The DIG200 is an integrated logo generator and down stream keyer on a single Series 200 eurocard. It is designed
to insert logos or station idents onto the outgoing picture in a serial digital video (SDV) installation. The card can
store 6 'idents' which are images that can be 256 x 256 pixels for 'bugs' or 720 x 80 lines for text idents. A simple
text generator with a fixed font provides a 7th ident of up to 20 characters; several text strings can be stored and
recalled. Each ident is stored as foreground and matte, it is linear keyed onto the program input so it can be
semi-transparent and faded in and out. A CPU card is required in the frame to load the images, set their position and
enter text, this also provides the RS232/422 ports for automation and remote control operation.

Programming
Idents can be 'grabbed' (programmed) from the SDV input of the CPU card, this allows direct transfer from
graphics systems. Foreground and matte (key) are grabbed seperately. The SDV program passes
through to the main output of the ident card while programming is in progress (active bypass). Each
image can be positioned anywhere on the screen and may be moved around after being stored on the
ident card. Once programmed the ident card may be used without the CPU card in the frame.

Keying
Keying is done internally with a linear keyer. Transition time can be set for timed fades of the logo.
Fades can be triggered by GPIs or via automation or remote control. Embedded audio and VBI data
present in the incoming SDV signal are passed transparently.
