MT106-101 Scan Doubler Card
The MT106-101is a Scan Doubler Card designed for use with the Multi-Tasker™system. When installed in a Multi-Tasker™enclosure, this card allows the connection of an S-Video or one of three Composite Video (NTSC/PAL) sources to a data- grade monitor or projector. The MT106-101doubles the scan rate from 15.7 kHz to 31.5 kHz, while converting the interlaced broadcast video type signal to a non-interlaced VGA-type signal. The selection of an input source is accomplished by RS-232 control through the Multi-Tasker™enclosure.
A/V presentation systems often require the use of monitors that are designed specifically to handle computer video signals. The MT106-101allows the integration of composite video or S-Video into these systems. The MT106-101can also help to simplify systems that would otherwise require switching between video and RGB inputs on a projector or large screen display. Furthermore, the MT106-101improves the quality of a composite video signal, resulting in a steadier image with higher definition.
The MT106-101provides a number of features that can be controlled via RS-232 through the Multi- Tasker Basic Enclosure. These features include controls for horizontal and vertical positioning, horizontal and vertical sizing, black level, color, contrast and brightness.
The MT106-101offers 3 composite video inputs on female BNC connectors and an S-Video input on a standard 4-pin mini-DIN connector. The latter may be adapted to 2 BNC connectors using ALTINEX adapter cables. The MT106-101output is provided on a 15-pin HD female (VGA-type) computer video connector. This output may also be easily adapted to 5 BNC connectors for RGBHV using an ALTINEX adapter cable. Using the MT104-1018-in Video Switcher expansion cards, up to 32 additional composite inputs can be connected internally to the MT106-101, and controlled via RS-232 control to the Multi-Tasker™enclosure.
