LUT-box Mini-Converter v2.3r3 4 www.aja.com

Chapter 1 – Introduction

Overview

Working with material outside the normal REC709 video color space (such as LOG

material) can cause confusion both on set and in the edit suite with colors that

are not properly represented for client review and approval. LUT-box ensures that

every monitor is showing the correct color “look” for any source signal while still

allowing the footage to maintain its original color look and take advantage of

additional dynamic range.

Load two custom 1D LUTs and two custom 3D LUTs (four total) into LUT-box to

adjust the “look” for any source signal with simultaneous outputs to HDMI and

SDI monitors from a single LUT-box. Auto controls are available to configure

the unit automatically to match the input and output video parameters. Switch

between two LUTs, using Mini-Config or DIP switches, to quickly A/B compare

between the two. You can even apply a 1D LUT and a 3D LUT simultaneously,

feeding the output of the 1D LUT to the input of the 3D LUT for serial processing.

Once configured, the settings are non-volatile. The unit can be disconnected

from USB, powered down, moved to a new location, and placed into operation

there, retaining that configuration.

Features

1D and 3D LUTs

LUT-box supports 10-bit and 12-bit 1D LUTs, and 3D LUTs at 17x17x17 or 16x16x16

with 12-bit processing for accurate color representation.

Multiple LUT formats are supported. See "LUT File Format Support" on page 24for

a complete listing.

Connectivity

LUT-box accepts 3G and Dual-Link input in a wide range of signal formats.

Simultaneous SDI and HDMI outputs allow multiple monitors to view the

corrected color signal, and in-line monitoring of an SDI feed.

LUT-box Mini-Converter v2.3r3 5 www.aja.com

Audio Integration

Up to 8-channels of embedded SDI and HDMI audio output are supported. You

can select which SDI embedded audio input channels are used (Ch 1-8 or Ch 9-16),

and can choose to route all eight or just one pair of these channels to the HDMI

output. Two channels of analog audio output allow direct external monitoring

without the need to disembed the audio separately.

USB and Mini-Config Support

AJA’s free Mini-Config software can be used with any USB-enabled AJA Mini-

Converter and provides an easy-to-use graphical interface with detailed

information about the current input and output formats. Control all the

parameters of any supported AJA Mini-Converter as well as loading firmware

updates from AJA that add new features and functionality.

DIP Switch Control

DIP switches on the bottom of the unit allow local control of some features

without a computer. One of the DIP switches is a “Local/Remote” switch. When

in the “Local” mode, the remaining DIP switches support a subset of the user

controls. When in the “Remote” mode, the normal Mini-Converter non-volatile

registers control the unit (as last set).

Universal Power Supply

All AJA Mini-Converters ship with a Universal Power Supply that includes

international plug connections for use around the world.

5-year Warranty

All AJA Mini-Converters are covered by a 5-year warranty and AJA's advanced

replacement policy. If a replacement is necessary, AJA will ship a new unit

immediately without the need to send the original unit back first, ensuring you

are up and running again as quickly as possible.

About LUT Data Write and Read

The LUT-box has four areas that can store LUT data,1D LUT slots A and B, and 3D

LUT slots A and B. Externally accessed (via USB) LUT file data is written directly

into a LUT-box slot, where it acquires a proprietary internal data structure. The

file name of the source of the LUT data written into the slot is displayed on the

Mini-Config LUT screen. Data residing in one of the LUT-box slots can be read

LUT-box Mini-Converter v2.3r3 6 www.aja.com

from that slot, and then be sent to an external location via USB. When sending

the data, you can select a LUT file format (.txt, .3dl, .lut, .cube) for the data, and

produce a file at that destination location that can be used with other LUT-boxes

and color management applications. This also makes it possible to convert LUT

files from one format to another. However, due to internal math rounding errors,

converted LUTs may not perfectly match each other, though any differences will

be extremely small.

Installation

Typically, LUT-box installation consists of the following steps:

1. Ensure the LUT-box is disconnected from power.

2. Connect equipment to the SDI input connector(s), and to the SDI out and/or

HDMI out connectors.

3. Connect audio equipment to RCA output connectors (optional).

4. Apply power to the converter (AJA power supply included).

5. The converter will now run using the default factory settings. This default

conguration applies no conversion, passing the incoming video to the

outputs, and routes the rst two channels of embedded audio (if present) to

the RCA jacks.

6. To use the LUT box you need to load one or two custom LUTs, using Mini-

Cong:

• Install the AJA Mini-Cong software on your computer.

• Attach the converter via USB.

• Make your changes using Mini-Cong setup screens.

See "USB Control and Setup—Using AJA Mini-Config" on page 7 for details.

7. When congured with the correct LUT, the LUT-box can be powered down,

moved to the target display, and when powered back up retains those

conguration settings.

Choose Auto, 2-channel or 8-channel embedded audio for the HDMI output.

Choosing “Auto” automatically selects the audio channels based on the attached

device's capabilities. This control does not affect the SDI output, which always

embeds 8 audio channels.

Analog Audio Select

Choose which two incoming SDI audio channels from the selected group are

routed to the analog audio outputs. Choose from Ch 1-2 (9-10) through Ch 7-8

(15-16).

Audio Offset In Frames

Permits time shifting the audio outputs in relationship to the video (for example,

to correct for lip sync problems), in 1/16 of a frame increments. Delay range is up

to +7.0 video frames. The actual time duration of delay will vary depending on the

frame rate of the format being converted.

NOTE: Any video to audio delay caused by LUT processing is automatically corrected.

Zero offset sets the output video to audio relationship the same as the incoming

signals.

LUT Screen

Use the LUT screen to view and make changes to the LUT-box LUT settings. With

this screen you can enable and disable LUT processing and switch between the

different LUTs.

LUT In/Out Color Range

Controls color space range input and output for both 1D- and 3D-LUTs.

• SMPTE (default)

• Full

NOTE: The LUT In/Out Color Range must match the setting used when the LUT was

generated.

1D and 3D LUT Settings

The lower part of the screen has two areas, one for 1D LUTs, and the other for 3D

LUTs. The controls in these two areas perform identical functions for each type of

LUT.

Enable

Enables LUT processing. Choose from On or Off. Clicking on the control toggles

between the On and Off states, allowing you to watch the output on a display

device as you apply and remove LUT processing.

Slot

Toggles between the A and B slots. When LUT processing is enabled above, you

can A/B compare between the two sets of LUT data while watching the output on

a display device.

A and B

Displays the file name of the source of the LUT data currently residing in that slot.

The file name of the currently selected slot (whether enabled or not) is displayed

in bold text.

See "Write and Read Controls" on page 12 for LUT data Write and Read

procedures.
