controls and remote control via RS-232/422 provide the
user with the ability to view real-time multiple images
in various pre-configured displays. Optional software
allows the user configuration of displays, and multi-system
control, while options also exist for in-picture audio
monitoring of SDI embedded audio. Standard alarm features
