Description: Dave Jones Design's DVDplay series are devices for playing synchronized loops on multiple video DVD players.DVDplay series of intelligent DVD synchronizers are small programmable devices that control multiple Pioneer industrial DVD video players in repeating loops. They support all three of Pioneer's past models, DVD-V7200 (discontinued), DVD-V7300D (sold in Europe and Australia), and the DVD-V7400 (sold in USA). The synchronizers are available in various configurations to control any number of DVD players. They allow multi-image installations to start all of the DVD players at exactly the same time, and stay in sync with each other for the duration of the program. The DVDplay modules can be used to play the multi-channel show in a continuous loop, with the players being re-synchronized at the start of each loop. They can also be hooked up to an external trigger device, like a switch or a sensor, so that the show starts on cue. The DVDplay devices do not require an external computer to control the DVDs, they have small powerful computers built into them that control the Pioneer DVD players directly. An IBM PC or compatible is used to program the DVDplays with the starting and ending frame numbers, and any custom configuration information. You can also program individual channels to not synchronize with the rest, to disable them or in case you want to have several free-running loops being played on certain players. Once this information is programmed into the DVDplay, the computer is no longer needed. All information is stored in non-volatile EEPROM memory automatically using the supplied software. This information can be changed at any time by connecting a computer again and running the software. The DVDplay is not a general purpose controller used by a computer to run a scripted or constantly changing show. It simply plays a loop on several DVD players over and over again. It must be disconnected from the players to program it and once it is in use it does not have any connection to a computer. The DVDplays all come with standard international power supplies that can be switched between 110 and 220 volts from the back panel, and use standard international IEC power cords. They have 15 pin D-sub connectors for connecting to the Pioneer DVD players, and come with one cable per channel. They also have a reset switch on the front that can be used to re-start all channels of the synchronizer in order to start the show over again manually. An optional black burst output can be installed that will guarantee frame accurate synchronization with the Pioneer players. Without a black burst reference being fed to the players, the DVDplays can only guarantee synchronizing within plus or minus one frame. This is fine for most applications, but for those critical applications, the black burst option is available. With the black burst option the DVDplay is frame accurate. The Black-Burst output can also be used in situations where a switcher will route the images from a few players to a large number of monitors and some of the monitors need to have black images. We do not supply the BNC cables you will need to connect the black burst between the synchronizer and the players. You will need one BNC to BNC cable per player. Previously an option, now standard on all DVDplay synchronizers, is the "Network" connector that allows multiple DVDplays to be connected in a synchronizer network. This is a special network, exclusive to the DVDplay and LasrPlay synchronizers, that allow multiple boxes to be connected together to simulate a larger synchronizer. All synchronizers to be connected must have this connector. The network connector can also be used as an external trigger. By shorting the center contact to ground, the next cycle of synchronization will not start. When the players are cued up and this connection is released, the cycle will start. At this time the DVDplays are only available for Pioneer industrial DVD players. These are the most common and most powerful industrial DVD players available. The DVDplay synchronizers do not work with Philips, Panasonic, or any other brand of DVD player. They also do not work with the Pioneer consumer models. Only the industrial models. The DVDplay synchronizers will work with all commercial DVDs and DVD-R discs that comply with the DVD-Video format.Specifications Power Supply Voltage:110/220 volts 50/60 HzFuse:5x20 mm, 0.315 ampDVD Format:DVD-Video (NTSC or PAL)Compatable Players:Pioneer DVD-V7200 (discontinued) Pioneer DVD-V7300D (sold in Europe and Australia) Pioneer DVD-V7400 (sold in USA and Japan)Connectors: Power:IECDVD:DB-15 maleExpansion/Trigger: RCABlack Burst Out:BNC(optional)Speeds/Times: (approximate) Power-up:7 secondsDisc spin-up:5-10 secondsSynchronization: 0.5 secondsRewind:1-10 secondsControls:Reset switch Power On/Off (only rackmount versions)Accessories Supplied:Instruction booklet IEC power cable (with American connector) 15 pin DVD cables 6 feet long (one per channel) Programming software (for PC only) Programming cable Rack mounting brackets (only on rackmount models)Options Available:Black Burst output (NTSC/PAL) The price of the new device is $1850, our price is $665 Thank you for your interest in our product and our offers!
