Lynx Technik lines up enhanced Testor and more
One of Lynx Technik ’ s most popular products , the Testor lite 3G handheld test signal generator has now been enhanced with two key features : a genlock input , and independent text overlay for each output .
Testor lite 3G is a multi-standard ( SD / HD / 3G 4:2:2 , dual link ), compact , portable , battery-powered and simple-to-operate test signal generator that is used by broadcasters , field engineers and post-production facilities to troubleshoot and monitor video and audio signals .
With the new features , the SYNC BNC connector of the Testor lite 3G can now be configured to either work as a sync output or reference input . When configured as a reference input , the Testor lite 3G can be locked to an external video reference signal . This results in the video test signals being in-sync with the reference signal , while the genlock input also includes cross-lock capability .
With the addition of independent text overlay for each output , each test pattern output ( two are provided ) can be configured to support a variety of overlays , including user-defined scrolling or static text . The new feature allows users to create separate text overlays for each output . This is ideal , according to Lynx Technik , when users are testing separate video links , providing them the ability to use the overlay feature to accurately identify each signal .
At booth 5A6-01 , Lynx Technik is also displaying the new yellobrik SDI frame synchroniser , designed for digital video and audio processing applications that require synchronisation of a wide variety of SDI sources . The PVD1800 auto-detects 3G / HD / SD-SDI sources , including 3G-SDI Level A and B dual link formats . An optional fibre-optic I / O that can be configured to automatically switch between the electrical and optical input if a signal loss is detected is also offered .
Another key feature of the PVD 1800 is its cross-lock capability , a function that converts a mismatched SDI output to match its connected reference signal . Suitable for any application involving SDI feeds with
mxfSPEEDRAIL unifies production environment
MOG Technologies is displaying its mxfSPEEDRAIL solution , a fully featured toolset that includes ingest , capture , playback and file conversion in a single and configurable platform . The solution can be integrated with the most popular broadcast technologies and formats , offering high-traffic performance , great interoperability between platforms and efficient metadata sharing , says MOG .
Visitors to MOG ' s partner booth , On-Air Asia , ( 5A5-09 ) should also watch out for SkyWatch , an enterprise platform that allows supervision , control and management of the complete production workflow . frequencies that are different to the connected reference , the PVD 1800 also offers 30 frames of programmable timing delay with frame , line and pixel adjustments .
Also new from Lynx Technik are three MADI fibre optical to MADI coaxial converters / transceivers . The OBD 1210 bidirectional MADI optical to coax converter / transceiver pair ; OTR 1210 / OTR 1210MM ( multi-mode ) MADI optical to coax converter transceiver that combines a fibre transmitter and receiver in a single package ; and the OTR 1240 MADI optical to coax converter / transceiver for CWDM wavelengths allow for the transmission and extension of audio over coax or fibre-optic lines .
