TG8000 mainframe

The TG8000 mainframe is a modular system, accommodating up to four user-changeable generator modules and one power supply module in a full-width 1RU form factor. A total of 6 ¹different modules are available for the TG8000, covering a wide range of interfaces and functions such as GPS/⁠GLONASS synchronization and genlock, SD/HD/3G-SDI test signal generation, composite and analog test signal generation, and audio test signal generation.

The TG8000 mainframe has a high-precision oscillator for master operation, or for stable holdover operation when the genlock or GPS/⁠GLONASS reference is interrupted. A 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet interface provides connectivity to the local network for remote operation, test pattern download, and an NTP server (when the GPS7 module is present). A General Purpose Input/Output (GPIO) interface is available to recall one of seven user-configured presets and to report system alarms. The front-panel USB port can be used to easily download user-created test patterns and system preset information, and can be used for system upgrades.

¹There are 12 different modules that will operate in the TG8000 mainframe. The ATG7, AVG7, AWVG7, DVG7, HDLG7, and HDVG7 modules are no longer available but are still fully functional with the latest version of TG8000 firmware.

AGL7 Analog Genlock Module

The AGL7 Analog Genlock Module adds the capacity to lock to a variety of signals, which makes the TG8000 an ideal solution as the master house reference or slave reference for broadcast and production/post-production applications. Three black outputs are available and are selectable for HDTV tri-level or NTSC or PAL. Additionally, the AGL7 can lock to a variety of formats to include NTSC/PAL black and HDTV tri-level as well as 1, 3.58, 4.43, 5, and 10 MHz CW.

When the AGL7 is configured for Stay GenLock™ mode, a momentary loss of synchronization at the genlock reference input will not cause a disturbance in the TG8000 test signal and black outputs. When the genlock signal is reapplied, the AGL7 will gradually reacquire lock, causing little disruption to devices synchronized to the TG8000 reference.

GPS7 GPS Synchronization and Time Code Module

The GPS7 GPS Synchronization and Time Code Module includes an integrated GPS/GLONASS receiver which can serve as the system timing reference. Synchronization to the GPS and/or GLONASS timing signals ensures long-term stability, and video frame alignment between independent systems.

The GPS/GLONASS RF coaxial signal input is available with 3.3 V or 5 V DC power output for the GPS/GLONASS antenna enabling the user to select from a variety of antennas available on the market. The GPS7 also includes a genlock input with VITC reader, enabling user-selectable configuration of the TG8000 as the master reference or as a slave to another master, depending on the dynamic requirements of each production.

The GPS7 module will maintain system timing by Stay GenLock™ technology even during periods of GPS/GLONASS signal loss or genlock signal loss. Three black outputs are available and are selectable for HDTV tri-level, NTSC, or PAL. Time code source can be selectable to the time-of-day (with user-selectable offsets) from GPS/GLONASS receiver, internal source, VITC on the reference input, LTC input, or to a "program time" counter for elapsed-time time code.

The Daylight Savings Time (DST) adjustment could be scheduled as a recurring event based on calendar rules. Time code is available as VITC on black outputs (GPS7, BG7 – hardware V1.2 or above), as Ancillary Time Code (ATC) (HD3G7, SDI7), from four independent LTC outputs (GPS7), and as a response to time requests on a Network Time Protocol (NTP version 3.0) Server.

HD3G7 HD/3G-SDI Test Signal Generator Module

The HD3G7 HD/3G-SDI Test Signal Generator Module is a test signal generator that provides two outputs of a HD/3G-SDI video test signal. 720-line formats and 1080-line formats described in SMPTE standards are supported for both Level A and Level B mapping structures, including 4:4:4 and/or 12-bit sampling, Y'C'bC'r, R'G'B', or XYZ color space, and 2K digital cinema formats. The 2×SMPTE 292M HD-SDI format used by some 3D TV applications is also supported.

The HD3G7 can generate up to 32 channels of 24-bit 48 kHz embedded audio, with independently set frequency and amplitude for each channel. The HD3G7 also has the ability to generate other types of ancillary data, such as video payload identifier, ancillary time code, and user-defined packets.

The HD3G7 includes a wide variety of standard test signals, including SMPTE color bars, pathological test patterns, and a programmable moving zone plate pattern, and it also has the ability to up-convert an input 1.485 Gb/s HD-SDI signal to a 3G output. The module has a clock/frame trigger output that can be used to synchronize the output with an oscilloscope.

SDI7 SD/HD/3G-SDI Test Signal Generator Module

The SDI7 SD/HD/3G-SDI Test Signal Generator Module provides two independent channels of SD/HD/3G-SDI video test signal generation in a variety of formats with separate test and test/black signal generation per channel (3G-SDI signal generation is optionally available).

The SDI7 can generate up to 32 channels of 24-bit 48 kHz embedded audio, with independently set frequency and amplitude for each channel. Option DBT extends the audio functionality by generating these test tones in Dolby E format. Various Dolby E audio frame start locations can be set to test the error handling ability of the signal processing equipment in the signal path. Embedded Dolby E metadata are also included in the Dolby E test stream. Supported Dolby E program configurations include mono, stereo, 5.1 and 7.1 surround sound audio. The SDI7 also has the ability to generate other types of ancillary data, such as video payload identifier, ancillary time code, and user-defined packets.

The SDI7 includes a wide variety of standard test signals, including SMPTE color bars, pathological test patterns, and a programmable moving zone plate pattern, and it also has the ability to generate full frame test signals created by the user. AV timing signal generation, when used in conjunction with a waveform monitor, can be used to ensure that audio and video are synchronized through a video path.

Circle, multi-language text, and color logo overlays may be applied to the generated test signals to check aspect ratio, identify streams, or apply station logos. The SDI7 has a clock/frame trigger output that can be used to trigger an oscilloscope to be synchronous with the video output.
