Overview
The DVS-9000-C or DVS9000SF-C Switcher Processor
Pack is a high-performance, multi-function production
switcher processor for use in an SDTV-format DVS-9000
video switcher system. It has a wide range of application,
being usable in studios and the ENG and OB vans of large-
scale live production systems as well as in postproduction
editing systems.
Features
SDTV format support
This unit supports the 480i/59.94 and 576i/50 formats.
Highly expandable system configuration
By combining option boards, you can configure the
optimum system for your requirements, selecting the
number of inputs and outputs and the number of M/E
banks. The system’s flexibility guarantees its ability to
meet future expansion requirements.
High-performance keyers
Each M/E bank is equipped with four high-performance
keyers that provide the following standard functions.
Ability to apply transitions to keyers independently of
the background
Chroma key and color vector keys in each keyer
FineKey

, and key borders up to 8H
Color mixable matte generator available for both key fill
and key borders
Simultaneous output of four programs
Each M/E bank is able to handle four simultaneous
program outputs, with the ability to apply any of the four
keys to program output. This gives the system the ability
to handle a wide range of operating situations, for example
simultaneous transmission of four programs.
Powerful preview functions
The system supports simultaneous output of look-ahead
previews (next preview) and key previews, and also
transition previews.
Powerful frame memory functions
Up to 222 SDTV still frames can be stored in frame
memory, and up to eight frames can be called up for use
simultaneously. Frames are called up instantly, making it
possible to achieve animation effects. Image movement
and paint functions are also possible. Still pictures from
frame memory can be stored on the internal hard disk drive
of the center control panel, and still pictures can be
imported from and exported to PCs and other external
devices.
Four-channel DME
Installation of an optional DME board set provides four-
channel DME functionality. You can apply DME wipes,
processed keys, and a wide variety of other DME
functions.
Optional backup power supply
Installation of one or two optional HK-PSU04 Power
Supply Units provides backup power in addition to the
power supply unit (s) supplied as standard equipment. This
reduces the risk of power trouble and increases the
reliability of live broadcast systems.
