ESE HD-488/SD HD & SD SDI Time Code Reader/Generator/Inserter
The HD-488 is a Time Code Reader, Generator and Inserter for HD (High Definition) Serial DigitalInterface (SDI) video. Linear Time Code (LTC) and RP-188 Time Code are both read and generatedby the HD-488. The unit also accepts a multitude of HD formats. SD (Standard Definition) is availableby specifying the model HD-488/SD, this will allow the unit to also accept 4:2:2 (525 and 625 line) digitalvideo signals. The inserter mode provides the ability to superimpose time and/or user bits onto videowith alphanumeric characters. As many as thirty characters of text may also be superimposed onto thevideo. Flexibility is also provided to the user, allowing for selection of the information to be displayed(time, time and user bits or text) on up to three different windows. The three windows are independentof each other and may be blanked.
The video input and output are accessible via rear mounted BNC connectors. Time code input andoutput connectors on the rear panel are XLR(When option IRIG is specified the IRIG-B input is via a BNCconnector). The HD-488 is housed in a single height rack mount enclosure which is black anodized.
A 16 x 2 character LCD shows the current time and status of the HD-488. The front panel controls allowaccess to all configuration settings as displayed on the 16 x 2 character LCD. The same controls areavailable on the PC software which is accessible via the rear mounted USB port.
