1.2.8 About the LCD Panel
There may be a small number of pixels in the LCD panel that do not light or are always on.
Note that this is not a malfunction.
The LCD panel supports a large number of video signals. SDI input signals are displayed
asynchronously on the LCD. Therefore, images may appear to flicker on the waveform and
picture displays.
In addition, the input SDI signal is temporarily stored in frame memory and is loaded by
using the LCD display synchronization signal—which is not synchronized with the input
SDI signal. Therefore, because frame skip—which skips over frames in the memory—and
frame repeat—which reads the same frames of the memory twice—occur, the image may
appear to flicker.

2.2 Features
●3G-SDI Compatible 2-Channel Simultaneous Display (LV 5770SER08 and LV
5770SER09A)
The LV 5770 is equipped with a pair of SDI input connectors that support 3G-SDI, HD
dual link, HD-SDI, and SD-SDI signals. The two input signals can be displayed
simultaneously. Even when one of the input signals is not being displayed, the LV 5770
still monitors the undisplayed signal for errors. In addition, the LV 5770 is equipped with
SDI output connectors that can generate serial reclocked SDI signals from the input SDI
signals. The A/B output connector generates the reclocked signal of the SDI signal
applied to channel A or channel B. The output that is generated from this connector is
switched between the two channels whenever an input key (A or B) is pressed.
●Rich Assortment of Display Features
Not only does the LV 5770 have essential displays for video signal quality monitoring,
such as a video signal waveform display and a vector display, it also has a rich
assortment of other display features such as a picture display, 5-bar display, and status
display. (LV 5770SER03A, LV 5770SER08, and LV 5770SER09A)
The audio display includes a loudness display feature that is based on ITU standards. In
addition, a loudness chart, level meters of each channel(*1), and peak values (*1) can be
displayed simultaneously. Simultaneous loudness measurement of two audio sources
(*1) is also possible. (These features are available on the LV 5770SER41 and LV
5770SER43. Features marked as *1 are available only on the LV 5770SER43.)

●Wide Variety of Display Formats (LV 5770SER08 and LV 5770SER09A)
In the video signal waveform display, vector display, and picture display, the LV 5770 can
display up to two input SDI signals on top of each other or side by side. This makes it
suitable for adjusting the gain and black balance values of two video signals. In the video
signal waveform and vector displays, the LV 5770 can make different input channels
easier to see by displaying them using different colors.
●Extremely Flexible Display Layouts
The 1-screen display feature can be used to show each of the different displays on a
single screen, or the 4-screen multi display feature can be used to divide the screen into
four areas with a different display shown in each area. The video signal waveform display,
picture display, audio level meter display, and histogram display can be shown as a
thumbnail display on the 1-screen display.
●Capture Feature
A screen capture feature that captures the screen as still images, a frame capture
feature that captures single frames of SDI signals, and an error capture feature that
automatically detects and captures error frames are available.
Not only can captured data be displayed by the LV 5770, but it can also be compared
with an input signal or saved to a USB memory device. It is easy to view the saved data
on a PC.
●XGA Display and DVI-D Output
The LCD display is a 6.3-inch XGA screen (the effective resolution is 1024 × 768). In
addition, the screen images are transmitted from a DVI-D connector that supports single
link TMDS, so the screen image can be displayed larger than is possible on the LV 5770
through the use of an external LCD.
●Picture Monitor Output (LV 5770SER08 and LV 5770SER09A)
The input SDI signal can be generated as an 8-bit signal. Regardless of the SDI input
signal, the output format can be set to YCBCR4:2:2, YCBCR4:4:4, or RGB 4:4:4.
●3D Assist Display (LV 5770SER08 and LV 5770SER09A)
3D video signals can be evaluated by applying the video signal for the left eye to channel
A and the video signal for the right eye to channel B. The available picture display
formats are anaglyph, convergence, overlay, wipe, checker, and flicker.
●CINELITE (LV 5770SER08 and LV 5770SER09A)
You can use the cursor to select any 3 points and display their luminance information
using f-Stop numbers, percentage values, or level values. You can choose to analyze a
single pixel or a small area by setting the size of the measured area to 1 pixel or to the
average value for 9 or 81 pixels.
Furthermore, the CINELITE Advanced feature makes it possible to synchronize
measurements with the video signal waveform display and vector display.

●CINEZONE (LV 5770SER08 and LV 5770SER09A)
You can display the luminance levels in the picture with different colors. This allows you
to quickly determine the overall luminance distribution in the picture, and it makes it easy
to spot overexposure, underexposure, and different luminance levels in dark areas.
●SDI Signal Data Analysis Feature (LV 5770SER08 and LV 5770SER09A)
On the status display, SDI signal transmission errors and various errors related to the
embedded audio signal and ancillary data can be detected. In addition, the LV 5770 has
event log, data dump, and external sync signal and SDI signal phase difference display
features for analyzing SDI signals. Ancillary data is displayed along with the embedded
line numbers and numbers of the corresponding standards in a list. This makes it
possible to display detailed analyses.
●Timecode Display (LV 5770SER08 and LV 5770SER09A)
The LTC and VITC that are embedded in an SDI signal and the D-VITC that is embedded
in an SD-SDI signal can be displayed. The timecode can also be used for time stamps in
the event log.
●Superimposing of English Closed Captions (LV 5770SER08 and LV 5770SER09A)
The English closed captions (EIA-608, EIA-708, or VBI) that are embedded in an SDI
signal can be superimposed over the image on the picture screen.
●External Control Connectors
The LV 5770 has two external control connectors: an Ethernet port and a remote control
connector.
By connecting the Ethernet interface to a PC, you can control the LV 5770 remotely over
TELNET, transfer files over FTP, control the LV 5770 remotely and detect errors over
SNMP, and control the LV 5770 over HTTP. You can also connect to the separately-sold
LV 7770-01 (REMOTECONTROLLER). (You cannot use TELNET and the LV 7770-01 at
the same time.)
The remote control connector can be used to load presets, switch the input signal, and
transmit errors.
●Eye Pattern Display (LV 5770SER09A)
When the eye pattern display option is installed in the LV 5770, the LV 5770 can display
the eye pattern waveforms and jitter waveforms of 3G-SDI, HD dual link, HD-SDI, and
SD-SDI signals. (Channel A or B, whichever is selected, is displayed.)
An eye pattern's amplitude, rise time, fall time, DC offset, timing jitter, current jitter, rising
edge overshoot, and falling edge overshoot can be measured automatically.
●Digital Audio I/O (LV 5770SER41 and LV 5770SER43)
When the digital audio I/O option is installed in the LV 5770, the LV 5770 can display the
external digital audio in addition to the embedded audio. The eight I/O connectors—16
channels—can be switched between input and output in groups of four connectors—8
channels. Therefore, the LV 5770 can also be used to extract and transmit the
embedded audio's digital audio.
(To measure embedded audio, the LV 5770 must have the LV 5770SER08 or LV
5770SER09A installed.)

●Analog Audio I/O (LV 5770SER42)
The addition of the analog audio I/O option enables the LV 5770 to display analog audio.
In addition, the option is equipped with output pins, which can be used to generate the
analog audio that corresponds to the audio signal displayed on the screen. The
functionality of the option can be switched between input and output through settings.
(This option requires the LV 5770SER41 or LV 5770SER43.)
●Dolby Option (LV 5770SER41 and LV 5770SER43)
The addition of the Dolby option enables the LV 5770 to decode and display the Dolby E
or Dolby Digital signals that are compressed in embedded audio or digital audio signals.
●Analog Composite Input (LV 5770SER03A)
The addition of the analog composite input option enables the LV 5770 to display the
video signal waveforms of NTSC, PAL, and HD tri-level sync signals, display vectors
(NTSC and PAL only), measure SCH (NTSC and PAL only), and measure phase
differences against external signals.
(For phase difference measurement, an external sync signal that is synchronized and of
the same format as the input signal is necessary.)
●Remote Controller (LV 7770-01; sold separately)
Equipped with keys that correspond to the front panel keys of the LV 5770. They can be
used to remotely control the LV 5770 via Ethernet.
(You cannot use TELNET while you are using the LV 7770-01.)
●Carrying Case (Sold separately)
