CAPABILITY, TERMS OF REFERENCE AND OVERVIEW SUMMARY
3.1
Device Capabilities
The C2-7000 series of Dual Channel Video Processors uses the proprietary
CORIO®2 Engine to control its capabilities. The CORIO®2 series units are
the second generation of the successful CORIO® products. The CORIO®2
features are powerful tools for any application requiring high quality video
signal conversion or image manipulation.
Front and rear of the C2-7100
Each C2-7000 series unit features two independent video processing and
scaling engines (CORIO®2) and two video mixers for maximum flexibility in
handling DVI, RGBHV, RGBS, RGsB, YUV, YPbPr, CV and YC (S-Video)
signals. In addition, the C2-7200 range also supports SDI and HD-SDI.
Throughout this manual, any feature or function relating present on all C2-
7000 units will be referred to by ‘C2-7000 series’. Any unit-specific functions
or features will be mentioned by specific product name.
At home in both broadcast and display environments the C2-7000 series is
multiple products in one unit. The unit has three basic operating modes to
simplify control.
Switcher Mode
- Equally powerful Program and Preview channels allow any
function (next Image, PIP, keying, logo, etc) to be set up and previewed,
totally independent of the Program output. Transition from Preview to
Program is by Cut, Dissolve or Special Effect when the user performs a Take.
Independent Mode
- Provides all the power of two completely independent
video processors in one box, each with a full range of features including PIP,
keying, etc. Each output can deliver different formats and resolutions
simultaneously to the other. For example, a presentation being fed to a high-
resolution display on Output 1 via DVI can be fed to a VCR for recording on
Output 2 via Composite Video.
Dual PIP Mode
- Any video input can be squeezed and placed into either of
two windows of any size and positioned anywhere on the screen, even
overlapping each other with user defined layer priority control. The windows
can be placed over any other video input as the background. The images in
the windows can then be seamlessly switched or zoomed. Keying can be
applied to each window independently.
