Ensemble Designs 8500 Composite / SD Legalizer and Video Processing Frame Sync - Manual (Page 7)

Compact Systems
A one rack unit (1 RU) Avenue chassis populated with a 5400 TSG and one or two 8500
Series modules makes an ideal signal acquisition system where small size and light
weight are required. With the variety of input formats which the 8500 Video Processing
Frame Synchronizer accepts, it is equally at home with the Y/C feed from a VHS machine,
Y/Pr/Pb from a BetaCam, composite from an analog camera or SDI from a digital camera.
The 5400 TSG feeds reference to the 8500 to allow stable frame sync operation, as well as
providing analog and SDI reference signals for any of the acquisition equipment, along
with a range of analog and SDI test signals. Video noise reduction is available with the
8520 DNR and the 8510 Audio Processor can provide audio gain control, mixing and
embedding to suit the needs of whatever range of requirements the recorder or microwave
transmitter may have. This example is shown below.
