882D Video Test Instrument

 Key Features and Benefits

  • Image Control Tool to fine tune deep color images (882E only).
  • DTV ready–Pre-programmed standard DTV formats are ready for immediate use. Digital outputs support YCbCr color encoding. Analog outputs support tri-level composite sync and YPbPr.
  • Built-in formats–Over 350 popular video formats are built-in including VESA, ATSC, EIA-770.x, SMPTE 170, 240, 259, 267, 274, 292, 293, 295, 296, Australian, EIA/CEA-861D, NTSC and PAL.
  • Central administration–Update and configure all networked instruments from a single computer.
  • Network control–Fully control instrument from any network location with web browser or Telnet client.
  • Graphics SDK–Create complex patterns based on your specifications using C++ software development kit.
  • HDMI–Full single-link HDMI 1.3. DVI HDCP production keys for HDMI output.
  • Easy to use–Access powerful features easily using intuitive user interface.
  • Multiple configurations–Save and restore different instrument configurations for different applications.
  • Local pattern storage–Store multiple custom images (.bmp, .jpg, and .png) images in instrument.
  • Self-calibrating–Analog video outputs are automatically adjusted against an internal precision reference. This assures video levels that are precise and reliable. Signal levels are auto-adjusted individually.
  • Probe–Trigger a scope or inspection camera using the probe signal. Position a pulse anywhere in the frame.
  • PC Card–Clone one generator to another using a standard CompactFlash card.
  • Auxiliary Channel Analyzer (ACA)–The ACA enables you to monitor DDC, HDCP, CEC and EDID transactions for HDMI and HDCP, Link Layer and EDID transactions over the DisplayPort auxiliary channels.
  • IEEE-488-GPIB (IEEE-488) interface. interface.
  • RS-232-Industry standard serial interface.
