Product Overview
Product Description
greenMachine adopts a three-prong approach to product definition and function. Rather
than being a fixed application specific box, greenMachine is a combination of general-
purpose hardware, constellation (pre-defined set of functionalities/features) for re-
programmable functionality and powerful control software.
The current greenMachine titan processes four 3G/HD/SD-SDI video streams or a single
4K/UHD video input. It offers up to 12G processing support (3840 x 2160 @60 Hz) and
provides the functionality to convert between single-link 4K video (12G) and quad-link 4K
video (2SI; 4x3G).
The greenMachine titan hardware is a powerful general-purpose audio and video
processing appliance that is custom configured using one of the pre-defined
constellations, which can be purchased through the LYNX sales network. You are not
limited to one constellation per greenMachine; you can switch between multiple licensed
constellations to configure the machine for many different applications in your workflow.
greenMachine hardware devices are standalone processing modules with an intuitive
control interface and LCD display for accessing and viewing the graphical menu. The LCD
display and menu also allows you to monitor the video inputs and outputs. An entire
greenMachine system is fully controlled by the powerful greenGUI®software available for
Windows and Mac.
greenMachine hardware devices are extremely powerful and use the very latest high
speed programmable Xilinx technology and dual ARM processors. greenMachine and its
software, APP based approach and architecture provides a future-proof solution for
numerous applications from broadcast all the way to industrial type AV uses.

Functional Diagram
Four electrical 3G/HD/SD SDI inputs and outputs are available on the greenMachine titan.
In addition to this it has an HDMI input and output as well as two optional fiber inputs and
outputs. Without any APPs installed, the greenMachine titan comes with input and output
signal routers as shown in the functional diagram below. Basic conversion functionality
from and to HDMI, SDI and Fiber are available.
The greenMachine titan comes with four audio input and output connections that can be
configured for either analog or digital audio. Basic conversion functionality from and to
analog and digital audio are available without any APPs installed. Monitoring of all inputs
and outputs including image previews and audio level meters are also part of the basic
functionality as well as the Nova controller providing support for SNMP and custom
control.
All further video and audio processing functionalities can be defined by deploying the
available constealltions.
Functional Diagram
Alternatively, the greenMachine titan can be configured with one 12G capable
Processing Path.
