The FlashPoint 4XL Pro is a very high performance frame grabber designed to capture and display full frame Composite, S-Video and RGB color video in real time to VGA display memory. It is available in both PCI and AGP 4X form factors. It was specifically designed with features for OEMs, VARs and system integrators designing systems that require high quality video acquisition in a single slot, easy to install solution.
The FlashPoint 4XL Pro frame grabber incorporates an on board 143 MHz 128 bit S3 3D graphics accelerator and 16 MBytes of fast SGRAM. Its 128 bit memory interface is capable of display resolutions up to 1600 x 1200 at up to 100 Hz. The FlashPoint 4XL Pro frame grabber supports non destructive overlay of text and graphics on live video. This allows applications that require crosshairs, selector boxes or other objects to be displayed on live video while the underlying video is cleanly captured or displayed. Its independent control of the graphics and video color depth allows efficient memory usage that supports the simultaneous display and capture of high resolution video (up to 768 x 576) on a high resolution desktop (up to 1280 x 1024). The FlashPoint 4XL Pro frame grabber multiplexes up to 16 composite or 8 S-Video or 4 RGB video inputs in both NTSC and PAL formats. The RGB and composite video inputs are digitized using separate A/D and PLL circuitry and support the capture of non interlaced video from progressive scan cameras. A programmable Look Up Table (LUT) is available on both the RGB and composite input channels. Video is displayed full screen or in a resizable window and can be adjusted (offset and gain) to the desired levels through software controlled video amplifiers. Very low pixel jitter ensures accurate representation of horizontal detail. The FlashPoint 4XL Pro frame grabber allows for simultaneous display of VGA and video by incorporating an on board video encoder. Video outputs can be RGB, composite or S-Video in both NTSC and PAL formats. It is software selectable from the entire VGA desktop, a region of interest or just the live video. Programmable video parameters such as horizontal and vertical size and position, flicker filter and scaling are supported. To control external devices or cameras, the FlashPoint 4XL Pro frame grabber has been designed with multiple I/O or camera interface controls. A software controlled, optically isolated contact closure circuit enables the triggering of a strobe for synchronizing illumination to a digitized video frame. A general purpose input trigger, along with two TTL output triggers, allows for the synchronization of image acquisition to external events. An on board camera interface allows for the input of the horizontal sync, vertical sync and pixel clock from the camera, thus allowing for precise capture. An on board sync generator provides for genlock of external cameras. FlashPoint 4XL Pro frame grabber also incorporates on board programmable intelligence to guarantee accurate strobe synchronization, robust triggering and serial I/O while relieving the host CPU of the details of counting syncs or servicing serial interrupts. A fused 12 volt DC power output is supplied through the DB-25 connector, eliminating the need for and cost of an external camera power supply. A comprehensive Software Developers Kit (optional) provides programmable access to the features of the FlashPoint 4XL Pro's hardware architecture. The SDK includes DLLs for Microsoft Windows 9x, ME, 2000, NT and XP, Visual BASIC support, MCI, Video for Windows (AVI) and TWAIN drivers, and sample applications with source code. Source code samples provide insight to various functions such as video in a window, color and chroma key, camera integration control, triple buffering, and progressive scan support. FlashPoint 4XL Pro offers DirectX and Linux support. Note: The FlashPoint 4XL Pro is NOT VISTA compatible.
