8 Kaleido-Alto: -input, highly affordable multi-image display processor The compact and highly affordable Kaleido-Alto, -input processor uses the same high quality image display technology as the top of the range Kaleido-K2. It features SDI / Analog inputs, and displays clocks / timers, UMDs, tallies and audio metering. Kaleido-Alto is ideal for simpler and smaller monitoring systems requiring fewer inputs. inputs Choice of video input options Kaleido-Alto is available in three versions: f Kaleido-Alto-AD with auto-detect SDI / Composite video inputs (525/625 and NTSC/PAL/SECAM). f Kaleido-Alto-D with SDI video inputs (auto detects 525/625) f Kaleido-Alto-A with Composite inputs (auto-detects NTSC / PAL / SECAM). Horizontal or Vertical Markers Indicate Different Aspect Ratios Inside Displayed Window Multi-channel Audio Level Indicators Dual Tally Indicators Multi-source ID Indicators Selectable Background Color Digital / Analog Clock Displays with Programmable Offsets Various Border, Text ID and Status Indicators
Kaleido-Alto: Easily configurable display 9 Pristine image quality Kaleido-Alto s advanced processing delivers pristine image quality; each video input is equipped with an advanced deinterlacing and scaling engine to ensure high quality monitoring without undesired artefacts. The output can be set to the native resolution of the display, up to 1280 x 24 resolution, and each image can be scaled up to full screen, and down to a fraction of its original size. 4:3 16:9 Source IDs Source IDs (UMDs) can be included inside or outside the display window. Multiple source IDs can be positioned over, under, inside or to the side of the display window. Powerful layout editing The Kaleido-Edit software provided with Kaleido-Alto allows the display elements to be customized from an external PC, including window aspect ratios, sizes and positions, as well as the assignments of source IDs, audio meters, tallies, video assignment and alarm status indicators. Multiple layouts can be stored on the system and recalled afterwards. Each window can be configured for 4:3 or 16:9 aspect ratios, and can be independently sized and positioned. Configurable audio meters and monitoring Embedded audio can be de-multiplexed from an SDI signal to provide four stereo peak meters displayed on-screen with audio phase correlation metering. In addition, optional input mezzanines allow the display of AES/EBU audio, or analog stereo meters, and any pair can be selected to the AES or Analog Stereo monitoring output. Clocks and timers Multiple analog and digital clocks can be displayed with programmable offsets and configurable colors. Addressable count up/down timers can also be controlled by a mouse. Clocks can be synchronized with Time Code input using the Miranda Little-Red LTC Reader to RS-232 option. 55 0 5 Easy control and configuration Kaleido-Alto allows multi-user access via a TCP-IP network for layout editing. System configuration and control can be performed with a mouse and a keyboard. An optional remote panel quickens every day operations such as recalling layouts, selection of a window full screen, or the selection of an audio pair to the monitoring output. A single remote panel can control multiple Kaleido-K2, Kaleido-Alto and Tango systems. 45 50 40 20:07:12 20 15 35 30 25

Tango: SDI quad-split processor 11 Source ID Static or Slave from a Router Tango is a compact but high quality SDI quad-splitter, which is ideal for high density and critical monitoring applications. KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS f Display 4 signals on a single display f Four 4:2:2 SDI inputs Tango can simultaneously display up to four SDI signals on a single high-resolution computer, projection or plasma display. Featuring full -bit processing and pixel mapping, Tango can be used for critical monitoring applications. Tango's design features a lack of scaling in quad-split mode, and the best performance is achieved when it is used with a CRT monitor, revealing all pixels intact. The Tango is also compatible with digital displays such as LCD, plasma and other digital devices, by performing a fixed SVGA resolution (DD mode). Tango supports both 4:3 and 16:9 aspect ratios. Each window includes under monitor source IDs and dual tally indicators. Source IDs can be static or slaved to a routing switcher or under monitor display controller. Dedicated tally GPI inputs provide a simple means to interface the tally indicators. f Lack of scaling in quad split mode ensures top quality display f -bit high quality processing f Universal, high resolution RGBHV output f NTSC/PAL composite and Y only analog outputs f Selectable 4:3/16:9 aspect ratios f H / V / HV Delay f Underscan/Overscan modes f Source ID (UMD) display and dual tally indicator for each window f Test pattern generator included f Simple front panel control Dual Tally Indicators HV Delay Dual Source ID Under / Inside Front panel controls allow selection of quad-split or full screen modes, along with aspect ratio and underscan settings. Built-in video presence detection with on-screen reporting and GPI alarm outputs provide additional monitoring capability. f Optional remote control panel f RS-232 and RS-422/485 remote control f Independent frame synchronizer on every input f Accepts 525/625 input formats f Genlockable outputs ORDERING INFORMATION Model Description Tango 4:2:2 Quad Split Processor SDM-RK1 Dual Rack Mount Kit SDM-BK Half RU Blank Panel 1 2 COMP POWER KRCP-RK1 Kaleido Remote Control Rack Mount Kit 3 4 Y EXTERNAL CTRL RGBHV OUT 4:2:2 IN REF IN OUT UMD GPI I/O AC IN Tango Rear Panel
