DUAL LINK COMPLIANCE FOR THE LV 5700A MULTI-SDI MONITOR

Friday April 1, 2005

Cypress, CA.... Leader Instruments Corporation introduces a new Dual Link option for our LV 5700A Multi-SDI Monitor. This new option allows engineering and operations professionals to monitor waveform, vector, picture and status of Dual Link systems traditionally used in professional video acquisition, telecine and post production applications.

Dual Link Compliance For The LV 5700A Multi-SDI Monitor

First to introduce and implement a Dual Link monitoring solution for the production/acquisition and post production markets, Leader has been providing Dual Link solutions to the emerging HDTV based feature film production since 2003. Our most recent introduction, our OP77 Dual Link option, is a new SDI input module that adds compliance to HD-SDI Dual Link formats as per SMPTE 372M. OP77 provides separate, dedicated A and B inputs (with reclocked outputs) for Dual Link monitoring on the LV 5700A; leaving the standard built-in SD/HD-SDI inputs available for traditional SDI monitoring.

Waveform, vector and status/data dump screens are available for Dual Link monitoring and they represent a combination of BOTH links; all of the facilities of the LV 5700A can be used to monitor Dual Link systems. A picture display as well as embedded audio monitoring is also provided (Link A only). With the addition of OP77 Dual Link option, the LV 5700A becomes the ideal monitoring tool for Dual Link applications. The unit also retains all of its HD/SD-SDI monitoring capabilities and adding this option does not change the standard operation of the instrument.
