PremierView15ID
Calibre specialises in high performance
LCD display solutions for industrial,
surveillance, OEM, military, aerospace
and broadcast applications. PremierView
monitors feature flexible signal capability,
excellent motion reproduction and
accurate, artifact free image re-sizing.
Calibre's PremierView15ID is a very high
performance TFT-LCD display. Based
around Calibre's proprietary PremierView4
LCD driver technology, it is able to
connect directly to a very wide range of
video or computer image sources and
display images full screen on its 15"
viewable diagonal, wide viewing angle
screen.
PremierView4 is one of the most flexible LCD systems on the market able to accept a wide range of input
resolutions. PremierView4 features true autoscanning real-time software algorithms to allow it to be adjusted to
suit most non-standard resolutions and signal timings within its resolution, line and field rate ranges. Specific
compatibility with non-standard signal timings and custom resolutions can also be provided as a customer specific
option and special industrial models are available for use on ABB Mod300/Tesselator, CGA/EGA/BBC TTL signals
& Siemens WF470. These are detailed on model-specific datasheets, please see our website or call your Calibre
sales representative for full details.
PremierView15ID uses a 1024x768 TFT LCD panel for display of real-time Video or computer VGA-SXGA full
screen, full-motion in real time. Through the standard VGA connector, composite sync and sync on green from
high resolution sources such as workstations are also supported. A DVI digital graphics input is available as an
optional extra.
A professional grade video decoder is available as an option which gives outstanding composite and YC video
performance through the use of a 4-line comb filter and vertical noise reduction algorithm. This option also adds a
selectable RGB/YUV component video input. SDI serial digital video with PAL or NTSC timings is also available
as an additional option. A lower cost standard grade video decoder is also available for less demanding
applications.
High performance scaling algorithms work without compromising image quality or resolution irrespective of the
signal resolution implemented. It is compatible with Composite and Y/C (SVHS, S-video) inputs with automatic
detection of PAL, NTSC & SECAM video, and/or most computer RGB signals from 640x350 up to 1280x1024.
Very flexible wide-ranging picture controls are provided via an on-screen menu. These controls include picture
size/position controls as well as contrast, brightness, and colour/hue for video.
PremierView15ID uses a premium grade high-brightness high-contrast 15" TFT-LCD panel with 24-bit per pixel
colour depth and very wide viewing angles. This ensures maximum colour depth and accurate grey-scale
reproduction, with no field merging, no field dropping or repetition and no pixel or line dropping to ensure accurate
motion reproduction and clean image scaling.
PremierView15ID comes as a metal cased display unit or as an OEM open chassis module. The metal cased
display unit incorporates side mounting points and VESA-compatible rear mountings. Cased units include an anti-
scratch, anti-glare front viewing window. Touchscreens are also available for all models. Optional accessories
include a desk stand, wall mounts, telescopic arm mount and 19" rackmount adapter.
