1UVP-101i Universal Video Processor/Synchronizer
1.1 Introduction
The UVP-101i is a universal video incoming feed processor supporting both digital and analog input
standards, 20-bit AES embedded audio handling and both digital and analog standards available at the
outputs. The analog input's adaptive decoder can handle a variety of decoding modes including Adaptive 2D,
Adaptive 3D and Super Adaptive. The built-in frame synchronizer can be used to lock remote feeds to a local
reference or to delay video signals by up to 4 frames. A built-in proc-amp provides a wide range of video
level and phase adjustments. The UVP-101i incorporates Automatic Gain Control (AGC) to handle the signal
amplitude instability typical of satellite sources, and Time Base Correction (TBC) to handle the timing
instability present on many feeds originating from video cassette (VCR). The UVP-101i is designed to work in
conjunction with the UAP-712i, the AAP-702i, or the DAP-712i audio processor. The UVP-101i can extract
embedded audio, pass it to the audio processor module for processing and re-embed the audio at the output.
A delay tracking output allows the audio processor to match the delay introduced by the UVP-101i. The
UVP-101i includes complete control of VANC allowing each line of the VANC to be passed, blanked or
processed. The UVP-101i’s flexible i/o and complete feature set make it ideal for in-studio and incoming feed
processing applications.

2.2 UVP-101i Mechanical Installation
The UVP-101i must be mounted within a Quartet-M or a Symphonie frame in order to provide power to the
module. The installation in a Symphonie frame also requires a Symphonie-R-M Rear Module. This section
describes how to install the UVP-101i in these frames. It is not necessary to switch off the power to these
frames when installing or removing the UVP-101i. Note: installation is also possible in Quartet, Quartet-C,
Solo, or Symphonie R-C frames, but the GPI / Delay connection will not be available in these cases. See
section 2.3.1 for more details.
2.2.1 Quartet-M Frame
To install this module into a Quartet-M frame follow these steps. For a closer look at module installation and
removal, refer to the Quartet Imaging Frame Guide to Installation and Operation.
1-Remove the frame’s front panel by rotating the thumb screws counter-clockwise. Pull on the handles.
2-Select an empty slot.
3-Carefully place the UVP-101i between a set of module guides and gently push the module towards the
rear of the frame until the module’s edge connector is secured to the backplane. Pull lightly on the
module, verifying that it does not move.
4-Replace the frame’s front panel. Make sure to rotate the thumb screws clockwise in order to secure it to
the chassis.
2.2.2 Symphonie Frame
Installing the Symphonie-R-M Rear Module
Before installing the UVP-101i module, you must first set and install the Symphonie-R-M Rear Module. To
install this module into the frame follow these steps. For a closer look at rear module installation and
removal, refer to the Symphonie Imaging Frame Guide to Installation and Operation.

PRELIMINARY GUIDE TO INSTALLATION AND OPERATION
UVP-101i | 3
Rear module switch settings:
The switch locations on the Symphonie-R-M rear module are shown in Figure 2.1.
-The reference switch LK1 is used to select the reference source for the imaging module. Selecting local
(LK1 position 2-3) drives the reference signal, connected to the rear module, to the imaging module.
-The reference signal selected by LK1 must be terminated by selecting ON (switch LK2 to position 2-3).
Fig. 2.1 Symphonie-R-M Rear Module Switch Location
Rear module physical installation:
In order to maintain the inter-rear module spacing, make sure to remove and replace one rear module at a
time. That is, at all times, there must be at least 15 rear modules installed.
To install a module, follow these steps.
1. Locate an empty compartment.
2. Carefully place the rear module between the rear module guides and slowly push the module towards
the front until it rests against the rear panel. It may require a light pressure to compress the EMI gaskets
on both sides.
3. Using a flat-edge screwdriver, secure the top and bottom screws to the frame.
Installing the UVP-101i
To install this module into a Symphonie frame follow these steps. For a closer look at module installation
and removal, refer to the Symphonie imaging housing frame Guide to Installation and Operation.
1. Remove the front panel door by pulling on the door handles and gently lowering it.
2. Select the compartment corresponding to the previously installed Symphonie-R-M rear module.
3. Carefully place the module between the module guides and slowly push the module towards the rear of
the frame until the module’s edge connector is secured to the rear module. A light pressure to mate the
connectors may be required. Pull lightly on the module, verifying that it does not move.
4. Replace the front panel door.

2.2.3 Rear Panel Label
Connector labels have been shipped with the UVP-101i. These labels are to be installed on the rear panel of
the Quartet-M or Symphonie frame in order to identify the module’s external connectors.
Quartet-M Frame
To install the label on a Quartet-M frame, follow these steps while referring to Figure 2.2.
Figure 2.2 Rear panel label installation on Quartet-M frame
1. On Quartet’s rear panel, locate the appropriate connectors and remove the screws.
2. Carefully apply the label to the connectors.
3. Replace the screws making sure not to damage the label.
Symphonie Frame
To install the label on a Symphonie frame, follow these steps while referring to Figure 2.3.
1. On Symphonie’s rear panel, locate the
appropriate connectors.
2. Remove the rear label mounting screws from the
rear module.
3. Carefully apply the label to the connectors
making sure the label’s text is read from top to
bottom (refer to the Module Label Orientation
sticker on each side of the rear module bay).
4. Replace the screws, making sure not to damage
the label.

2.3 Signal Connections
2.3.1 Rear Panel Inputs and Outputs
The UVP-101i has eight connectors on the rear panel of the frame. Seven of these are common to all
installations. The other two differ according to the installation, as shown in the following figures and table.
Table 2.1 Rear panel connections

COMP OUT 1
COMP OUT 2 All Composite (NTSC or PAL) output (the same signal appears on both connectors)
DELAY / GPI Note 2 Delay: Video tracking delay (see sect. 2.5)
GPI: A single GPI contact closure on pin 2, triggered by a
manual or automatic FREEZE (see section 4.7)
Note 1: Quartet, Quartet C and Solo frames, and the Symphonie frame with the R-C rear module,
do not include an RJ-45 connector on the rear panel. Instead, they provide an eighth BNC
connector. That connector is used for a Reference loop-through when the UVP-101i is
installed. See figure 2.4 (b).
Note 2:The Quartet-M frame, and the Symphonie frame with the R-M rear module, provide 7 BNC
connectors and an RJ-45 connector on the rear panel. In this configuration, the RJ-45 is
used for Delay and GPI outputs, and there is no reference loop-through. See figure 2.4 (a).

2.4 Genlock
The UVP-101i can lock its output timing to one of four sources: the external reference, the analog composite
video input, the digital video input or an internal digitally-corrected oscillator. The source used to lock the
UVP-101i depends on the presence of a reference, the analog input, the digital input and the source type
(Satellite, Studio or VCR; see section 4.2.2).
2.4.1 External Reference
The external reference is usually a black burst composite signal or any composite video signal with burst
according to SMPTE-170M or ITU-624-4. It may also be any analog composite video signals (non-black
signal).
