BrightEye 56 is a genlockable sync generator and test signal generator that can be used as either a slave or master reference generator. It can lock to house reference or it can lock to its own internal precision standard. BrightEye 56 is well suited for remote trucks, post, helicopters and fly packs. HD or SD SDI test signals or black with embedded audio is output on the SDI BNCs. Composite, Tri-level Sync and AES digital audio outputs are also provided. There are three user programmable outputs that are selectable between AES, LTC, Word Clock or 6 Hz Pulse. Analog audio and AES outputs provide tone or silence. Color black, bars, crosshatch, multiburst, and SDI checkfield (pathogenic) are just some of the signals simultaneously available on the SDI and analog composite outputs. The cyclops feature adds a motion element to the selected video test signal. An ID slate with user programmable text can overlay the test pattern.
