Features of the DVS-9000 Production
Switcher System
The DVS-9000 Production Switcher system boasts extensible high
performance and multifunctionality. The following are some of the principal
features of this system.
System configuration flexibility
SDTV support
This system supports the SDTV signal formats 480i/59.94 and 576i/50. The
format selection can be switched by a simple control panel operation.
Extensible system configuration
By suitable combination of options, the switcher can be configured with
various inputs and outputs, and different numbers of M/E banks. The system
offers the flexibility to change and expand as required.
When the optional DME board set is installed, the system allows you to use up
to four DME channels.
Powerful external device interfaces
By connecting to a Sony routing switcher or similar, a large system can be
built. From the control panel, it is also possible to operate other equipment,
including VTRs and disk recorders.
Powerful tally system
The complete system including routing switcher provides an all-inclusive tally
system. The system can be adapted to different applications and settings, using
multiple tally outputs, including both on-air and recording tallies.
Comprehensive video manipulation
M/E banks
Each mix/effects bank (M/E bank) is equipped with four keyers, and each
keyer is capable not only of chroma keying, but also independent key
transitions separate from the background transitions. The four keys can be
freely combined, to carry out four different program outputs.
