The DL-860 serial digital legalizer offers the ultimate solution to the complex world of HD and SD signals. All popular HD and SD formats are accepted, with complete flexibility for legalization of HDI-SDI or SD-SDI inputs. The DL-860 output format tracks the input format, and can be legalized to HD, SD, RGB, and/or encoded color space. CRC values are monitored and recalculated to ensure proper output values. Input EQ added to the incoming video is displayed on the front panel. The instrument has a selection to pass or blank all ancillary data without any alteration except CRC correction.


Options
All of the DL-860 legalization limits are variable, allowing for many custom configurations to the HD clips, SD clips, encoded gamut and RGB gamut limits. Also available is an optional HD-SDI/SD-SDI monitoring output with onscreen gamut error indications.
Direct access and operation of the DL-860HD is straightforward, from the backlit front-panel LCD display to the LED status indications, function selection buttons, and knob for easy menu navigation. All operational parameters, including the selectable bypass function, are also supported via Ethernet using the embedded web server interface. The DL-860 also supports the Harris® CCS Navigator™ control and monitoring software, and the NUCLEUS™ user-customizable control panel.
A user-selectable alarm mask limits the gamut alarm and range indication to a selected picture area, and ignores errors that fall outside the mask. The alarm mask area may be set to the clean aperture (automatically follows input standard) or customized by line or pixel..
The DL-860 can retain 20 presets with alpha numeric names up to 10 characters on the LCD front-panel display, or an unlimited number of characters using CCS Navigator.
