As formats and interface requirements frequently change, the Athena scaler is built to be adaptable providing superior signal clarity, while maintaining a low processing latency of only one frame. Simple setup and advanced control. Whether you are saving a setup for later, or need to copy a setup to multiple units, the incorporated USB back up and restore functionality makes configuration simple and efficient. ImagePRO-II is easily controlled via the front panel, browser or a mobile device. Featuring the fastest automatic source acquisition available, the ImagePRO-II excels in automatically acquiring and locking to any input signal. On the output side, ImagePRO-II can also automatically determine the format of the attached display optimizing its output resolution to match the display’s resolution. Shock tested, roadie approved. As the ImagePRO-II is built for the live event industry it has been designed with the road in mind. With features like field replaceable DVI connectors, 1 RU form factor and professional EtherconTM connector ImagePRO-II supports the demanding environment of any live event. Five models. ImagePRO-II is offered in five models: standard, dual output, audio, dual output and audio and Jr. The standard model offers all of the advanced features you need and expect to find in ImagePRO. In addition to the standard features, the dual output model can convert independently one input signal to two separate outputs at different resolutions. Furthermore, the dual model offers stereoscopic 3D conversion capability. The audio option allows for a wide range of dis-embedding and embedding options between the HDMI, DisplayPort and SDI signals and the Analog and Digital AES signals available on the DB-25 Audio board. ImagePRO-II Jr was awarded as ‘Best video scaler’ by Commercial Integrator magazine.
