TSCA-189, SAP Generator
The new msi 189 SAP/Stereo/Video
Receiver from Modulation Sciences is the perfect companion for your SAP Generator.
Whether you are mandated to deliver Descriptive Video or not, the msi 189 is
the professional choice. The new high quality receiver provides simultaneous
off-air reception for SAP, Stereo and Monaural audio via balanced, line level
XLR connectors. Our state-of-the-art design uses the most advanced technology
to bring you ultra reliable reception of your off-air audio and video signals.
The
msi 189 is an affordable, self-contained professional receiver.
Ideal for off-air monitoring of BTSC stereo audio and the
program audio carried on the SAP channel. The msi 189 is not
a repackaged consumer module. A video output suitable for driving
picture monitors is also available, as well as a wideband composite
aural output.
Non-Intercarrier Aural Reception
The msi 189 does not depend on intercarrier detection for
recovery of the BTSC stereo and SAP aural channels. This
renders it completely immune to ICPM. SAW Filters protect
the aural signal from video, especially chroma interference,
offering freedom from the annoying buzz that sometimes
accompanies contrasty scenes. Non-intercarrier aural detection
also extends coverage of the aural channels to well beyond
that of usable picture coverage.
Frequency Agile
The msi 189 features a stable synthesized tuner which receives
any North American TV channel from 2 through 69. The operating
channel is selected by adding or removing plastic jumpers
inside the receiver. Internal tuning is efficient for discouraging "channel
surfing."
Diversity Reception
The msi 189 includes two antenna inputs. The antenna
is selected dynamically on the basis of minimum multipath
and maximum signal strength. This switching is extremely
fast and inaudible. A front panel switch overides the
diversity feature and holds the unit on the "A" antenna
input. This feature is perfect for use in high-multipath
urban centers.
DTMF Signaling
Modulation Sciences incorporated DTMF signaling for
remote control applications. The unit transmits standard
DTMF tones over the SAP channel. Closures for 12 standard
DTMF tones are wired to the auxiliary connector on
the rear panel. |
