Differences in the series

To include various custom features, multiple I/O modules are integrated to debut the GOLDEN EAG-
LE series. All types based on the unique Eagle or Falcon broadcast interface from TAMUZ.

GOLDEN EAGLE Features

The GOLDEN EAGLE series is equipped with a selected 4:3 or wide screen TFT panel from NEC,
AUO, ID-tech, LG-Philips, CMO, Sharp or Samsung production line. These panel types are state-of-
the-art high resolution panels which are available for the broadcast application at the market.
The HCM 1xx DB type has serial digital video signal (SDI) inputs with looped output and multiple ana-
log video inputs as standard.
The HCM 1xx VB type has multiple analog video inputs as standard. All units have additionally a ana-
log graphic signal (VGA) input as standard. Optionally a DVI inputs is available.
All GOLDEN EAGLE series monitors may be equipped with an IP addressable interface port to allow
remote communication from a PC network, see MRC software. Additionally a standard GPI/O port for
closed contact remote is equipped. The monitors are DC voltage powered by an attached or external
power supply. The housing is made of grey powder coated aluminium.

ISO Product Quality

For the production of TAMUZ GOLDEN EAGLE series video monitors LCD panels are used which
complies with the standard ISO 13406-2, error-class 1 or 2, only. This ISO standard 13406-2 defines
the scales for ergonomic and picture quality.
The LCD panel manufactures itself (like AU, CMO, LG-Philips, NEC, Samsung, Sharp or Toshiba) don't
guarantees absolute any errorlessness and don't guarantees that the LCD panels are free of sticking
effects.

Pixel Errors

Following limited values which may not exceed are valid.
ISO 13406-2 Typ 1
Class I 0
Class II 2
Class III 5
Class IV 50
Error-type #1 describes errors by a complete bright (white) pixel, error-type #2 describes errors by a
complete dark (black) pixel, error-type #3 describes errors by defective sub-pixels of the colors red,
green and blue, which are completely bright or dark.
A single LCD pixel is built by a set of three sub-pixels, one of red, green and blue.
Error class I contains highly selected panels with no pixel error anyway. Panels within this class are ra-
re and very high priced. Panels from the error class II are the most common selection for high quality
industry applications. The error class III defines the mass production selection for IT applications. TFT
panels related to the error class IV are not useful for a LCD monitor at all.
