Advanced scaling algorithms and 10bit processing provide exceptionally clean and accurate broadcastquality output.

The Scan Do HD is fully genlockable to tri-level sync or black burst and provides the broadcast engineer with precision genlock phasing controls.

The all new Scan Do HD is feature rich with Processing Controls that include Brightness, Contrast, Sharpness, Hue, and Saturation, comes equipped with Variable Flicker Reduction control, and Zoom and Pan functionality.

Quickly switch between configurations by utilizing Scan Do HD's six user defined presets via the front panel or the remote control ports! You can even take control of Scan Do HD from anywhere in the world by utilizing the standard Ethernet-based GUI or RS-232.

The Scan Do HD is ideal for integrating into a Broadcast Studio for on-air use or for integrating into other broadcast distribution channels. And, Scan Do HD's SMPTE 297-2006 compliant fiber optic output makes integrating over distances a snap!
