• HD sidebar keying including using both SD video and SD sidebar graphics (analog or
digital), upconverting both, and combining—all in the FS2.

FS2 Control
FS2 operation can be monitored and changed in a number of ways. Feature sets in each
of the control methods vary, although the front panel and web browser interfaces offer
many of the same features.
Front Panel Control The FS2 front panel offers the most direct control, ideal for use in machine rooms or
wherever quick changes and status checks must be made. The buttons and knobs
control menus in the display, allowing you to fully configure the system according to
your purposes. You can control inputs, outputs, processing paths, keying, and much
more.
Remote Web
Browser Control
The FS2 internally contains an optimized web server that allows remote monitoring and
parameter setting via an Ethernet 10/100/1000 network-attached computer running a
web-browser. Networks can be closed local area networks, a straight computer-to-FS2
cable, or for greatest flexibility, exposed through a firewall to a broadband WAN. From a
network-connected computer you can communicate with one or more FS2 devices, even
getting them to identify themselves via LEDs on the front and rear panel.
GPI Inputs and
Outputs
General Purpose Inputs and Outputs are available on the FS2 back panel to provide
contact closure control. Using the inputs, an external contact closure activates a specified
function on the FS2. Using the outputs, specific FS2 functions can produce a contact
closure to activate any desired function on external equipment. The functions to be
activated by an input or that can activate an output are set using the front panel and
browser menus.
SNMP Interface
Monitoring
SNMP offers remote network monitoring of alarm conditions.
Optional FS2 Features
Fiber I/O The FS2 supports optional AJA Optical Fiber I/O modules as follows:
• Single Input, LC connector
• Single Input SC connector
• Single Output LC connector
•SingleOutputSCconnector
•DualInputLCconnectors
• Dual Output LC connectors
FS2's Fiber I/O supports the 3G/HD/SD SDI protocol. Only AJA modules are supported;
use of other manufacturers' modules is not supported and may void the warranty.
Dolby E Decoder
Card
The current FS2 software supports a Dolby E Decoder option in the right-hand option

Up, down, or cross conversion is done with very high quality scalers. De-interlacing is
performed with high quality motion-adaptive processing including diagonal filters. The
Processing Amplifier and Color Correctors support video signal adjustment with
standard Proc Amp controls and RGB-style color correction.
The keyers in each video processor can operate in several modes:
• Add a background for HD sidebar upconversion. The background can be Black, a user-
configurable matte, video from the other video processor (which itself can be
upconverted), or a video still (future firmware release) from the internal stillstore.
• Add a video/key graphic from the internal graphic stillstore (future firmware release)
• Combine the two video processors in various ways, such as creating a live “over-the-
shoulder” key.
The Video Processors can also be used as a still store and output full screen stills or test
patterns.
Audio Processors The two audio processors accept analog, digital, or embedded audio inputs as chosen by
the input crosspoint matrix. Inputs can be selected from Embedded (SDI, Fiber, or HDMI),
AES, or Balanced Analog and full channel mapping supports any mixture of the inputs.
Each audio processor processes and outputs 16 channels. The output of each processor
can be embedded in its respective Video processor output (SDI, Fiber, or HDMI), or sent
to the AES or Balanced outputs. For 3G and Dual link Inputs, the Audio processors can
have access to all 32 channels.

Chapter 2: Controls, Indicators, and
Connections
Control and Indicator Descriptions
The controls, indicators, and connectors illustrated and described in this chapter allow
you to connect, operate, and monitor the FS2 system and to troubleshoot problems if
you encounter them. Becoming familiar with the FS2 front and rear panels also simplifies
system installation, setup, and operation.
Additional control, indicator, and connector details follow in these chapters:
• Full installation instructions are provided in Chapter 3.
• Detailed menu descriptions are presented in Chapter 4.
• The web browser user interface is described in Chapter 5.
NOTE: The AJA FS2 should be plugged into 3-wire 100-240 VAC 50/60 Hz power (autosensing) before
you make connections to other equipment. The AC cords provide a path to ground for
accidental static discharge to protect system equipment. The FS2 has two fully independent
and redundant power supplies and will operate with one or both AC power cords plugged
into the unit. However, fault-tolerance exists only if both power supplies are connected and
plugged into separate branch circuits. Then if power is lost on a branch or one of the supplies,
the FS2 will continue to operate on the remaining circuit and power supply.
Front Panel Description
The following topics present an overview of front panel controls and indicators to help
you get familiar with operating the FS2. For details about using the controls with
particular menus, please see Chapter 4: Menus.
Warning!
To meet safety regulations for leakage current and to ensure redundancy in the event
that a branch circuit breaker shuts off a branch, connect the FS2 dual power supplies
to separate branch circuits.

Figure 2. AJA FS2 Front Panel Controls and Indicators
Alphanumeric
Display
The FS2's control system is designed to be quick and easy to use. The four-line
alphanumeric display shows menus that are numbered and grouped by function. The
menu groups are easily accessed using pushbuttons which correspond one-to-one with
the groups (one button per menu group). The menu lines, which are 23 characters wide,
display the following information:
•First line—parameter number and name.
•Second line—the editable value set for a parameter.
•Third and fourth lines—current status, labels, or prompts.
When you edit a parameter containing multiple values, such as the IP address, the value
currently being edited blinks.
Operational Summary The 10 front panel pushbuttons allow you to select display menu groups. The two knobs
allow you to change menus and set parameters within the menu groups. These functions
can be summarized as follows:
• Select a menu group: Press one of the ten pushbuttons.
• Scroll through menus in a group: Turn SELECT.
• Edit a menu parameter: Stop SELECT on the menu.
• Change a parameter value: Once the parameter is selected with SELECT, turn ADJUST to
set the value. Changes apply in a few seconds.
• To edit a multiple part parameter, such as the IP address, push the ADJUST knob
momentarily (the value blinks). To save the whole parameter after editing, push
ADJUST momentarily again.
• Coarse adjust a value: Hold down the menu group button (the button turns blue) and
turn ADJUST.
• Undo a change (restore previous setting): Push SELECT momentarily.
• Reset to factory default: Hold down ADJUST for 4 seconds.
Pushbuttons These are the general rules of Menu Group button operation:
• Press one of the ten Menu Group buttons to access the associated menu group. The
SELECT and ADJUST knobs control the display menus.
• The selected Menu Group button lights and the other buttons turn off.
• Each menu group returns to the last menu changed when you select the button. After a
reboot, each group displays its first menu.
