MT104-108
6-in 1-out S-Video Switcher Card
The MT104-108 is a 6-in (+1 internal input) 1-out
S-Video Switcher Card designed for use in
Multi-Tasker
enclosures. The MT S-Video SW
card enables 6 S-Video sources to be connected
and switched to a single display or recording
device. The MT104-108 is compatible with NTSC,
PAL and SECAM S-Video signals.
The MT104-108 card utilizes solid state switching
technology, and offers video bandwidth of
350 MHz, enabling it to pass high-resolution video
signals without degradation. Inputs are selected
via easy-to-use ASCII commands from a control
system or computer connected to the RS-232 port
of a Multi-Tasker™ enclosure.
Additionally, VIS (Vertical Interval Switching)
capability may be added by special order. This is a
feature that eliminates the "glitch" normally
associated with video switching when all input
video signals are gen-locked together. Also
available through ASCII control is “on-off” output
control.
