Embedded Audio status information 
The following status information is displayed for each stereo pair of channels, arranged 
hierarchically according to the groups to which they are assigned. 
OmniTek XR firstly detects whether each pair of channels is enabled or disabled. If it is 
enabled, the following status information is displayed. If it is not enabled, none of the 
following will be detailed.

Where the Dolby-E option is installed, the remainder of the display is used to show 
information obtained from Dolby-E data where this is encoded in the embedded audio. 
Similarly, where the system includes the External Audio option, the display may also 
include information about the audio associated with AES/EBU format video passed to the 
OmniTek XR via the AES card. 
Note: 
The range of information displayed may be filtered to reduce it to just those items you are 
interested in. This is described in the section starting on page 119. 
Dolby-E information 
The Dolby-E information shown in the Audio Status window comprises the contents of the 
Dolby Frame included alongside each video frame, together with information such as the 
line of the video frame on which the Dolby Frame starts. 
The information encoded within the Dolby Frame is very extensive and is described in 
detail in the section on Dolby Frame Data below. 
AES/EBU Status information 
The status information displayed about AES/EBU format audio on External Audio 
systems is much the same as that displayed about embedded audio. 
Options menu 
The Options menu in the Audio Status window includes the following options:  
Flat View 
Ticking this option selects the alternative ‘flat’ status display (see page 84). 
Configure Timeline 
This option allows you both to opt to display ‘timelines’ indicating the rate at 
which different type of errors are occurring and to set the parameters of that 
those timelines (as shown the following dialogue). See page 84.
