Precautions
Important Safety Warnings
[Power]
Do not place or drop heavyor sharp-edged objects on power cord. A damaged cord
can cause fire or electrical shock hazards.
Regularly check power cord for
excessive wear or damage to avoid possible fire / electrical hazards.
[Circuitry Access]
Do not touch any parts / circuitry with a high heat factor.
Capacitors can retain enough electric charge to cause mild to serious shock, even
after power is disconnected. Capacitors associated with the power supply are
especially hazardous. Avoid contact with any capacitors.
Unit should not be operated or stored with cover, panels, and / or casing removed.
Operating unit with circuitry exposed could result in electric shock / fire hazards or
unit malfunction.
[Potential Hazards]
If abnormal sme
lls or noises are noticed coming from the unit, turn power off
immediately and disconnect power cord to avoid potentially hazardous conditions. If
problems similar to above occur, contact authorized service representative before
attempting to again operate unit.
[Consumables]
The consumables used in unit must be replaced periodically. For further details on
which parts are consumables and when they should be replaced, refer to the
specifications at the end of the Operation Manual. Since the service life of the
consumables varies greatly depending on the environment in which they are used,
they should be replaced at an early date. For details on replacing the consumables,
contact your dealer.

Turn off the power of all devices in the system before connection.
IMPORTANT
Although two video inputs are provided, only one input can be processed through the
UFM-30UDC.
The processed video is sim
ultaneously sent to four ports; SDI1, SDI2, SDI MONITOR
and OSD OUT.
With BB input, the UFM-30UDC gen-
locks signals horizontally (H lock), but does not
correct subcarrier phase shifts. (See section 7-3. "Output menu .")

3-2. Note on Composite Input
When the NTSC composite signal is input, the setup level should be set manually in the menu.
The factory default setting is Off (0IRE). See section 4-2. "Menu Operation" for how to change
menu items.
NTSC setup level Menu item Setting
0IRE (used in Japan) Input - NTSC setup Off (default setting)
7.5IRE (used in USA) Input - NTSC setup On
3-3. Composite Monitor Setup
Prepare an NTSC or PAL monitor for displaying menu. Select NTSC or PAL according to the
input signal that you want to process.
Monitor Input signal
NTSC monitor Video signals at 59.94Hz frame rate:
(NTSC, 525/59.94i, 720/59.94p, 1080/59.94i and 1080/59.94p)
PAL monitor Video signals at 50Hz frame rate:
(PAL, 625/50i, 720/50p, 1080/50i and 1080/50p)
Connect the monitor to the OSD OUT on the UFM-30UDC rear panel. If NTSC monitor is used,
set the setup level. The default setting in the UFM-30UDC is 7.5 IRE.
If using an NTSC Monitor with 0 IRE Setup (used in Japan)
Change the OSD OUT item in the Output menu from PAL/NTSC to PAL/NTSC-J.
See section 4-2. "Menu Operation" for how to change menu items.
Monitoring Input Image or Output Image
The output image is also displayed on the Composite monitor when SD signal is selected for
output. However, in some cases, it isn't displayed properly because the OSD OUT images
are not phase adjusted by the reference signal.
If the Monitor item in the Output menu is set to Input, the input image is also displayed on
the Composite monitor only when inputting a composite or an SD-SDI signal. (See "3-4. SDI
Monitor Setup" below)
3-4. SDI Monitor Setup
Prepare an SDI monitor for previewing images. The SDI monitor is connected to the SDI
MONITOR OUT on the UFM-30UDC rear panel. Both input and output images can be
previewed on the SDI monitor. The output image is displayed in the factory default setting.
To Monitor Input Image Before Processing
Change the Monitor item in the Output menu to Input. The converted SD-SDI image is sent
to the SDI monitorout when inputting a composite image. See section 4-2. "Menu Operation"
for how to change menu items.
