NEWS New Full HD video player debuts WAVES SYSTEM/ID-AL
A new Full HD video player is being introduced on the Waves System stand at ISE 2014. The VP200HD is a standalone video player that allows users to post audio and video from a USB key. The player can run videos in all types of context without the use of computer hardware. Extensions are possible to increase the
number of trigger inputs. Videos can be triggered by a push-button or by external events such as detecting infrared movement or a door contact.
Extended features are available
on the VP250HD video player, inlcuding an electronic contact switch that can turn on lights, activate a motor or drive any kind of external hardware.
An Ethernet connection allows
users of the VP250HD to upload content to the player from any computer system. Waves System is a French
company that manufactures a range of interactive audio/video equipment, designing and trading its range under the id-al brand. Stand: 8-E215

Water-resistant speakers make a splash ARTSOUND
‘Happi’ is a Finnish word which means open, oxygen, outdoors. Now it has also been applied to a new series of water-resistant in-wall loudspeakers made by Artsound.
Based on the Xtended range, Happi includes a filter to ensure adequate suppression of vibrations – making it ideally
suited, says the company, for use in kitchens. With a frameless design and availability in four models – two circular, one square and one rectangular – it can be installed in bathrooms and on external walls. The company is also
showcasing a range of installation units made from high-density MDF which, it says, addresses the problem that can
be encountered in a false ceiling, whereby the empty space behind the panelling might be too big – with consequent adverse effect on the sound quality. These kits can accommodate both the basic in-wall speakers as well as the more expensive Gold Series (suitable for rounded, square and rectangular versions). Artsound has also responded to the latest trends in
Extenders target boardrooms, classrooms
LIGHTWARE
The new UMX-TPS product family, containing HDBaseT extenders, wall and floor plates, has been introduced by Lightware. Aimed at environments such as small boardrooms and classrooms, these devices transmit universal video at a resolution up to 4K, audio and control up to 180m distance over a single Cat cable.
At the higher end of the
scale, the UMX-TPS- TX140 extender was designed to handle digital and analogue video and audio signals, such as VGA, YPrPb, HDMI1.4 and DP 1.1 with analogue stereo audio from local inputs or embedded 7.1 HBR audio.
Analogue signals (both audio and video) are converted to a digital
format and can be transmitted separately from each other. All UMX-TPS products handle HDCP encryption. Using the factory, custom or transparent EDID emulation, the user can fix and lock EDID data on each input connector. Advanced EDID Management forces the required resolution
from any video source and fixes the output format conforming to the system requirements. The unit offers bidirectional and transparent IR, RS-232 and Ethernet transmission. The IR and RS-232 connection supports command injection, allowing it to send any IR or RS-232 control command directly from the LAN connection. Remote power is available through the single Cat cable, but local power supply can also be used.
All devices can be mounted on a rack shelf or used standalone. The UMX-TPS-TX140 is compatible with both the HDBaseT extenders and matrix switchers. Stand: 3-C128

construction. Increasingly, concrete vaulting and precast concrete are being used for this purpose. According to the company, these are essentially acoustically unfriendly surroundings. In collaboration with Helia, Artsound has come up with a solution in the form of its CKIT1 precast concrete kit. Manufactured from polyethylene, finished with a mineral fibre
panel as a base, it can be installed on a wooden construction beforehand, on which the concrete is then cast. Afterwards, just as in a false ceiling, the base panel can be cut. The CKIT1 creates a space which is empty and muffled enough to install the speaker. Loudspeaker cables can also be connected. Stand: 1-P110
Scaling receiver automatically formats signals
THINKLOGICAL
The Velocity 3 Scaling Receiver is one of a number of new products being shown at ISE 2014 by KVM signal extension and switching systems company Thinklogical. “These new additions to the Thinklogical product line offer AV system designers and integrators simpler options to create highly efficient visual computing
installations with reduced hardware and fibre requirements, while still
delivering the performance and reliability
demanded by end users,” said Joe Pajer, president and CEO, Thinklogical. “Our innovative design and patented MRTS technology ensures that Thinklogical extension solutions provide the highest quality image resolution and fullest fidelity signal delivery across distances up to 50 miles, something no competitor can match.”
48 thedaily 2014 The Velocity 3 is said to offer
The Thinklogical Velocity 3 Scaling Receiver is said to be more powerful and easier to integrate
improved performance and a substantially easier integration by automatically formatting video signals to best fit the display. By enhancing automatic EDID management, Thinklogical says that the Scaling Receiver is the ideal solution for system environments with a variety of displays and sources with multiple resolutions. Features include: support for single-link DVI signal; HDCP compliance; extension up to 80km; available support for audio and serial interfaces (3AV+ model); multi-mode or single-mode fibre capability; and compatibility with any Thinklogical
Velocity transmitter. The Velocity 3 includes hot-swappable optical modules for enhanced resilience, while a configurable text overlay notifies user of active video input and output formats. It also requires only a single fibre with no backchannel. Stand: 1-M4
