LYNX Technik GMPT TESTOR US 4K UHD 4 x 3G SDI Audio / Video Test Signal Generator

LYNX Technik has long been recognized for its feature-rich and user friendly multi-format test signal generators through its "Testor" series. The greenMachine Testor is the company's latest offering of test signal generators. greenMachine Testor is an ideal trouble-shooting A/V tool for technicians and engineers working in the field, in-studio applications and for alignment tasks in master control rooms. Anywhere there is an A/V testing, designing, repairing and troubleshooting environment, the greenMachine Testor will be useful. The greenMachine Testor supports 12G (4K UHD), 3G, HD, SD-SDI formats and when operating in UHD mode, the Testor operates as a single channel test generator. For 3G/HD/SD video formats the Testor provides four independent test generators.

The greenMachine Testor can be switched between two configurations: Single Channel 4K/UHD (up to 3840 x 2160p) - 12GbIt's SDI and quad link (2SI) outputs, and Four independent channels up to 3G SDI. A HDMI (1.4b) output is also provided, and optional fiber outputs are also available (12G SDI and 3G SDI). The greenGUI software provides users with a true, advanced preview interface (including zoom) to check test signals in the GUI, control the outputs, format the settings, and manage user-defined image and test pattern uploads.

The greenMachine Testor also offers specialized test signals for various HDR standards (PQ, HLG, SLog3). Plus, the full collection of test signals can be shared with all greenMachine devices in a network (greenUniverse). The integrated graphics editor provides a tool for users to place images & logos, add text, and even add user-defined signal patterns and graphics. All items can be moved and edited simply with a computer mouse. A scaler ensures users can scale test patterns to match the desired output format.

Each greenMachine is preloaded with all the available constellations (configurations). This package has the GMC-TESTOR constellation installed and licensed. You can freely load any of the available constellations (configurations) for testing and evaluation at any time, the video and audio will be watermarked until licensed. You can have multiple constellations licensed for the same machine and switching between configurations takes only a few seconds. Constellations can also be shared if you have more than one greenMachine on the network.
