The Decimator DMON-16SL converts an HDMI display into a flexible 16-window SDI multiview monitor, suitable for rental productions that need reliable monitoring without a laptop accessory. The unit accepts multiple SDI sources, buffers inputs to handle sources that are not frame‑locked, and provides on-device controls in addition to computer-based configuration.

Key Features

• 16 SDI inputs displayed on HDMI output, with selectable output formats in both full-screen and multiview modes.
• Support for 3G‑SDI level A and B on inputs, allowing compatibility with a wide range of SDI devices.
• Low latency per-input buffering to accommodate non-synchronous sources while keeping lip-sync and timing intact.
• Customizable layouts, including multiple standard presets and the ability to load and restore saved layouts for quick setup changes.
• Per-window UMD overlay, 16 characters per window, with individual enable/disable, positioning, and sizing. Also supports audio ID overlays.
• Fast input switching using full-screen scaling for quick source checks and troubleshooting.

Use Cases

• Production trucks and flypacks that need a compact multiview over HDMI without adding a dedicated multiview monitor.
• Event rentals where operators require quick layout recall and on-the-fly source identification via UMD and audio overlays.
• Remote or temporary installations where inputs may not be genlocked, benefiting from per-input buffering.
