  • Avenue 5230 & 6230 Digital to Analog Video Converter and Disembedder

    The 5230 converts serial digital component video into either composite or component analog outputs. Its 8 x oversampling and 12 bit processing ensure high quality conversion for use in the most demanding applications.

    The 5230 has a full-featured Proc Amp for adjustment of every signal parameter. Proc controls include Video and Chroma Gain, NTSC-style hue rotation, Black Balance, and pedestal. Module parameters can be monitored and controlled locally and remotely.

    The 5230 provides fully adjustable output timing relative to the reference input signal. Composite outputs can be precisely color timed and will also track color framing of the reference signal. Incorporating a full-frame synchronizer, the 5230 accepts serial inputs that are asynchronous to the reference. On loss of input, the output can mute to black or freeze on the last good frame of video.

    The 6230 is an optional sub module for converting AES inputs or embedded audio content to analog. There is a four channel audio mixer for level controls, audio shuffling, and phase inversion. The 6230 also has automatic tracking delay and bulk delay to keep lip sync correct.

    BrightEye 55 Genlockable Sync Generator and Test Signal GeneratorBrightEye 55 is a genlockable sync generator and test signal generator that can be used as either a slave or master reference generator. It can lock to house reference or it can lock to its own internal precision standard. BrightEye 55 is well suited for remote trucks, desktop and fly packs. Color Black, Bars, Crosshatch, Multi-burst, and SDI Checkfield (Pathological) are just some of the signals simultaneouslyavailable on the SDI and analog composite outputs. An ID slate with user programmable text can overlay the test pattern. The cyclops feature adds a motion element to the video test signal, handy for live applications. The Tri-Level Sync output provides reference to high definition equipment, such as VTRs, disc recorders and workstations. There are a wide variety of user selectable formats including: 720p, 1080i, 1080sF, and 1080p. Format selections and other controls are accessed through the BrightEye Control app. AES 3id digital audio, analog audio and embedded audio reference outputs are provided.
    Avenue 3RU FrameThe 3RU frame is a full-featured chassis that accommodates any ten Avenue modules. Modules plug into a universal motherboard so that rear modules are not needed. In addition to the ten module slots, there is a dedicated slot for the optional 5030 System Control module. One universal power supply comes with each frame. Redundant supply is optional and does not take up a slot in the frame. Touch Screen front door or plain front door are available. Plastic overlays for each module type are provided and slip over the corresponding BNCs on the backplane to identify the input and output designations on each type of module. In addition to the ten audio and video modules, the optional 5030 System Control Module adds a variety of control capabilities. All modules are hot-swappable and because of the universal backplane, no special rear connectors are needed. 5020 Power Supply Each Avenue 3RU frame comes with one 5020 Power Supply module installed. An optional redundant power supply is available if desired to provide backup. Power is provided to all modules in the frame, the front door fan and optional Avenue Touch Screen Panel. Frame Specifications The Avenue 3RU (5.25 inches) frame fits in a standard 19-inch rack. Any number of frames may be stacked together in any combination. A fan in the front door of each 3RU frame provides the necessary cooling for the frame. The fan is temperature-sensitive and adjusts its speed accordingly. Should the fan fail, a red LED will light on the front panel. If using a remote control option, an alarm can be set to alert the user of fan failure. All critical components such as fuses, filter and fan are accessible from the front of the unit.
    BrightEye 41 Video/AES/Tri-Level Sync Distribution AmplifierBrightEye 41 is a distribution amplifier that accepts analog video, AES digital audio, or Tri-Level Sync signal. It can also be used with SMPTE 310M, Dolby E and AC-3 signals. It provides unity gain fanout over a frequency range of DC to 10 MHz. It can handle composite and component analog video, coaxial AES digital audio, or a High Definition Tri-Level Sync signal. When using a digital to analog video converter and multiple outputs are needed, BrightEye 41 can be used to distribute and provide those additional output signals. BrightEye 41 works well with video converters BrightEye 10 and BrightEye 16. BrightEye 41 is also useful in conjunction with any of the BrightEye SPG/TSGs, for distributing Tri-Level Sync, AES and composite signals.
    BrightEye 57 3G/HD/SD/Analog Test Signal and Sync Pulse GeneratorBrightEye 57 is a genlockable sync generator and test signal generator that can be used as either a slave or master reference generator. It can lock to house reference or it can lock to its own internal precision standard. BrightEye 57 is well suited for remote trucks, post, helicopters and fly packs. 1.5 Gb/s HD, 3 Gb/s HD or SD SDI test signals or black with embedder is output on the SDI BNCs. Composite, Tri-Level Sync and AES digital audio outputs are also provided. There are three user Programmable Outputs that are selectable between AES, LTC, Word clock or 6 Hz Pulse. Analog audio and AES outputs provide tone or silence. Color Black, Bars, Crosshatch, Multi-burst, and SDI Checkfield (Pathogenic) are just some of the signals simultaneously available on the SDI and analog composite outputs. The Cyclops feature adds a motion element to the selected video test signal. An ID slate with user programmable text can overlay the test pattern. The internal Time Code Generator feeds DVITC on the SDI outputs and VITC on the composite outputs, Time Code can also be selected in LTC form on the programmable Aux outputs. In addition to the standard suite of test patterns, users can create custom test patterns on a computer. Using BrightEye Pattern Generator software, simply transfer test patterns to the included Secure Digital flash memory card and then insert the memory card into the front of the BrightEye 57. Test patterns can include motion. File formats supported: .tga, .wav, .mp3, .wma. Many controls can be adjusted through the intuitive front panel. The BrightEye Control app provides a complete user interface for all adjustments and controls. For facilities and manufacturers using 3 Gb/s video, BrightEye units can be combined to form a complete 3G signal chain. The BrightEye 57 test signal generator’s 3G output can be distributed through the BrightEye 43 3G distribution amplifier or the BrightEye 46 and BrightEye 48 E/O 3G fiber optical transmitter/receiver set.
