Overview

The SZC-2001/2001M/2001W HD CUTOUT Software, SZC-2002/2002M/2002W HD HFR Software, and SZC-4002/4002M/4002W HFR Software are optional software for the BPU4000/4500 Baseband Processor Unit. SZC-2001/2001M/2001W HD CUTOUT Software can be installed on the HDCU4300 with software version 1.20 and later, and SZC-4002/4002M/4002W HFR Software can be installed on the HDCU4300 with software version 1.00 and later (SZC-2002/2002M/2002W cannot be installed on the HDCU4300).

• Installing SZC-2001/2001M/2001W on the BPU4000/4500 or HDCU4300 allows you to cut an HD signal out of a 4K image.
• Installing SZC-2002/2002M/2002W on the BPU4000/4500 enables High Frame Rate format output, when connected to a PMW-F55 Solid-State Memory Camcorder or F65 Digital Motion Picture Camera, allowing you to transfer and perform signal processing of HFR images.
• Installing SZC-4002/4002M/4002W on the BPU4000/4500 or HDCU4300 enables High Frame Rate format output, when connected to a PMW-F55, F65, HDC4300 Color Camera, or HDC-P43 Multi Purpose Camera, allowing you to transfer and perform signal processing of HFR images.
• All functions that are added by installing SZC-2002/2002M/2002W are included in SZC-4002/4002M/4002W.

The SZC-2001M/2002M/4002M is limited to use for 30 days.

The SZC-2001W/2002W/4002W is limited to use for 7 days.

Installation of the SZC-2002/2002M/2002W using

RQ_LIC.DAT is not supported.

Installation

1 Prepare a key file.

There are two types of key files: .key file and RQ_LIC.DAT file. The preparation varies depending on the type of key file you have.

If installing from RQ_LIC.DAT

Do not change the contents of the RQ_LIC.DAT file. The "RQ_LIC.DAT" file name is the same for each device (BPU4000/BPU4500/HDCU4300).

Copy the file to the top level of a USB flash drive, and do not move it. The installation will fail if the file is moved.

If installing from a .key file

Create a text file that includes the software installation key and change the filename.

BPU4000: bpu4000.key

BPU4500: bpu4500.key

HDCU4300: hdcu4300.key

Note that the extension is “.key.”

Key file format

• You can describe multiple installation keys in a single key file (bpu4000.key, bpu4500.key, or hdcu4300.key). Invalid keys are ignored in the installation process.
• Describe only one installation key on a single line.
• Any description between “#” or “;” and the line break is read as a comment.

Note

Entering multiple keys to specify the period of use will install all the keys at the same time, and the period of use registered is the consecutive period of all keys.

Copy the created file to the specified folder on the USB flash memory.

On the BPU4000, create a \MSSONY\PRO\

CAMERA\BPU4000 folder on a USB flash drive and copy "bpu4000.key" to that folder.

On the BPU4500, create a \MSSONY\PRO\

CAMERA\BPU4500 folder on a USB flash drive and copy "bpu4500.key" to that folder.

On the HDCU4300, create a \MSSONY\PRO\

CAMERA\HDCU4300 folder on a USB flash drive and copy "hdcu4300.key" to that folder.

2 Install the key file.

The installation procedure is the same for a .key file and RQ_LIC.DAT.

Connect the USB flash drive to the USB connector on the front panel, and install the key file from the drive onto the BPU4000/4500 or HDCU4300 using the page of the CONFIGURATION menu (MAINTENANCE menu on the HDCU4300).

For details on menu operations, refer to the OPERATION MANUAL of the BPU4000/4500 or HDCU4300.

INSTALLED OPTION

When the key file is installed on the BPU4000/4500 or HDCU4300, an indication of the installed options is displayed in the INSTALLED OPTION field of the page.

The illustrations below give an example of the indication when SZC-2001/2001M/2001W is installed. The indication will vary depending on the key file that you install.

Period of use

The period of use is displayed for time-limited software.

Note

For time-limited software (SZC-2001M/2001W/2002M/2002W/4002M/4002W), the same key cannot be reinstalled once it has been installed. Nor can it be uninstalled once it has been installed.

SZC-2001/2001M/2001W

Installing SZC-2001/2001M/2001W on the BPU4000/4500 or HDCU4300 adds the HD-CutOut function, allowing you to cut an HD signal from 4K images.

Enabling the HD-CutOut function

Note

The HD-CutOut function is enabled when the following settings are made.

- On the BPU4000/4500

On the

page of the CONFIGURATION menu, "RESOLUTION" is set to 4096×2160 or 3840×2160, and "FREQUENCY" is set to 59.94 or 50.

- On the HDCU4300

On the page of the SYSTEM OPERATION menu, "CHU MODE" is set to HDC(HD CUTOUT).

1 Display the page of the CONFIGURATION menu on the BPU4000/4500.

2 Set "HD CUTOUT" to ON (see following diagram).

“(OFF)” is displayed for formats that do not support the HD-CutOut function.

BPU4000/4500 example

Using the HD-CutOut function

This section describes how to use the HD-CutOut function using the menu on the BPU4000/4500 or HDCU4300 ( page of the CONFIGURATION menu on the BPU4000/4500, or page of the SYSTEM OPERATION menu on the HDCU4300).

Selecting the cut-out mode

Select one of the following for the “MODE” parameter. SIMPLE HD: Cuts out a 1920 × 1080 HD image from the 4K image for output as-is. Dual outputs are supported.

ZOOM&PERSPECTIVE: Cuts out a region of the 4K image which is then zoomed in/out to create an HD signal output. Perspective transformation is performed, according to the lens focal length, so that the output image is the same as if the camera was pointing toward the cut-out direction. Only one output is available.

For details about assigning BNC connectors for HD cut-out signal output, refer to the Operation Manual supplied with the BPU4000/4500 or HDCU4300.

Setting the cut-out position

1 Select the cut-out frame (1 or 2) to control using the "CH" parameter. In ZOOM&PERSPECTIVE mode, only CH1 is available.

2 Specify the center position of the cut-out frame.

CENTER H: Horizontal position (center is 0)

CENTER V: Vertical position (center is 0)

3 In ZOOM&PERSPECTIVE mode, specify the zoom ratio using the "ZOOM" parameter (1.0 represents a frame the same size as the 4K image).

Setting perspective transformation parameters for cut-out

In ZOOM&PERSPECTIVE mode, set the following parameters.

CAMERA TILT: Camera tilt angle (horizontal is 0 with positive angles pointing up)

CAMERA ROLL: Camera roll angle (slope of picture frame relative to horizontal, horizontal is 0 with positive angles indicating counterclockwise rotation)

FOCAL LENGTH: Lens focal length in mm units. To avoid any image deformation due to perspective transformation, increase the focal length till it reads "INFINITY."

Controlling the HD-CutOut function from a controller

You can also control the HD-CutOut function using an HD cut-out controller (such as the CNA-1) connected to the LAN port on the rear panel of the BPU4000/4500 or HDCU4300.

In this case, set the IP settings for the BPU4000/4500 on the page of the CONFIGURATION menu on the BPU4000/4500.

On the HDCU4300, set the IP settings on the page of the NETWORK menu.

For details about operation, refer to the operation manual of the controller.
