CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION<br />
Introduction<br />
The ES/2 synchroniser is a multi-processor machine controller capable of interfacing with ATR,<br />
VTR and film machines as well as several forms of controllers.<br />
The ES/2 has two AK ESbus ports each of which contains an RS422 communications port. The<br />
ESbus ports carry<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
the Timeline - a system wide reference signal<br />
a TLext line - to indicate presence or absence of a timeline signal<br />
a frame bus - used to distribute a video sync locked signal<br />
a mute bus - or system locked line.<br />
The general purpose parallel machine port is capable of<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
issuing transport commands<br />
reading tallies<br />
reading tach<br />
generating pulse information for film machines<br />
generating a DC or FM servo control signal.<br />
Two additional communication ports are<br />
<br />
<br />
an RS422/232 machine serial control port allowing control of serial video machines<br />
a diagnostics port allowing remote interrogation of the system.<br />
The ES/2 also features<br />
<br />
<br />
A flexible timecode reader and generator.<br />
A reference input capable of decoding video syncs or square wave pulses.<br />
