Chapter 15:
Live Video Input and Control
The DL.2 graphics engine can receive video from an external source or
its own integrated digital video camera equipped with an infared
illuminator to provide a direct digital video feed option.
Live Video Sources
Internal Camera
Every DL.2 is equipped with a internal
video camera and IR illuminator
capable of
capturing live video even in
blackout conditions.
The camera is mounted on the front
of the DL.2 near the projector iris to
point wherever the DL.2 fixture is
directed.
All of the camera functions can be
controlled via a DMX console (see
Controlling the Internal Camera Input on page 185).
Other Video Sources
A DL.2 fixture can also project other live video sources connected to the DL.2 fixture’s RGBHV,
VGA, or S-Video input ports. With S-Video input, the live video can be further enhanced and
manipulated by the DL.2's graphics engine.
Note: You can configure the graphics engine to capture video from an external
source or the internal camera but not from both at the same time.
