VTM-2400
HD Multiformat OnScreen Monitor
The VTM-2400 multiformat onscreen monitor continues the Videotek® tradition of cost-effective monitoring of HD/SD-SDI. Based on the technology developed for the VTM Series™, the VTM-2400 is an easy-to-operate tool to monitor and measure HD-SDI (1080 and 720) and SD-SDI (525 and 625) signals on any XGA capable monitor. The output display includes video picture, waveform, vector and alarm status or optional audio – each in one quadrant of the screen or any element in a full screen view.
The VTM-2400 also optionally accepts four AES/EBU stereo pairs, four mono or two stereo analog inputs and embedded audio from the SDI inputs. Audio can be displayed as two or four channel bar graph meters with a phase bar and Lissajous readout for each meter pair.
Alarms include:
Video: RGB gamut, loss of signal, loss of video, EDH (SD) and CRC (HD)
Audio: Peak audio and loss of sound for audio
Four presets store user setups are also included for convenience.
