The Display Control Modules (DCM) are
modular electronics boxes, which can
be configured to meet specific
application requirements (e.g. multiple
analog or digital video inputs, direct
camera input). The mixing functionality
incorporated in the MRFD results in a
total, low-cost solution for image
overlay and mixing, with no need for
separate video mixing cards to be
installed at the host computer. The
MRFD also features BIT (Built-in Test),
which assists users in fault isolation.
Barco offers Display Modules in
various screen sizes, ranging from 17" to
21". All modules are completely
enclosed and have front filters bonded to
the LCD for improved optical
performance and elimination of all
condensation problems. Moreover, all
Display Modules feature Automatic
Phase Adjust (APA) technology, offering
clear and sharp images over time.
The MRFD’s modular Display Control
Module can be equipped with a full
range of high-performance imaging
boards to operate in a broad variety of
applications. The basic configuration
consists of a Power Supply Board and a
Signal Interface Board, providing analog
and digital RGB input. By selecting
additional boards, users can define a
configuration that meets their specific
functional requirements.
The MRFD’s modular architecture
combines a Rugged Display Module
(RDM) with a Display Control Module
(DCM), connected by a single cable, the
Barco Intermodule Link (BIL). Thanks to
this split design, the DCM can be placed
in a remote location, requiring less
console space. To provide a single LRU
installation, the DCM can also be
attached to the RDM.
The MRFD family is available in a wide variety of configurations, combining user-
configurable Display Control Modules with a broad range of Display Modules.
