Introduction
ImagePRO-II’s Dual Channel Output mode, available in the ImagePRO-II Dual Output unit, allows for any selected input or Logo to be presented at two different output resolutions simultaneously. For example, say your main presentation output is a projector running at 1920x1080p. With this mode enabled you could also send the output to a record deck expecting NTSC. By assigning output connections to either Channel A or Channel B, the channels can be independently configured for Output Resolution / Frame Rate, Area of Interest, Effects or even Pan / Zoom settings, giving the operator maximum flexibility for a given show configuration.
