1.4 The Screen management system

The E2 Lite presentation system
Raising the bar for live screen management, the Event Master screen management system provides superior
image quality, exceptional input and output density, great expandability, and purpose built durability.
Supporting native 4K input (and output resolutions up to 1920x1200) with up to 60 Hz refresh rates and 4:4:4
color, it is the most modular system available to manage blended projectors with refresh rates up to 60 Hz and
full range color sampling. Being a truly versatile system, the Event Master offers a large range of scaled AUX
outputs and PGM outputs for full show control with a single box.
Native 4K input and HD output
With native 4K input and output resolutions up to 1920x1200 at 60 Hz, the Event master devices provide
impressive pixel processing power. Whether native or scaled inputs, two connectors or four, this HDCP-
compliant system manages it all.
With up to 26 inputs and 12 outputs, the E2 Lite system offers full show control, including 32 independent PIP
layers, 12 outputs and a dedicated two channel Multi-viewer. Thanks to its linkable chassis, the E2 Lite can
expand beyond its single-chassis capacity to a second E2 Lite chassis, without the need for additional external
processing and routing to distribute the signals (requires optional link cards and cables).
Simple servicing and control
The Event Master devices come with a straightforward cross-platform user interface that provides
touchscreen ergonomics. As the presets are stored on the chassis, it enables easy control via third-party
systems. Multiple users can control a system simultaneously, and the API allows third-party developers to
create custom control programs and interfaces. Thanks to their modular designs, users can simply add a new
input or output card to support future signal interfaces. This modularity also ensures great serviceability, as
users can easily swap a specific input or output card in the case of damage, without needing to ship or replace
the entire box.
Designed for life on the road
Designed for the live event industry, the rugged Event Master devices feature a steel chassis that's able to
withstand the challenging conditions of life on the road. What's more, they offer screen control in a compact
form factor of only four rack units, which makes them easy to ship and install. And thanks to their modular
cards and dual redundant power supplies, the Event Master devices are extremely reliable and easy to service
in the field.
