Note - This listing is for an Orion-styled TBC2. This module functions identically to the Gen3 TBC2 except that it can also do sync via power bus as well as RCA, and features the older styled graphic panel.
TBC2 is a dual video input module for your LZX modular system. Supported are Composite, Component & S-Video inputs capable of SD/HD video decoding and frame synchronization.
- SD/HD Video Sync Generator supporting NTSC, PAL, 480p, 576p, 720p50, 720p5994, 720p60, 1080i50, 1080i5994, 1080i60, 1080p2398, 1080p24, 1080p25, 1080p2997, 1080p30 sync formats
- Dual SD/HD Video Decoders supporting NTSC, PAL, 480p, 576p, 720p50, 720p5994, 720p60, 1080i50, 1080i5994, 1080i60, 1080p2398, 1080p24, 1080p25, 1080p2997, 1080p30 input sources
- VESA/VGA input up to 1024x768 with optional 10HP VGA+SCART expander.
- Playback of still images and looping sequences loaded from frontpanel MicroSD card slot
- SD color correction controls for each input: Hue, Saturation, Contrast & Brightness
- Auto upscaling and downscaling modes for both inputs
- MIDI input for remote parameter control
Submodules
DECODER
TBC2 has two input decoder submodules. Each supports Component (YPbPr/RGsB), Composite (CVBS) and S-Video (YC) inputs. With the addition of the VGA/SCART expander, it supports VGA (RGBHV) and SCART (CVBS/RGsB) inputs.
GENLOCK
TBC2 has one genlock submodule. This module controls the timing of the output encoders. It is a full featured Sync Generator with front and rear outputs for video sync.
ENCODER
TBC2 has two output encoder submodules. Each supports Patchable 1V (YRGB) outputs. The output video standard follows the setting of the Genlock Module.
MEDIA
TBC2 has one media submodule. This module is capable of loading still images (JPG, PNG, BMP) from the front MicroSD card socket. The output video standard follows the setting of the Genlock Module.
To use the media module, copy your images into a subfolder of a compatible MicroSD card. For example:
/media/folder/frame1.JPG
We recommend preparing media in a size matching your system's output video standard in JPG or PNG formats. For example, for NTSC video, prepare media at 720 (W) x 486 (H) dimensions.
Always eject or insert your MicroSD card only when your system is powered off. Keep remote backups of any data on your MicroSD card.
The maximum number of images per media folder is determined by the current output video standard, with a minimum of 24 frames in 1920 (W) x 1080 (H) media sizes.
RAMP GENERATOR
TBC2 has one Ramp Generator submodule. The output video standard follows the setting of the Genlock Module. The Ramp Generator is a low speed software renderer designed to generate programmable gradients and other patterns. After any settings change, this module will render a new output frame.
