The ultimate sync test pattern & time reference generator is designed to satisfy all needs of digital (Standard, High Definition & 3G) and mixed digital/analogue operational environments in broadcast, post-production, OB and other applications. It provides all the reference (Color Black, Tri-Level Sync), timing and test signals (including LTC and VITC), together with analogue audio, AES audio & Word clock, needed to satisfy any application in PAL, NTSC, SD-SDI, HD-SDI, 3G-SDI, and mixed-standard installations.
Optionally the unit is supplied with two “hot swappable” redundant power supplies for maximum security. The power supplies are directly accessible from the front panel.
The TSG-460 is designed for use either as a master or slave SPG. Where it is critical to have a backup SPG, the CO-465 auto changeover unit complements the TSG-460. The changeover can be configured to monitor and switch analogue video, digital video, timecode and digital audio signals.
