Design, control and deliver dynamic, critical information to display devices located anywhere on your Ethernet network – from studio to newsroom, providing station automation and control interfaces.
Clocks, count-downs, tally lights and many other display elements have traditionally required cumbersome individual units, often built into expensive, handcrafted enclosures. IDS combines all that and more, including video streams, URLs, multiple clocks, indicator lamps, alarms, status alerts, RSS feeds and control interfaces. Using off-the-shelf display products, IDS is a neat, expandable solution.
BBC Cambridge
A building-wide networked, control and display system, delivering NTC referenced time displays, dynamic tally and broadcast status, emergency information and 'live-link' CCTV feeds in every studio, enabling presenters to make eye contact with each other.
IDS SQ-DTC
Interface with production timers, timecode devices and IDS displays. Dual LTC inputs make the SQ‑DTC an ideal companion to a Harris production timer, meaning that all your stations production timings can be managed by IDS and sent to displays across your network.
Centralised playout
IDS provides a visual 'live-link' between network directors in their various playout positions and continuity announcers in their isolated booths and, an interface for the Snell Morpheus automation system, displaying count-down information for over 20 channels simultaneously.
