Setting the Signal Format
The combinations of signal formats that can be selected are
as follows.
• When using 4K signal formats, software options are
required (see page 401).
• SWR1 and DME1 (and SWR2 and DME3) signal format
settings are linked.
• Set devices in a switcher system to the same field
frequency/frame frequency signal format.
• The XKS-8215/XKS-7215 Mix Effect Boards do not
support the 3840×2160PsF SQD signal format.
1
In the Engineering Setup >System >Format menu
(7313), select the target device to set.
2
Press [Signal Format].
A pop-up window appears.
3
Press the button for the signal format to set.
The status area shows the selected signal format.
To clear the signal format setting
Press [Clear].
4
Press [Execute].
5
Check the message, then press [Yes].
Setting the OETF and Color Gamut
You can set OETF (Opto-Electronic Transfer Function)
and color gamut information in the payload ID which is
added to the output signal.
The combinations of settings that can be set are as follows.
• The settings may not be correct if you change the OETF
or color gamut at the same time as the signal format.
Wait until after the signal format change is completed,
and then set the OETF and color gamut.
• SWR1 and DME1 (and SWR2 and DME3) settings are
linked.
• The OETF and color gamut cannot be set when a control
panel is selected.
• If the switcher signal format is changed to a format that
does not support the combination of OETF and color
gamut, the default settings ([SDR] OETF and [709]
color gamut) are restored.
• [SDR] OETF and [709] color gamut are specified in the
payload ID which is added to the following output
signals.
- Output signals down-converted to 1080i
1)
- On the XVS-9000, output signals down-converted to
720P
1)
• When the OETF is set to [SDR] and color gamut is set to
[2020], [709] color gamut is specified in the payload ID
which is added to the following output signals.
- Multi viewer output signals configured for 1080P
format when the switcher signal format is 3840×2160P
2SI
- 3840×2160P SQD format and 3840×2160PsF SQD
format output signals
• When using the XKS-C8111/XKS-C9111/XKS-C9121/
XKS-C8166, the board must be reset after changing the
OETF and color gamut.
For details about resetting a board, see “Initializing
Network Interface Settings” (page 389).
1) For outputs down-converted to 1080i or 720P, only the frame size
changes, and the OETF and color gamut of the image are maintained.

In the Engineering Setup >System >Format menu
(7313), select the target device to set.
