AP445-401
Pro AV Scaler+
The AP445-401 ProAVScaler+ converts Composite
Video, S-Video, and Component Video signals into
a variety of high-resolution Computer video or
Component video signals. In addition to video, the
AP445-401 has four stereo audio inputs and both
balanced and unbalanced stereo outputs.
The AP445-401 automatically detects and accepts
either NTSC or PAL video standards for
Composite and S-Video signals. The PC BYPASS
computer signal may be switched to the output via
a pass-through input. The Component video
signals are scalable to the following output
resolutions: 480p, 567p, 720p or 1080i.
The Composite and S-Video signals may be scaled
to VGA through SXGA resolution. Additionally,
many control features allow the user access to
adjust picture brightness, contrast, color,
sharpness and hue.
Any audio source may be selected and output to a
balanced and unbalanced stereo output. The
balanced output offers volume control and is
adjustable over 16 steps of gain, whereas the
unbalanced output is set to fixed level output.
The AP445-401 may be controlled either using
front panel buttons or via a standard RS-232 port.
Actual control may be accomplished through a
computer control system or any other device
capable of sending ASCII control commands via a
RS-232 port. Available commands allow audio and
video input selection, image control/adjustment and
volume control. In addition, the AP445-401
incorporates noise reduction filters and
sophisticated 3D comb filtering.
The HelpInside™ feature allows programmers to
have access to command structures and control of
the AP445-401 from any terminal. This technology
provides easier than ever control of the AP445-401
ProAVScaler+ with simple keyboard commands.
No typing of long keyboard strings is necessary.
