Page 4: Introduction
Introduction 1 Introduction The ENC116 is a 10-bit broadcast quality Serial Digital to Analogue Composite converter. It accepts either 625 or 525 line input, with automatic detection. There is one reclocked serial digital output and six analogue PAL/NTSC outputs. The available outputs depend on the rear module used. -
Page 5: Frame Packing Density
Frame packing density The ENC116 is a 100mm x 266mm module, which fits in the three standard frames and can be integrated with any boards from the company’s full product range. It may be used with the single slot RM01 and RM23 rear connectors, the double slot RM18 rear connector and the quadruple slot RM02 rear connector. -
Page 6: Statesman Pc Control
Running Statesman for the first time The Statesman PC Control System may be run from the Crystal Vision programs folder via the Start menu or by double-clicking on the Crystal Vision.exe file in the installed program directory. When the program runs it will require licence information and an administrator name and password. -
