INPUTS
DVI-D
with reclocked thru port
​
Up to 1920 x 1080 @ 60Hz (148.5MHz pixel clock).
Support for RGB and YCbCr colour spaces.
HDMI support with suitable adapter. No HDCP support.
OUTPUTS
4 x 1G Tessera output ports
Each supports a nominal 525K pixels at 8 bits per colour, 60Hz frame rate.
10 and 12 bits per colour output is supported at reduced pixel counts.
Pixel count may be reduced for certain fixture types.
​
Neutrik EtherCON connectors, compatible with standard RJ45.
FRONT-END PROCESSING
All processing at 12 bits per colour channel (36 bits per pixel)
​
Per-input proc-amp style colour controls with histogram preview
​
Controls include hue, saturation, brightness, contrast and individual red, green and blue shadow and highlight.
​
Full HD 1920x1080 standard canvas
Optional non-standard canvas sizes: 1600x1200, 2880x720, 720x2880, 1080x1920
FIXTURE PROCESSING
Free placement of fixtures anywhere in the canvas
​
Free rotation of fixtures to 0Ëš, 90Ëš, 180Ëš or 270Ëš
​
Multiple fixture types per project
​
Nominal 2.1 million pixel capacity
​
Nominal capacity at 60Hz frame rate and 8 bits per colour output. Capacity increases proportionally for lower frame rates and decreases proportionally for 10 or 12 bits per colour output.
​
Fixtures smaller than 16px in either dimension have additional processing overhead and therefore result in reduced capacity.
​
Up to 2000 fixtures per project
GENLOCK
Lock to source
​
Genlock from source to the LED refresh
LATENCY
2 frames end-to-end system latency with all features enabled
​
Latency is measured in multiples of the frame rate period of the genlock source.
USER INTERFACE
Local management using monitor, keyboard and mouse
​
DP++ monitor output supports DVI, HDMI and VGA using a suitable adapter. Monitors from 1280x1024 up to 1920x1080 are supported.
​
2 x USB2.0 on front and 2 x USB 2.0 on rear for keyboard and mouse. Can also be used for USB memory sticks for firmware reload and project backup.
