At the heart of the IMAGE VIDEO Tally System is the TSI-1000 Tally System Interface. The TSI-1000 collects information from signal outing and processing equipment to operate displays and tallies as directed by its internal configuration information. The TSI-1000 is configured from a Windows PC running the Tally System Console program. Once configured, the TSI-1000 continues to operate the tally system with or without the PC connected. Other TSI-1000 features include:
All electronics housed in two rack unit frame Wide range input power supply removable from front of unit Six RS-422 / RS-485 ports Four RJ11 remote display ports Two high speed coaxial BNC ports Two RS-232 ports Ethernet port One longitudinal time code port Optional redundant power supply plugs in to same frame Front-mounted tri-color LED's indicate status of TSI-1000 ports and power supplies Two or more TSI-1000 units connected together through their Ethernet ports can extend system capacity or make independent local tally systems while still sharing remote information
