digital, and embedded SDI and DV audio I/O (with the DV I/O Module installed). All
audio outputs are simultaneously active, which enables both analog and digital audio
devices to be connected at the same time. All four audio channels can dynamically
track the internal delay of the video synchronizer, and a fixed delay can also be
specified, ensuring proper lip sync regardless of the program source. Audio test tones
can be generated at operator-specified frequencies.
The DPS-475 and DPS-575 are more than just synchronizers. In addition to the
features listed above, other functions include: Time Base Corrector, Audio
Synchronizer, Digital Framestore with Linear Keyer, Digital Noise Reduction, DV
Transcoder (optional), Video AGC, 10-bit Video Test Signal Generator with Zone
Plate, Audio Test Signal Generator, VITS Inserter, Video Bandwidth Processor, Serial
Digital Audio Embedder/De-Embedder and Animated Logo Inserter (optional). These
functions can be accessed from the front panel, or from an optional DPS RC-475™ or
RC-4000™ remote control.
The DPS-475 and DPS-575 represent ideal choices for broadcasters transitioning to
DTV. When interfacing analog audio and video sources to serial digital equipment,
nothing offers their flexibility, performance, reliability or economy.
This manual provides operating instructions for both the DPS-475 (NTSC) and DPS-
575 (auto-switching NTSC/PAL). Differences between these two units are noted
where applicable.
