This option adds a range of pre-programmed zone plate patterns along with user defined controls over several parameters which can be saved to custom buffers. In use the zone plate can be used to test a range of video processing requirements using horizontal, vertical and temporal (time) controls. Temporal control is particularly useful for testing up/down converters and applications which compress signals. Aspect ratios can be tested using the horizontal and vertical controls.   More information

This option introduces a variety of new formats to the standard set of 76 currently available on the SxA and SxE. The new formats include 4:2:2 YUV, 4:4:4 RGB and 4:4:4 YUV at 10/12 bit and 3G level A and B. For broadcast manufacturers the new option allows rigorous testing of many more formats, beyond the standard signals used in traditional broadcasting. Among the support for 3G level B on the SxA and SxE is the ability to generate and analyse signals such as SMPTE 425-B carrying 1 x 372M dual link payload.
