Audio Status LED
Module LEDs
The module has several LEDs included to indicate status:
SDI Present LED (electrical or ber input)
= Valid SDI signal connected
= (out) non valid SDI signal or signal missing
Audio Status LED
= Both of the audio channels are present
= Only one of the audio channels is present
= (out) no audio present
Power / Prog Setting LED
= Power OK and no internal programmed settings are present
= Power OK and some programmed settings are active*
= One or more of module switch settings have been overwritten
with the yelloGUI application. (Operation of any local switch will
clear internal settings and restore all local switch settings)
= (out) Power not present
* Some additional internal settings have been made using the yelloGUI and the
LED indicates this by turning yellow. The module can be reset to factory defaults
by using the reset switch (recessed under a hole on the side of the module).
When reset the LED will change back to Green.
USB Port / Firmware Updates / yelloGUI
The USB interface on the module is used for rmware updates and for
control of the module using the yelloGUI software application.
To update a yellobrik, power it and connect it to the PC or Mac running
the yelloGUI software with the provided USB cable. The yelloGUI
software will indicate if a new rmware is available for the connected
module and will guide you through the update process.
Firmware updates are always free of charge.

Fiber I/O Options
The module can accommodate several ber options which are detailed
below. These are SFP sub modules and plug into the side of the
module. We can also supply CWDM versions in 18 dierent
wavelengths if required (contact LYNXTechnik for more details).

The module has a small hole in
the case located above the
power connection. To prevent
the power lead being
accidentally pulled out, use the
supplied tie-wrap and secure
the lead as shown opposite.

Operation
The CDH 1813 module is a powerful SDI to HDMI conversion device
with settings provided for almost any HDMI monitoring application,
including 3D. Frequently used settings can be made using the
integrated dip switch and rotary switches. Access to additional settings
is provided via the USB port and the new yelloGUI application, which
can be downloaded from our website.

from SDI to HDMI. When set to “Convert” channels 3
and 4 are swapped resulting in channel allocations per
SMPTE 320M (3=center /4=LFE) and CEA-861 (3=LFE /
4=FrontCenter)

Inverted FLIP
When a 3G LevelB input signal is processed as 3D
content then the default setting is: Left Eye from
Stream A, and Right Eye from Stream B. This can be
inverted with this switch. For 2D content, default is
stream A, and stream B is selected with this switch.
This mode flips the input signal horizontally to show a
mirror image on the HDMI output. Useful for Virtual Set
(Green Screen) on set monitoring.

Connections
All connections are clearly indicated on the module. Analog audio can
be balanced or unbalanced using the phono to RCA adapters supplied.
Switch Settings
The integrated dip switch provides
access to the basic functions of the
module and the settings are self
explanatory. The 8CH / 2CH audio
embedding setting ties into the
audio select switch. If 2CH is
selected then only the selected
audio will be embedded into the HDMI out. If 8CH is selected then the 8
channel “zone” the rotary switch is set to selects the 8 channels of audio
to be embedded into the HDMI out.
On Screen Burn In
Three dip switches control the burn
in information on the HDMI output.
Burn in features are:
- Metadata presence indication for CC,
(Closed Caption) AFD, WSS and VI
- 16 channel audio level meters
- SDI Timecode burn in (if present)
- Safe area and aspect ratio markers
Additional Settings
The modules default settings and local switches are suitable for most
applications. Access to advanced user settings can be made using the
yelloGUI application. See table opposite for the available settings.
