Overview
The HDRC-4000 HDR Production Converter Unit converts
HDR video signals using the OETF standard. OETF supports
several standards, including Sony’s original S-Log3 curve,
SMPTE ST 2084 (PQ) and ITU-R BT. 2100 (HLG), and
supports mutual conversion between standards.
The unit also features the AIR MATCHING (Artistic Intent
Render Matching) function, which allows you to convert to any
format, using HDR signal OETF mutual conversion, so that the
“look” is correct on a display that supports that particular OETF
standard format. When converting from SDR to HDR, a
conversion that results in an identical appearance is supported
using the Display Referred function.
In addition to HDR OETF conversion, it also supports
simultaneous mutual conversion between HDR/SDR, 4K/HD,
and 2020/709 color space for conversion of various signal
formats.
This unit also supports external reference sync signals, and
can be operated as a video signal frame synchronizer.
Features
Various video signal format conversion
support
Supports simultaneous conversion of various signal formats.
• HDRyHDR: OETF signal standard conversion
• HDRySDR: Dynamic range conversion
•4KyHD: Resolution conversion
• BT.2020yBT.709: Color space conversion
In addition, the SDI signal input/outputs also support the
following signal formats.
• 12G-SDI / 6G-SDI / 3G-SDI Level-A / 3G-SDI Level-B /
HD-SDI
• 2SI/SQD/No division
AIR MATCHING (Artistic Intent Render
Matching) function
This function performs OETF conversion of HDR signals that
maintains the image reproduction (visual appearance) on the
display.
When AIR MATCHING is ON, the conversion is performed
such that the image on a display connected to the input side
has the same visual appearance as the image on a display
connected to the output side. The OETF settings of these
displays are set as the input/output OETF.
When AIR MATCHING is OFF, conversion is performed
faithfully for the OETFs (Opto-Electronic Transfer Function)
configured for input/output. Whether the image reproduction
on the displays is the same or not is not taken into account.
Display Referred conversion
This function performs conversion of SDR signals to HDR
signals that maintains the image reproduction (visual
appearance) on the display.
When Display Referred conversion mode is ON, the input must
be SDR and the output is HDR. Also, the picture quality
adjustment settings (black level, inverse gamma conversion,
highlight creation), excluding the SDR-to-HDR conversion
gain, are fixed (OFF or 0.0).
Simultaneous output of 4K and HD signals
Simultaneously outputs 4K and HD signals as output video
derived from a single input signal.
The 4K output and HD output signal conversion settings can
be configured independently.
Dual system signal processing
Equipped with a dual system (channel A, channel B) signal
processing function.
A 4K signal or HD signal can be freely selected for each input
setting.
Video input/output
Inputs
Channel A
• 4K: 12G/6G-SDI × 1-ch, 3G-SDI × 2-ch, 3G/HD-SDI × 4-ch
or
HD × 4-ch: 3G/HD-SDI
• HD: 3G/HD-SDI
Channel B 1)
• 4K: 12G/6G-SDI × 1-ch, 3G-SDI × 2-ch, 3G/HD-SDI × 4-ch
or
HD × 4-ch: 3G/HD-SDI
• HD: 3G/HD-SDI
1) You can also select the channel A input signal as the channel B
input.
Outputs
Channel A
• 4K × dual system: 12G/6G-SDI × 1-ch, 3G/HD-SDI × 4-ch or
HD × dual system × 4-ch: 3G/HD-SDI
• HD × single system: 3G/HD-SDI
• HD monitor × single system: HD-SDI
Channel B
• 4K × dual system: 12G/6G-SDI × 1-ch, 3G/HD-SDI × 4-ch or
HD × dual system × 4-ch: 3G/HD-SDI
• HD × single system: 3G/HD-SDI
• HD monitor × single system: HD-SDI
External reference sync signal
The output signal can be synchronized to an external
reference sync signal (HD tri-level sync or SD sync). The
following sync signals are supported.
NTSC, PAL, 1080/59.94i, 1080/50i, 1080/23.98PsF, 1080/
24PsF
The unit is also equipped with a frame synchronizer function
allowing it to operate as a frame synchronizer.
If an external reference sync signal is not input, the output can
be synchronized to the channel A input signal. Operation
without an external reference sync signal, and input only on
channel B is not guaranteed.
Supported signal formats
4K: 2160/59.94P, 50P, 29.97P, 29.97PsF, 25P, 25PsF, 24P,
24PsF, 23.98P, 23.98PsF
HD: 1080/59.94P, 59.94i, 50P, 50i, 29.97PsF, 25PsF, 24PsF,
23.98PsF
(Input only) 720/59.94P, 50P
12G/6G-SDI input/output support
12G/6G-SDI Single-Link signals are supported for 4K signal
input/output.
3G/HD-SDI Multi-Link and 12G/6G-SDI Single-Link
conversion are supported using this function.

4
Low-latency output
All signal processing is performed within a single frame, and
the output video is delayed by one frame.
When the frame synchronizer function is on, the output is
delayed by two frames.
(When 4K is output as SQD signals, there is a further one
frame delay.)
Minimum delay setting
When the system frequency is 59.94/50 and the input/output
signal setting is 4K (2SI), enabling minimum delay mode
causes a delay in 4K output of only a few lines (in HD signal
terms). When the system frequency is 29.97/25/24/23.98 and
an SQD signal is set for 4K input/output signal, the 4K output
delay is one frame or higher (same as minimum delay mode
not being enabled).
HD×4 input mode
You can use 4K INPUT connectors as four HD inputs.
This is supported only when the input format is 1080/59.94P,
50P, 59.94i, 50i, 29.97PsF, 25PsF, 24PsF, or 23.98PsF on four
channels, and all four inputs must be in the same format. The
OETF setting of the outputs cannot be set individually.
For HD×4 input, prioritize use of the CH-1 input and CH-3
input. If there is no input on CH-1, CH-2 to CH-4 cannot be
used. If there is no input on CH-3, CH-4 cannot be used.
One of the four systems among the 4K INPUT 1 to 4
connectors can be selected for output on the HD OUT
connector.
Through mode setting
In through mode, SDI signals input on the 4K input connectors
(BNC × 4) are output on the 4K output connectors (BNC × 4)
with a 1-line delay (in HD signal terms). The 4K INPUT 1
connector signal is output as-is on the HD output. However,
720P input is not supported.
16-channel embedded audio support
Audio signals (16-channel) can be embedded in the SDI
signals.
The audio signal with a delay matching the video signal is
embedded in the output signal.
Remote control
Supports the remote control by Sony system camera products.
Format setting, HDR/SDR setting, OETF setting, color space
setting, image quality setting, file operation, and menu
operation are supported from an RCP-1500 series Remote
Control Panel or an MSU-1000 series Master Setup Unit.
Configuration file
The settings of the SETUP menu and ADDITIONAL PAINT
menu within the unit can be stored in up to five scene files
each for channel A and channel B. The settings in the
CONFIGURATION menu, SETUP menu, and ADDITIONAL
PAINT menu can also be stored in up to 32 configuration files
as an all-settings file.
The exporting and importing of each file can be controlled from
an RCP-1500 series Remote Control Panel or an MSU-1000
series Master Setup Unit.
Furthermore, an all-settings file can be recalled from the I/O
PORT connector (D-sub 15-pin).

Connection and Setup
System Connection
The unit accepts 4K signal or HD signal input connected using
BNC cables, and simultaneously outputs 4K signals and HD
signals converted to various formats.
Dual system signals can be processed at the same time, with
each system converted to independent signal formats.
Output signals are output in phase lock with the input
reference sync signal, or in phase lock with the channel A input
signal if there is no external reference sync signal.1)
1) There is no genlock function for locking to the channel B input.
Always use an external reference sync signal or input a signal on
channel A that is used as a reference sync signal.

Relationship between Connection Type and BNC Connector Assignment
The names of the input/output interfaces in Table 1 correspond
to BNC connector assignments in Tables 2 and 3. Check the
input/output interface for the format you want to use in Table 1,
then check the signal assignments to BNC connectors in
Tables 2 and 3.
Table 1: Relationship between 4K operation mode/signal format and input/output interface
Table 2: Relationship between 4K input interface and BNC connector assignment
a) For HD×4 input, prioritize input signals on CH-1 and CH-3. If there
is no input on CH-1, CH-2 cannot be used. Likewise, if there is no
input on CH-3, CH-4 cannot be used.
