9590

SDI Digital Graticule Generator

9590-DCP Desktop Control PanelThe 9590 is an easy to use, one rack unit, dual standard digital video graticule generator that keys various alignment markers over a standard definition video picture. These alignment markers facilitate film transfer, post production and quality control measurements relating to picture location for various film aspect ratios, safe action and safe title areas as well as picture center.

All of the functions of the 9590 are available from the control panel or one of two remote control panels. Choose from the many factory programmed presets or define your own. The 9590 allows for multiple user defined presets that can be re-called and re-defined at any time.
