The Line Scope over IP is a firmware option for the Densité Series DEC-1003 and DEC-1023 Composite to SDI Decoder, the ENC-1103 SDI to Composite Encoder, the FRS-1103 SDI Frame Synchronizer, as well as the VCP-1021 Composite Control Probe and the SCP-1121 Digital Video Control Probe. The Line Scope option allows these cards to stream video measurement data for a single line of video in real time to multiple iControl client PCs over a standard TCP-IP network.
The Line Scope display allows precise analysis of 525 and 625 digital video signals using the same Composite or Component waveform displays found on conventional scopes. This unique solution includes functionality similar to those of conventional scopes as well as many other functions at a fraction of the cost. Unlike other "remote" scope solutions, the Line Scope over IP does not transmit snapshots of waveform displays, instead it streams measurement data in real time.
The Line Scope over IP option simplifies video monitoring by allowing operators and maintenance personnel to perform analysis of the video signals over IP, rather than having to access the actual video signal. The integration of this feature directly within processing cards means that operators can see waveform displays as they are adjusting levels on the card. Control and monitoring of signal levels can be done either in the same building (LAN) or across the country (WAN).
- Accurate remote measurement at low cost
- Low bit rate allowing use of several Line Scopes simultaneously using minimum bandwidth
- Integrated solution: embedded in the processing or monitoring card
- User configurable color, intensity, trace & graticule
- Real time operation
- Multi-standard: 525 and 625 lines
- Waveform displayed on iControl
Typical applications (all over IP)
- Control and monitoring of proc-amps
- Remote transmitter site monitoring
- Centralized monitoring of multiple remote facilities
- Inexpensive quality control of server ingest & playback
- Signal transport (cable/telco/satellite service)
