ISM 824 Integration Scaling Multiswitcher • Introduction

The multiswitcher accepts up to eight video inputs of various resolutions on five

female BNC connectors per input. Depending on the output board configurations,

the multiswitcher scales, down-converts, or simply passes the video inputs to

output RGB or YUV video. The outputs are made on five female BNC connectors,

or two 15-pin HD connectors (dual wideband board only), DVI-D connectors, and

HD-SDI connectors (supports SMPTE 292M standard). Inputs and outputs are

made in the following signal formats:

RGB (RGBHV, RGBS) video

YUV-HD (HDTV) video

Progressive YUV component video

Interlaced YUV component video

S-video (Y/C)

Composite (NTSC, PAL, SECAM) video

Each video input is individually configurable

for color, tint, brightness, contrast,

detail, position, size, and zoom via the front panel, RS-232/RS-422, or Ethernet

control.

The ISM also allows the various high-resolution and low resolution video

formats to be displayed on a device with a fixed resolution and aspect ratio, such as

a liquid crystal display (LCD) projector, a digital light processor (DLP) projector, a

plasma display, or, optionally, a DVI or HD-SDI device.
Figure 1-1 shows an example of an ISM 824 application.
