Installation
Please note the following points regarding this configuration:
• Processor #4 (VPx) receives DVI Program and Preview feeds from processors #1,
#2 and #3.
• Using Processor #4, three PIPs are scaled and positioned to create the wide
screen Program display, and three more are scaled to create the Preview display.
Figure 7. Wide Screen Program/Preview Monitor PIPs
• Processor #4’s Preview output is routed to the display for viewing the combined
wide screen program/preview output.
• Processor #4’s Program output is routed to an ImagePRO for scaling, and then to
an SDI or HD-SDI recorder.
In addition to the equipment listed in Table 3 on page 18, you will also need the following
equipment for this setup:
Use the following steps to install an Encore system that includes a VPx, for a
combined wide screen program/preview display:
1. Software Version — Prior to connecting your VPx processor(s), ensure that
software version 1.22 (or higher) is installed in your Encore Controller. Refer to
Appendix C, “Upgrading Software” in the Encore Presentation System User’s
Guide for complete upgrade instructions.
2. Follow all steps to install a Wide Screen Application, as outlined in the
“Installing VPX in a Wide Screen Configuration
” section on page 17. You do
not need to install the six individual monitors for program and preview displays,
because you will be using one monitor instead.
