Specifications

Broad Scan™by Analog Way is a
Broadcast and Professional Computer to
Video Scan Converter. Fitted with Digital DVI
and Analog RGB input, it converts Workstation,
PC or Mac graphic images up to
1600x1200@60Hz (1920x1200 RB) into NTSC
or PAL video. Each computer input has its own
monitor loop through output for the connection of
a control display.
Broad Scan features a powerful broadcast
Genlock through a NTSC or PAL Black Burst.
Genlock input is fitted with a loop through output
allowing to daisy chain devices. The user can
adjust phase and subcarrier delay according to a
specific installation requirements. All Genlock
timings meet broadcast ITU/SMPTE standards.
Broad Scan output formats are:
• NTSC – 525i @ 60 & 59.94 Hz – 15.735 kHz -
ITU / RS170-A
• PAL – 625i @ 50 Hz – 15.625 kHz – CCIR
Broad Scan outputs different signals at the same
time in one selected output format NTSC or PAL:
one YUV or RGB, one S.Video and one
Composite Video signals are available simulta-
neously.
Broad Scan also outputs Luma Key signal. The
Luma key signal comes in the same format as
the output and perfectly timed. In addition, a
Frame Lock output allows synchronizing an
external device frame rate such as a graphic
card.
Broad Scan features real time conversion with

high performance Image Processing. User
adjustments offer an Anti-Flicker filter to signifi-
cantly reduce flickering of the interlaced TV out-
puts, as well as 2D Sharpness, RGB level and
Black level. It converts single wire computer type
signal into black and white video image just by
setting a menu. The state of the art high speed
hardware FPGA allows aspect ratio control and a
wide linear or non linear zoom capability up to
1000%. In addition, a new highlighted “zoom fin-
der” is provided to preview the actual part of the
picture to be zoomed (H, V and H&V simulta-
neously).
Broad Scan is designed to be User Friendly
thanks to many direct access functions such as
Freeze, Black, Under/Over scan, Aspect Ratio,
Zoom position and size. It also has easy to use
and efficient menus on a clear bright blue LCD
screen. LCD continuously displays Input and
Output status during operation.
Broad Scan includes Computer input format
memory: Up to 16 user presets are stored in the
device corresponding to 16 different input for-
mats. The exact adjustments of the frequently
used formats are instantly recalled which makes
the Broad Scan ideal and very useful for multi-
computer applications or rental.
