1System Overview

1.1 The MW-3EM Product

This manual describes the function of the MW-3EM, mixer/wipe unit. This unit is

similar to the older eyeheight MW-3E but will also function in HD-SDI modes. The

MW-3EM product also has a full 16 channels of audio as standard. The system is

also available as an MW-3M which has no audio processing capability.

The MW-3EM is an A/B (2-Input) SDI Mixer unit which will perform a variety of

transitions commonly used in transmission and post production. The main

features are as follows:

A/B Mix/Cut transitions

A/B Wipe transitions with 8 wipe patterns with coloured/soft borders

16 channel embedded Audio Mixing follows video transitions. (configurable

as mix or cut transitions, cut transitions suitable for dolby E splice) **

Embedded audio manipulation (LR swap, Mono….) **

Programmable (Auto) or manual transitions

Preview Output with safe area generator built in.

Internal Matte and Black Generator.

Up to +/- ½ Line user definable synchronisation window for A/B Inputs

External Digital Reference Input ensures output stability

6 user memories

Compatible with etherbox GPI/Tallies.

FULLY software and firmware updatable using Flash technology.

Compatible with eyeheight geNETics automation protocol.

** MW-3ME only, not available on the MW-3M.

Associated Equipment for the MW-3EM

The MW-3EM processing card requires the following in order to set up and

operate the unit.

1. An etherbox chassis (FB-9E). Up to three MW-3EM units and be

installed in one chassis.

2. A Flexipanel control surface such as an FP-9 or an FP-10.

2Installation

This unit requires SDI digital video connections to the BNC connectors. The user

should refer to the etherbox user manual for installation of the MW-3EM into a

chassis and connection of flexipanels. This will also describe the process of

acquiring a processing card (in this case the MW-3EM) by the Flexipanel which is

necessary to access the menu structure within the MW-3EM.

2.2 Video Processing, MW-3EM, MW-3M.

The MW-3EM and the MW-3M have exactly the same video processing abilities.

The system will operate over a wide range of Video standards. Please see

section 4.4 for a full list. In each case it must be understood that a suitable digital

reference must be available in the operating line standard. For example if the

system is being switched from 525 line standard to 1080i/50, then the reference

must also be switched from a synchronous 525 digital standard to a 1080i/50 line

standard.

2.3 Video Preview output.

The Preview output will always show the “other” input that is not on air. It is

configured not to show Matte or Black outputs as these are often used internally

as intermediate sources. For example when a U or V fade is performed.

2.4 Audio Processing, MW-3EM, MW-3M.

The MW-3EM has full 16 channel audio processing. Normally this means that if

the Video mixes then the audio will also mix from one source to another. In the

case of transitions through Matte or Black these sources are treated as mute.

This results in a smooth audio transition on all 16 audio channels. Each audio

input can also be configured for Stereo, stereo swap, mono and other styles. As

well as this any audio pair from any group can be configured to cut (splice) rather

than mix. This is guaranteed to splice correctly with Dolby-E sources assuming

that they are correctly synchronous.

The MW-3M has no audio processing ability. This will simply pass all the vertical

and horizontal data (including the audio) unprocessed. The data in blanking is

passed at the end of each transition.

2.5 Audio Preview output.

The audio on the preview channel will always be the “other” input that is not on

air. The preview audio is unprocessed and is spliced with the video from source

to source.
