Description
This unit is a single-ME digital video switcher which supports multiple HD and SD formats. While featuring
compact dimensions, it can optionally support HD analog component inputs (5) in addition to the five SDI inputs
and one DVI-I input. Since a frame synchronizer is incorporated for each of the inputs, signals can be switched
without “shocking” or “freezing” non-synchronized video signals. Furthermore, the images created by a PC can be
imported via Ethernet.
Features
Six inputs, three outputs supported despite its compact size
The standard configuration consists of six inputs (five SDI inputs and one DVI-I input) and three SDI outputs
(PGM, PVW and AUX). Optionally, the unit is also capable of supporting HD analog component inputs (5).
The SDI inputs support active through outputs. Key inputs can be selected from the six video inputs for use.
Multiple formats supported
HD formats (1080/59.94i, 1080/50i, 720/59.94p and 720/50p), SD formats (480/59.94i and 576/50i) and DVI-I
(input only) are supported as the signal formats.
Frame synchronizer system and external sync system supported
The unit contains a high-performance 10-bit frame synchronizer to enable non-synchronized images to be
input. By using the BB signal output, a system can be configured using the switcher’s sync signals as a
reference. Gen-lock is also possible with external sync signals (BB or TRI signals).
Built-in effects and key combination functions
The unit provides nine different waveform patterns as wipe patterns to add borders or soft effects.
Key combination supports self keys and linear keys, and key inversion is also possible.
Ethernet and control interfaces supported
The unit can import images created on a PC into its frame memory over Ethernet (100 Mbps or 10 Mbps) and
use them as background images or key input signals.
External control using RS-422 or GPI signals is also supported. In addition, the unit comes with six tally
outputs.
External power supply system
The unit is powered by an external DC 12 V power supply so it can be used not only indoors but in the field as
well. (However, the unit is not constructed to be rain-proof or drip-proof so keep it away from rain or moisture.)
Easy operability
The simple panel layout which enables the functions to be operated directly enables speedy live transmissions.
Preset-like operations can be performed on the LCD panel using a menu-driven format.
