8K/4K/HD Test Signal Generator

ESG-8000

From HD to 8K, covers all video/audio testing needs

Full range of test patterns, extensive outputs
Test signal generator compatible with YCbCr 4:2:2 10-bit FS-SHV (Super Hi-Vision Full Resolution) signals. Also produces DG-SHV (Super Hi-Vision Dual Green) signals.

Features

Video test patterns

Standard test patterns include color bars, ramp, steps, white, black, pathological, crosshatch, multiburst, and noise. Up to 10 custom test patterns created on a computer can be registered.

Colorimetry switching

Choose from ITU-R BT.2020 or ITU-R BT.709 for 8K testing (except for custom test patterns).

Test pattern scrolling

Scroll test patterns horizontally, vertically, or diagonally.

Character display

Display time codes or payload IDs on test patterns if needed.

Output frame frequency switching

Choose from 59.94 Hz or 50 Hz.

Audio test signals

Choose from standard test signals, such as a 1 kHz signal, or custom WAV (linear PCM) files created on a computer.

Full-featured output

For 8K video output in DG mode, choose from one line (1.5G-SDI: 16 channels) or two (3G-SDI: 8 channels). In FS mode, one line (3G-SDI: 16 channels) is provided. Choose from one or two lines for 4K or HD video output. Audio is embedded in HD, 4K, or 8K output. Also supports MADI signals.

Payload information multiplexing

Payload information can be multiplexed into output signals.

Reference signal outputs

Three lines are provided, for which either black burst (BB) or tri-level sync mode can be independently selected.

External control, SNMP monitoring

Control the unit via telnet, or monitor operation via SNMP.
