ESE HD-491/SD HD & SD SDI Timecode Decoder / LTC Generator

The HD-491/SD accepts an SDI signal, decodes the embedded RP-188 or D-VITC time code, and produces a SMPTE or EBU LTC output automatically selected to match, while simultaneously generating ESE time code to drive a clock or display system elsewhere in the facility. A configurable SDI video loop output passes the signal on to the next device in the chain.

It works equally as a real-time generator or as a variable-speed translator, and converts RP-188 or D-VITC user bits into several date formats along the way. Setup is from front-panel controls or PC software over USB, and it runs on universal 90-264 VAC.
