Description

This unit is a 1ME 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, asynchronous video signals can be switched without “shocking” or “freezing”. Furthermore, the images created by a PC can be captured 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 outputs of PGM, PVW and AUX (SDI, HD analog component). 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 as well as external sync system is supported

The unit contains a high-performance 10-bit frame synchronizer to enable asynchronous images to be input. By using the BB (Black Burst) signal output, a system can be configured using the switcher’s sync signals as a reference.

Genlock is also possible with external sync signals (BB or Tri-level Sync).

Built-in effects and key combination functions

The unit provides nine different wipe patterns to add borders or soft effects.

Key combination supports self keys and linear keys, and key invert is also possible.

Ethernet and control interfaces supported

The unit can capture 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 using a menu-driven format.
