Features

  • High performance digital video scaler
  • Inputs: Composite on BNC; composite, S-video, or component video on BNCs; S-video on 4-pin mini DIN; optional SDI configurable on any of the inputs
  • RGB pass-through input: one 15-pin HD
  • Outputs: RGB or component video on 15-pin HD or BNCs
  • Scales composite video, S-video, component video, and optional SDI with RGBHV pass-through
  • 59 output rates from 640x480 to 1400x1050, including HDTV 1080p/60 — The DVS 204 provides 59 user-selectable computer-video output rates, up to 1400x1050 and including HDTV 720p, 1080i, and 1080p/60.
  • Dual RGB or component video outputs — Two simultaneous outputs are provided for driving two display devices.
  • Patented 3:2 and 2:2 pulldown detection — Advanced film mode processing techniques which help maximize image detail and sharpness for NTSC or PAL sources that originated from film.
  • Quad standard video decoding — The DVS 204 uses a digital, four-line adaptive comb filter to decode NTSC 3.58, NTSC 4.43, PAL, and SECAM for integration in systems worldwide.
  • DMI™ - Dynamic Motion Interpolation — DMI technology is an advanced motion detection and compensation method used to deliver the best aspects of still and motion video.
  • True Rate™ video processing — Recovers the natural motion dynamics of material that originated from film.
  • AFL™ - Accu-RATE Frame Lock — A patented technology exclusive to Extron that solves frame rate conversion issues experienced by video scalers.
  • Aspect ratio conversion — Ability to horizontally and vertically size any video input to meet a specific aspect ratio. Three memory presets for aspect ratio are available for each input by pushing each input button repeatedly.
  • Variable top and bottom vertical blanking — Eliminates edge noise caused by tapehead switching and captioning.
  • Color, tint, contrast, brightness, sizing, and centering controls
  • Front panel security lockout — This feature locks out all front panel functions except for input selection; all functions however, are available through RS-232 control.
  • RS-232 control port — Using serial commands, the DVS 204 can be controlled and configured via the Extron Windows®-based control program, or integrated into third-party control systems. Extron products use the SIS™ - Simple Instruction Set command protocol, a set of basic ASCII code commands that allow for quick and easy programming.
  • Rack-mountable 1U, half rack width metal enclosure
  • Internal international power supply - DVS 204 and DVS 204 D — The 100-240VAC, 50/60 Hz, autoswitchable internal power supply provides worldwide power compatibility.
  • External 12VDC, 3A power supply included - DVS 204 12V and DVS 204 D 12V
