Enhanced Picture & Picture function*
The unique Picture & Picture function of the LMD-A220 allows simultaneous display of two input signals on the monitor’s screen. This function helps with colour adjustment and setting of camera frames. Various modes are available: side by side, wipe, blending, difference and auto input switching. This function works when synchronous SDI signals are input. Sync-free side by side with low latency allows you to monitor two signals without synchronisation. You can configure each picture as HD or SD with different frame rates, taking them from both SDI and HDMI. This function works with the false colour function, camera focus function and metadata on the main picture of the two pictures.

Both the waveform monitor and vector scope have various modes, including a zoom function (in an area of 0 to 20 IRE) with the waveform monitor, and a zoom function (in the central black area) with the vector scope, for adjusting white balance. The waveform of a specified line can also be displayed. In conjunction with the Picture & Picture function*, the waveform monitor and vector scope display can monitor two camera signals. In addition, an audio level meter can display the embedded audio signal from the SDI or HDMI input. It can display on screen the ch1 to ch8 or ch9 to ch16.
