Horita GPI-50 TC Based Dual General Purpose Interface

Description

Time code "coincidence detector" features two separately programmable GPI "trigger" outputs which occur when the input time code matches that of previously set GPI IN and OUT times. -- Use in video production and playback systems to operate switchers, mixers, initiate VCR recording or playback, operate strobe lights, trigger scientific experiments, etc. -- Pushbutton switches to "MARK", "TRIM", or "SET" IN and OUT times, plus a search speed SMPTE time code reader -- "TRIM +/-" and "SET IN/OUT" functions allow times to be adjusted by +/- 1-frame, 1-second, or 1-minute, or set to any arbitrary value -- "On Screen" display readout shows GPI selected, enabled/disabled, event duration, IN/OUT times marked, and relationship of times to present (tape) time -- Separate ENABLE and DISABLE for each GPI event. GPI-1 repeats every hour, GPI-2 repeats every 24 hours -- Output signals can be either a pulldown to ground for the duration of the event, or a pulse at the IN and OUT times -- All times and selections stored in non-volatile memory
