ESE ES-266U Time Code Driven Video Time & Date / Timer Inserter

The ES-266U reads ESE or SMPTE time code and superimposes the resulting time and date, or an up/down timer, onto a looped-through NTSC or PAL video signal. Because it is time-code driven rather than free-running, every ES-266U on a facility's video paths stays in exact step with the house master clock.

On-screen menus set character size, position and display mode (side-by-side, stacked, time-only or date-only), and character and background brightness are independently adjustable from black to white with a switchable keyed or transparent mask. An optional RS-232 interface with Windows control software adds remote configuration, and an S-Video option is available.
