Overview
The SPG-8260 series generates four pairs of outputs with each pair independently programmed to
be either a tri-level sync or a composite signal. Each pair of outputs can be independently delayed
relative to the selected incoming reference or to each other when using an internal reference. The
delay is in increments of the output’s interface sampling frequency (74.25MHz, 74.25/1.001MHz
or 13.5MHz) up to one frame of video.
The each card is able to lock to one of the two frame references or the external reference input on
the rear module.
Features
The following features make the SPG-8260 series the ideal Sync Pulse Generator:
• AES interfaces conform to SMPTE 276M, and AES-3id-2001
• HD interfaces conform to SMPTE 274M and SMPTE 296M
• SD interfaces conform to SMPTE-170M (NTSC) and PAL-B standards
• Generates four pairs of outputs
• Each pair of outputs can be independently timed (delayed) relative to the incoming
reference
• Composite outputs can be black or SMPTE color bars
• Tri-level sync output format is selectable from the following formats:
› 1080i 60/59.94/50 Hz
› 720p 60/59.94/50/30/29.97/25/24/23.98 Hz
› 1080p 30/29.97/25/24/23.98 Hz
› 1080pSF 24/23.98 Hz
•SPG-8260 only: Generates an AES Reference signal or a Word Clock output (non-TTL)
•SPG-8260 only: Tone option for AES outputs
•SPG-8260-W only: Generates a Word Clock output (TTL compatible)
• Reports status and configuration remotely via DashBoard
• Fits openGear frames
• 5-year transferable warranty

User Interfaces
The SPG-8260 series includes the following user interfaces.
DashBoard Control System
The DashBoard Control System enables you to monitor and control openGear frames and cards
from a computer. DashBoard communicates with cards in the frame through the Network
Controller card. This controller card is required in order to use DashBoard to monitor SPG-8260
series cards. The DashBoard software and manual are available for download from our website.
For More Information on...
• installing and using DashBoard, refer to the DashBoard User Manual.
• the menus in DashBoard, refer to the chapter “DashBoard Menus” on page 4-1.
Card-edge Control and Monitoring
From the SPG-8260 series card-edge you can use a jumper to specify whether to use an
AES/Word Clock output, or a local reference input. A second jumper is provided to terminate the
reference input if required.
For More Information on...
• the card-edge jumpers and switches, refer to the section “Card Overview” on page 3-2.
• monitoring LEDs, refer to the section “Control and Monitoring Features” on page 3-3.
