    DPS ES-2200 General Description The DPS ES-2200 is a 2-slot expansion system intended to accommodate any combination of up to two DPS Personal Series or MicroSYNC plug-in cards. The functions of the DPS Personal Series cards installed in the system can be operated by the front panel control or by software using the rear panel RS-232 connector.

  • Page 10: Es-2200T Configuration Options

    ES-2200T Configuration Options It is possible to install a single card – TBC, MicroSYNC, V-Scope or Routing Switcher in the ES-2200T chassis. In such a case, the card should be installed in the Unit 1 position unless it is a V-Scope. If it is a V-Scope, it should always go in the Unit 2 position.
  • Page 11: Es-2200T Card Installation

    ES-2200T Card Installation Remove the carrier plates from the backs of the cards. Save the screws to mount the cards in the chassis. With the power off, remove the top cover of the chassis. If the card to be installed in the unit 1 position is a Personal V-Scope, place DIP Switch 1 in the DOWN position, and all others UP.

    TBC Card Controls Push buttons on the ES-2200T unit can have up to three control functions associated with them. Primary functions are in Black. Secondary functions are in Blue. Shift functions are in Italic. Proc Amp Proc Amp controls are applicable to TBC cards. The Proc Amp controls are VIDEO LEVEL, BLACK LEVEL, CHROMA LEVEL, and HUE LEVEL.
  • Page 17: Memory Functions

    Memory Functions These functions are shift functions in italics below the Proc Amp controls. The ES-2200T stores all current settings, such as Proc-amp levels and system timing in its own non-volatile memory. The memory is automatically updated once every three seconds. These settings are automatically recalled and transferred to the resident TBC cards on power up, so that system timing and Proc-amp levels are not lost.
  • Page 18: Balance

    Balance The Color Balance controls are labeled BALANCE on the front panel. RED and BLUE are primary functions. FILM MD is a shift function below BLUE in italics. These controls are used to change the white balance of the processed video signal on an installed TBC card.
  • Page 19: Timing

    Timing The SYSTEM TIMING or GENLOCK controls are used to modify the timing of the video outputs from the installed TBC cards so that correct system timing is maintained when the unit is used in conjunction with other video processing equipment.
  • Page 20: Tbc Configuration

    TBC Configuration The TBC card can be configured with a number of setup modes. In order to change a setup mode, you must perform the following steps: Choose the ES-2200 channel containing the TBC card using the UNIT 1/ UNIT 2 SELECT button. Place the TBC card into CONFIGURATION SELECT mode by pressing the NTSC/S-VHS INPUT button so that the NTSC and S-VID LEDs are flashing In CONFIGURATION mode, each button takes on a new function.

  • Page 48: Chapter 5: Remote Control

    Chapter 5: Remote Control Note: This section applies to the ES-2200T and the ES-2200S There are three possible methods of remote controlling the cards installed inside an ES-2200 (or multiple ES-2200 units). The first method is to use DPS developed computer software and to remote control the ES-2200 from a Personal computer or an Amiga computer.
  • Page 49 the resident TBC, MicroSYNC and V-Scope cards. The AMIGA can control a maximum number of eight TBC and MicroSYNC cards. The IBM PC can control a maxiumum of thirty-two TBC and MicroSYNC cards. Any V-SCOPE command sent by the computer will affect all of the V-Scopes installed in all of the ES-2200s that are linked together. There are three rules that must be followed when setting a card address inside an ES-2200: The Address of the ES-2200 must be set to the same address as the card installed in the UNIT 1 slot.
  • Page 50: Card Addressing

    Card Addressing When installing multiple cards in a system, you must establish a unique address for each card. The software control program uses this address to direct commands to individual cards. The table below indicates how the switch settings correspond to buttons on the control screen. If you have only one addressable card in the system, leave these five switches in the UP position.
