TVM-4DG

Multiformat HD/SD-SDI Waveform Monitor/Vectorscope

The TVM-4DG multiformat waveform monitor/vectorscope is an easy-to-operate tool for monitoring HD-SDI (1080 and 720) and SD-SDI (525 and 625) signals and is housed in a convenient half-rack scope package. The display can show any one of the following: waveform, vector, picture, Videotek® patented gamut display or Videotek® patented timing display.

Features

  • Two passive looping HD/SD-SDI inputs with auto-detection of input format
  • External reference input accepts blackburst or tri-level sync
  • Simple operation
  • On-screen display of picture, waveform, vector gamut or timing
  • Low power consumption
  • Convection cooled (no fan)
  • LED backlit display (no mercury)
  • GPI control of input and function selection
  • Standards supported: SMPTE 292M, SMPTE 259M-C
