CONFIG menus

When we talk about menus, we discuss the Parameter Number and Name on the top line

of the display and the Parameter Setting(s) possible as shown on the bottom line of the

display; remember, the current setting is what is shown.

As in the MEDIA menus already presented, pressing one of the parameter Adjust buttons

changes the current CONFIG parameter’s value to a new one from the Ki Pro Rack’s list of

choices—repeating the list if you continue to press Adjust—or adjusting a numerical

value up or down.

The exact choices displayed varies depending on the parameter. Most adjustment

choices made with the Adjust buttons take effect immediately and are subsequently

stored into the Ki Pro Rack’s non-volatile memory if they remain unchanged for 3

seconds.

If a Select or Adjust button is held down continuously, the changes begin to happen

automatically - with acceleration if applicable.

Holding down both the Adjust (up) and Adjust (down) buttons—at the same time —sets

that parameter back to its factory default value.

The CONFIG menus are for system set-up and configuration. Each parameter is

numbered, just like the MEDIA menus.

NOTE: The composite output on the unit follows the component output; this means that the

composite output only works if either the source format or the convert format is SD.

CONFIG Menu

Parameters

Many of the CONFIG menu parameters are used together to configure the type of Ki Pro

Rack recording and associated conversion formats used on the input or output for a

particular workflow.

Before we begin listing all of the individual CONFIG menu parameters, it’s useful to see

how they can be used for an example application. Here are two examples of making

CONFIG menu selections for specific real world workflows.

Example 1 In this example the incoming video is 1080i29.97. However, we want our Ki Pro recording

to match the rest of the footage we have acquired at 720p59.94. Therefore, we select IN

CONVERT>HD 720 to get the desired result. Here are the parameter settings:

• Set 1.1 RECORD TYPE>NORMAL

• Set 1.4 IN CONVERT>HD 720

• Set 1.5 OUT CONVERT>NONE

Example 2 In this example the incoming video is 1080PsF 29.97, so we need to configure Ki Pro for

PsF recordings (which would otherwise be understood as interlace). To do this, we’ll set

the RECORD TYPE to PsF. Here are the parameter settings:

• Set 1.1 RECORD TYPE>PsF

• Set 1.4 IN CONVERT>NONE

• Set 1.5 OUT CONVERT>NONE

1 2 ... 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 ... 110 111
