SP-11is a studio quality video processor with a unique combination of switching, distributing, and transcoding capabilities. It can be serially connected between a receiver and an acceptor for video/audio processing. It is designed primarily to control video properties such as hue, color, black level, brightness etc. The SP-11has a total of four inputs (two composite video, and two s-Video), and the selection is via a simple front-panel. The desired input is then processed and routed to all four outputs simultaneously via internal composite/s-Video transcoding. Eight independent adjustments are provided including VIDEO GAIN down to full fade, log or linear DEFINITION, log or linear CONTRAST, COLOR saturation, BLACK level, and separate RED, GREEN, and BLUE level controls. The screen SPLITTER provides “before and after” comparison on one monitor. Audio inputs are switched with their respective video inputs in an "Audio- follow-Video" order. The SP-11is dependable, rugged, and fits in one vertical space of a standard 19” rack.
VM-5S(1:5 Video Stereo Audio Distribution Amplifier) is an exceptionally high performance 1:5 distribution amplifier for video and stereo audio signals thatcan be serially connected between a receiver and an acceptor for video/audio distribution purposes. It accepts one input signal, (composite, single component, or serial digital video), and distributes it to five identical outputs using BNC connectors for video, and RCA connectors for audio. The VM-5Sis typically used for composite video sources such as VCR’s, cameras, etc., but its wide video bandwidth, exceeding 350MHz, also allows it to be used for high-resolution video signals, SDI (serial digital) video, and other specialized analog and digital signals. Video output signals can be AC or DC coupled and inputs can be looped using an external termination switch to create larger systems. The machine can handle either unbalanced stereo, or it can be easily adapted to handle balanced mono audio signals. The VM-5Sis rugged, and is housed in a convenient half-rack sized enclosure for desktop use. It can also be rack mounted using the RK-80kit, which holds two units in one vertical space of a standard 19” rack.
VM-10ARII - is a video/audio distribution amplifier designed for studio and other demanding applications, and it can be serially connected between a receiver and acceptor(s) for video/audio distribution purposes. The VM-10ARIIhas looping video and stereo audio inputs, each splitting to 10 outputs. The user may choose unbalanced stereo or balanced mono audio on the front panel switches. The output audio and video levels, as well as video cable EQ. may be adjusted via trimmers, accessible from the front panel. The video outputs are in two blocks of 5 outputs each, where each block may be individually trimmed for level and cable EQ., thereby achieving different compensations for different cable lengths. Several VM-10ARIIunits may be chained through the looping inputs. Output video signals are DC or AC coupled (user selectable) for maximum flexibility.
VS-1201xl– is a Vertical Interval Switcher, that can be serially connected between a receiver and an acceptor for video switching purposes. It provides effortless switching from twelve composite video/stereo audio inputs to one output (video and audio). The glitch-free switching is performed during the vertical interval, either of source no. 1, or of the external sync socket. The switcher may be controlled in four ways: Touch buttons, RS-232, RS-485 and contact closure via a remote socket on the back of the machine. The machine can be interconnected and cascaded, (2 VS-1201xlmachines become 24x1, etc.) or operated in parallel (3 VS-1201xlmachines become a 12x1 video component switcher). Video signal bandwidth is 250MHz , thus meeting the requirements of the most demanding applications, and ensuring that the machine remains transparent even in the most critical production, presentation, or broadcast applications. The VS- 1201xl family is dependable, rugged, and each fits in one vertical space of a standard 19” rack.
VIDEO TESTER - A unique, patented, indispensable tool for the video professional, the Video Tester is used to examine a video path leading to/from a machine. 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 sufficient to trace the source of the problem. There is no need for oscilloscopes, waveform monitors or vectorscopes to trace and rectify such common problems. Indispensable for fieldwork, the Tester checks for sync and odd/even data in the signal and is not triggered by noise, hum or even by a 15kHz non-video source. The Video Tester is compact (not much bigger than a cigarette box); resides in a sturdy plastic housing with pocket clip, and will typically operate for several months from a single 9-Volt battery.
