4.1Optional Accessories

The following accessories, which are available from Kramer, can enhance implementation of your machine. For information regarding cables and additional accessories, contact your Kramer dealer.

Rack Adapter - Used to adapt smaller machines to a standard 1U rack. One or more machines may be installed on each adapter.

105S - (1:5 s-Video Distribution Amplifier) can be serially connected between the format interface and an acceptor for s-Video distribution. The 105S splits a single s-Video input source into five identical outputs. The 105S uses an external 12VDC power source, and therefore is suitable for field work as well. The 105S uses state of the art technology and microchip design, boasting a signal bandwidth of over 230MHz, thus making it suitable for the most demanding applications.

SP-11- (Video/Audio Processor) can be serially connected between the video/audio source and the format interface for video and audio control/correction. The machine provides camera control and luminance/white balance correction. It is also capable of performing composite to Y/C conversion and bi- directional transcoding. The machine allows full control over the video signal: video gain down to full fade, log or linear definition control, log or linear contrast control, color saturation control, black level control, red, green and blue controls and a screen splitter control for “before-after” comparison. The Input switch control is "audio-follow-video".

VIDEO TESTER - A new, unique, patented, indispensable tool for the video professional, the Video Tester is used to test a video path leading to/from an amplifier. By pressing only one touch switch it can trace missing signals, distinguish between good and jittery (VCR sourced) signals, and identify the presence of good signals. Whenever a video signal is missing, because of bad connections, cable breaks or faulty sources, the Video Tester is all you need.
