The SE-900 is a two piece, eight input SD switcher that is fast and easy to use. It accepts your choice of up to eight input boards for DV, SDI, DVI, YUV, S-Video and Composite video. In addition, there are two memories for logo displays as well as a CG overlay channel so you may use a CG (CG-100) as a DSK and retain access to the multiple outputs of the SE-900 switcher.
Card options include external synch and a chromakey card that allows cuts between two cameras and two backgrounds. The rack mounted processing unit of the SE-900 is connected to the control surface via an RS-232 cable. In order to simplify decisions about what to buy we have prepared several “kits” but you may order as many and whichever input cards you want. As with all Datavideo products SE-900 works on 12vDC or local power.

General
Q: Does the SE-900 support high definition signals?
A: No, the SE-900 only supports standard definition signals.
Q: How do I change the size of the blocks inside the mosaic box?
A: Press the "mosaic" button to enable the blocks. Press "Position Control" button under the joystick. In the transition section, press either the large square box button or the smaller button to increase or decrease the block area (These buttons are next to the AB button). Press the speed key to increase or decrease the block distortion size.
Q: I want to make a longer serial cable to extend the distance from my SE-900 controller to the switcher. What type of cable is required?
A: A standard db-9 (pin to pin) male to female cable can be used. Do not use a cross pin type db-9 cable. When extending the distance of the controller, we recommend using the included power supply to provide power to the controller.
Troubleshooting
