3 DESCRIPTION
These video processors digitally capture the full video from
color or monochrome sources, reduces these images to
quarter-screen size, and combines them to provide a
monochrome or color quad display on a single monitor
while retaining all color information.
The TC8275 Series has four terminated camera inputs and
one monitor output. A fixed color quad display is provided
on the unit's monitor output, with no on-screen text or
status indications. It has no alarm inputs or other status I/O,
and there are no front panel controls.
The full-featured four channel TC8277 Series and eight
channel TC8278 Series have looping camera inputs and a
VCR input, plus two monitor outputs. Both monitor
outputs have switching capability and both include on-screen
text display capability for camera ID and titles, date and
time, and status indications. Alarm inputs and status I/O is
provided. The TC8277 and TC8278 units are user
programmable via on-screen menus.
The TC8278 eight channel quad displays all eight reduced
images on a single monitor by sequencing two paged color
quad displays.
