Applications
Features
The RM-3358W is a color video monitor with a 3RU front panel containing three 5.8" Widescreen Active Matrix TFT LCD
displays (16:9 or 4:3 aspect ratio) . Each LCD is back lit with a cold cathode fluorescent tube. The LCD’s are mounted in a
rotatable cylinder, which allows the operator to rotate the display array ±55° in the vertical plane to provide optimum
operator viewing angles. Each LCD display has separate on-screen controls for brightness, contrast, color, tint (NTSC only),
and a number of other parameters.
The standard RM3358W unit features two composite analog (CVBS) video inputs per LCD display for a total of six inputs
(NTSC and PAL autosensing). One of the two inputs (per display) is selected using a front panel A/B toggle switch. Each of the
eight CVBS video inputs has a passive loop-through on a BNC connector and a 75 Ohm/Hi-Z termination select switch.
SDI signals may be monitored with installation of a field-installable option (one per display). There are two models of optional SDI
Input Module; the RMSDI-1 and RMSDI-2. The RMSDI-2 features an SDI input, a reclocked SDI output, a converted (from
SDI) CVBS output, an SDI Lock indication LED, and autosensing of NTSC/PAL signal formats. The RMSDI-1 offers a
somewhat reduced feature set for cost savings and is identical except that it lacks the SDI Output and requires manually setting a
switch for NTSC/PAL formatting. Selection of the SDI Input Module(s) is accomplished using the appropriate front panel A/B switch.
Each display also features a tri-color (red/green/yellow) tally LED indicator. A DB25 connector on the rear panel is used to interface
the RM-3358W with your facilities’ tally system. An optional field-installable audio indication module (AIM-1) can be plugged into
the tally connector in order to use the RM-3358W tally LEDs for indication of audio presence and loss.
