Introduction

The RTV series acquisition board is designed without compromise
for security and video surveillance applications as a PC-based
multiple channel digital video recorder.
This 32-bit/64bit, 33MHz/66MHz PCI/cPCI/PMC bus frame grab-
ber simultaneously captures four video analog streams in real-
time. It accepts standard composite color (PAL, NTSC) or mono-
chrome video formats (CCIR, EIA).
The square-pixel and broadcast resolutions are programmable
(640 x 480 or 768 x 576). Before images are transferred into the
PC's memory, the resolution can be scaled down using selectable
ratios.
Arbitrary cropping to regions of interest is supported. The RTV
series generates bitmaps in all popular color formats such as
RGB.
System integrators will benefit from a watchdog timer for fault-tol-
erant applications and from the easy-to-use standard connectors.
