OPT Status
The NovaPro UHD Jr supports both Copy and Hot Backup (default) modes for OPT ports.
VA
OPT 1 copies the data on Ethernet ports 1 to 8, and OPT 2 copies the data on Ethernet ports
9 to 16.
 Hot Backup: OPT 3 serves as the hot backup for OPT 1, and OPT 4 serves as the hot
O
backup for OPT 2.

N
 Copy: OPT 3 serves as the copy for OPT 1, and OPT 4 serves as the copy for OPT 2.

Low Latency
AR
Low latency reduces the input source signal latency from input to output image of the NovaPro

Note:
 The loading width of a single Ethernet port should be no greater than 512 pixels when low latency
function is enabled.
 The supported Armor series receiving cards include the A8, A8s, A9s and A10s Plus.
3D Mode
The NovaPro UHD Jr can work with the EMT200 3D emitter and 3D glasses to provide you
with 3D visual experience.
Note:
Turning on 3D mode will halve the device output capacity.
For a side-by-side 3D video source, the layer width should be half of the video source width. For a top-and-
bottom 3D video source, the layer height should be half of the video source height.
