The DVS-7200’s image quality, superb keying, timeline control, and overall versatility pinpoints a broad range of applications, including studio production, post, and remote broadcast requirements. But above all, the DVS-7200 delivers its full range of features in a streamlined two M/E format — with all the input flexibility, customization capability, integrated performance, and ease of use that you’ve come to expect from Sony digital switchers.

DVS-7200 Feature Overview BKGD PRIOR This chapter outlines the DVS-7200’s features, and includes discussions of the functionality and benefits of the switcher’s basic and “power” tools. Concise explanations relating to the importance of each feature are provided. The following sections are included: •...
And whether the switcher is large-scale, mid-range, or compact in size, one important factor is constant across the product line — Sony switchers have the power to make complex tasks simple. That benchmark principle holds true with the new DVS-7200. Here are just a few examples: •...
Input Flexibility The DVS-7200 can be equipped with 12, 24, or 36 primary inputs and up to four component analog chroma key inputs. For flexibility, all SDI inputs can be switched (from the panel) between component digital (4:2:2) and composite digital (4fsc) operations.
Effect Keyers and DSK In the DVS-7200, two powerful effect keyers are standard (per M/E), and up to two optional DSKs (Down Stream Keyer) can also be added. A variety of creative key “types” can be selected, as follows: •...
— without getting lost in menus. Key Edge Adjustment One aspect of the DVS-7200’s high quality key processing is the ability to fine tune and optimize the key signal — independent of the “fill.” Through the use of over- sampling, the key signal’s width can be modified in sub-pixel units.
In the time it used to take to manually re-patch a switcher’s input configuration, on the DVS-7200 you can recall a snapshot that re-maps crosspoints, sets up the M/Es and initiates a transition — all with one button — making complex tasks simple.
The DVS-7200 offers superb features, and a little peace-of-mind, too. Power Tools This section outlines the features that operators value the most on the DVS-7200. Power tools not only simplify the daily job, but they add to that all-important category of creativity — the area in which a switcher’s artistic and aesthetic capabilities are greater than the sum of its parts.
DME control panel. The DVS-7200 reverses this trend with the addition of two optional switcher panels: the BKDS-7030 Key Frame Control Panel and the BKDS-7031 DME Control Panel.
To this creative end, the DVS-7200 has provision for up to eight internal dual color matte generators — for Key-1 edge and Key-2 edge (for each M/E plus DSK), in addition to Wipe border and Color background (for each M/E).
In fact, every signal that enters the switcher or is internally generated — can be placed on an Aux bus. The DVS-7200’s Aux bus feature is simple and logical. You can sometimes predict the signals you’ll need before an edit session or production, but once you’re in the midst of it, there’s a confidence in knowing that everything is accessible via the...
This action also delays the actual video switch by a certain number of fields — allowing the background and foreground to switch in sync. In operation, the GPI Link can be advanced or delayed from the initial “press” of the switcher crosspoint. Features and Benefits • • 13 DVS-7200 • Product Guide...

DVS-7200 Configuration To assist with configuration planning, this chapter describes the DVS-7200’s system components. In addition, a convenient quotation request form is included to assist with pre-sales planning and to simplify the DVS-7200 ordering process. The following sections are included: •...
36 available inputs may be configured as composite analog. Refer to the “Input Configuration” section below for details. In the “Installation Guide” chapter, refer to the “DVS-7200 Chassis” section for a chassis diagram and list of chassis specifications.
SONY Input Configuration This section describes the input boards that can be added to a DVS-7200 system. • Three slots are provided for primary input boards (select any combination of the BKDS-7102 and BKDS 7110 boards). Up to three boards can be installed, for a maximum of 36 inputs.
SONY Output Configuration This section describes the output boards that can be added to a DVS-7200. The switcher has a total of 19 outputs (comprised of individual outputs and “groups”) that can be configured individually: • One Program group (four individual outputs, configured as one) •...
SONY Control Panel Options This section describes the control panel options that can be added to a DVS-7200. In the “System Interconnection Charts” section, refer to the “DVS-7200 Control Panel Connections Chart” for an illustration of DVS-7200 control panel connections.
RS-422 interconnect cables have a maximum length of 100 meters. BZS-7360 Remote Key Control Software The BZS-7360 Remote Key Control Software is required for operating the BKDS- 7060 Remote Key Control Panel. 20 • • Configuration Guide DVS-7200 • Product Guide...
The BKDS-8062 Auxiliary Control panel installs with the BKDS-8060 Remote Panel Interface unit. Up to 14 combined BKDS-8062 plus BKDS-8060 units can be connected to the DVS-7200 chassis for remote control of Aux buses 1 through 14. The DVS-7200 supports five different configurations of crosspoint assignments for the BKDS-7015 control panel and BKDS-8062 —...
SONY BKDS-2010 M/E Auxiliary Control Panel The BKDS-2010 M/E Auxiliary Control Panel effectively turns the DVS-7200 into two one-M/E switchers. The Auxiliary Control Panel (same as the DVS-2000C’s Control Panel) connects to the processor chassis using an RS-422 interconnect. Note that RS-422 interconnect cables are not provided. In the “Options and Upgrades”...
Frame Memory Adaptor Board The BKDS-7445 Frame Memory Adaptor Board works in conjunction with the BKDS-2041 Basic Frame Memory Board to provide two frames of storage. The adaptor board permits the BKDS-2041 to be installed in the DVS-7200 chassis. BKDS-2070 Enhanced Wipe Option The BKDS-2070 Enhanced Wipe Option provides additional wipe patterns such as the Matrix, Heart, Star, and Diamond Dust wipes.
Control Port Expansion Board The BKDS-7001 Control Port Expansion Board (with mounting hardware and interconnect cables) adds an additional four RS-422 control ports to the DVS-7200 system. The board is required if you wish to control two or more channels of DME effects from the switcher panel, and is also required for the Peripheral II interface.
Up to 4 relay states may be set for each tally function. The BKDS-7700 also provides an “S-Bus” interface to the Sony DVS “B” series routing switchers. In this configuration, the “B” series is accessed directly from the DVS-7200’s display for changing primary switcher crosspoints.
