The IEC-786 is a high performance Closed Cap-
tion Decoder for the NTSC system. It is capable of
processing and displaying all standard line 21
closed caption format transmissions. This includes
the codes specified by the FCC Report and Order
on General Docket No. 91-1 and EIA-608 recom-
mended practices for Captions, Text and XDS in
field 2.
Nine standard data channels are supported by the
IEC-786: Caption channels 1 through 4 (CC1-
CC4), Text modes 1 through 4 (T1 through T4),
and Extended Data Services (XDS). The various
operating modes are selectable from four front
panel switches. Designed with the professional
user in mind, the IEC-786 processes composite
baseband video.

Rack Mountable (Optional Tray)
It features a high impedance looping input and two
composite video outputs. A complementary differ-
ential input amplifier assures high common mode
rejection while its phase-linear keyer cleanly
inserts decoded characters into the video image.
Differential gain and phase are well within 0.1%
and 0.1° respectively.
Packaged in LINK's compact 700 Series chassis,
the IEC-786 is both rugged and reliable. If desired,
it may be rack mounted along side two other 700
Series units of any mix.
In addition, the IEC-786 is backed by a standard
10-year warranty. High performance, flexibility, and
economy are equally represented in the IEC-786
Closed Caption Decoder.
