6DescriptionThis unit is a 1ME digital video switcher which supports multiple HD and SD formats. While featuring compactdimensions, it can optionally support HD analog component inputs (5) in addition to the five SDI inputs and oneDVI-I input. Since a frame synchronizer is incorporated for each of the inputs, asynchronous video signals can beswitched without “shocking” or “freezing”. Furthermore, the images created by a PC can be captured via Ethernet.Features Six inputs, three outputs supported despite its compact sizeThe standard configuration consists of six inputs (five SDI inputs and one DVI-I input) and three outputs ofPGM, PVW and AUX (SDI, HD analog component). Optionally, the unit is also capable of supporting HD analogcomponent inputs (5).The SDI inputs support active through outputs. Key inputs can be selected from the six video inputs for use. Multiple formats supportedHD formats (1080/59.94i, 1080/50i, 70/59.94p and 70/50p), SD formats (480/59.94i and 576/50i) and DVI-I(input only) are supported as the signal formats. Frame synchronizer system as well as external sync system is supportedThe unit contains a high-performance 10-bit frame synchronizer to enable asynchronous images to be input.By using the BB (Black Burst) signal output, a system can be configured using the switcher’s sync signals as areference.Gen-lock is also possible with external sync signals (BB or Tri-level Sync). Built-in effects and key combination functionsThe unit provides nine different wipe patterns to add borders or soft effects.Key combination supports self keys and linear keys, and key invert is also possible. Ethernet and control interfaces supportedThe unit can capture images created on a PC into its frame memory over Ethernet (100 Mbps or 10 Mbps) anduse them as background images or key input signals.External control using RS-4 or GPI signals is also supported. In addition, the unit comes with six tallyoutputs. External power supply systemThe unit is powered by an external DC 1 V power supply so it can be used not only indoors but in the field aswell. (However, the unit is not constructed to be rain-proof or drip-proof so keep it away from rain or moisture.) Easy operabilityThe simple panel layout which enables the functions to be operated directly enables speedy live transmissions.Preset-like operations can be performed using a menu-driven format.
