Compatibility with Automation Controllers

MAXX servers work with automation controllers from many different manufacturers, accepting VDCP, Odetics or BVW protocols for 9-pin control of each server channel. 360 Systems’ business partners provide automation controllers for applications ranging from affordable systems for Pro- AV, up to large-scale broadcast solutions. Contact a 360 Systems application engineer or an automation provider for assistance with your requirements.

Remote Controls

Hardware accessories are available from third-party manufacturers to perform transport control, instant clip replay, slow-mo, and automation. A table of tested controllers is provided elsewhere in this manual. Contact 360 Systems Sales Support team for assistance with a specific application.

The MAXX-2400HD server provides twelve GPI inputs for remote play, stop, and record capability from push-button panels or other GPI-controlled equipment. Twelve outputs are also provided; these may be used for command acknowledgement (to drive LEDs or logic inputs), or they can output at specific times programmed within a Playlist that is resident on the server.

Better Images with JPEG 2000

JPEG-2000 has distinguished itself for visually lossless encoding of images, and almost complete freedom from visual artifacts. It sets a new level of image quality for High Definition, well-suited for production and broadcast. It’s a first choice for many new cameras and servers, and its easy-to-edit I-frame format is accepted by an increasing number of NLEs. The MAXX-2400HD runs at a wide range of video rates, making it an excellent choice for production, broadcast, and even high-quality projection.

Audio Features

MAXX-2400HD provides most standard professional audio formats, making it an easy fit in a new facility. Eight embedded audio channels are standard equipment for each video stream. Analog audio is expandable to 4 analog channels with the AXP-3 module, and up to 8 analog channels with the addition of an AXP-4 module. Eight channels of AES/EBU digital audio are alternatively available with the optional DXP-1 module. Gold XLR connectors are standard for audio inputs and outputs.

360 Systems brings extensive experience in broadcast and pro-audio to the design of video servers. Their 24-bit word size delivers a 20 dB improvement in SNR (10 times) compared with older 16-bit audio systems. Input circuits provide excellent hum and RF rejection, and 20 dB of headroom. 360 Systems’ Bit-for-Bit® design strategy assures that Dolby®-E, Dolby AC3, or other forms of encoded audio will be stored and played correctly.
