Kramer's PixPerfect Scaling Technology
Kramer's precision pixel mapping and high quality scaling technology. High-quality 3:2 and 2:2 pull down de-interlacing and full up- and down-scaling of all video input signals.

State-of-the-Art Video Processing Technology
For highest quality de-interlacing, noise reduction and scaling performance for both standard-definition and high-definition signals.

K-IIT XL Picture-in-Picture Image Insertion Technology
Ultra-stable picture-in-picture, picture-and-picture and split screen capability. Any video source can be inserted into or positioned next to any other video source with full window positioning and sizing controls.

Ultra-Fast Fade-Thru-Black (FTB) Switching
Video switching transitions are clean and ultra fast. The video fades to black and the new input fades from black for smooth, glitch-free switching. The output signal provides constant sync so the display never glitches.

Advanced EDID Management
Per input; analyzes the EDID of a selectable Master connection to one of the outputs.

System Range
Up to 130m (430') at normal mode (2K), up to 100m at normal mode (4K); up to 180m (590') ultra mode (1080p at 60Hz at 24bpp) when using BC-HDKat6a cables.

Output Resolutions
HDTV and computer graphics up to 2K and 1080p/UXGA with selectable refresh rates.

Multi-Standard Video Support
NTSC (3.58/4.43), PAL (M/N/60) and SECAM with advanced de-interlacing options.

Audio Support
Unbalanced stereo audio inputs, with two microphone inputs; digital stereo and balanced stereo outputs; input and output audio level adjustment.

Automatic Detection and Selection of Embedded Audio
Automatically outputs the signal from the HDMI and DP embedded audio inputs or performs an analog takeover to output the respective analog audio input.

Picture Zooming
Both on main and PIP window from 100% to 1600%, including separate V and H sharpness control.

On-Screen Display (OSD)
For easy setup and adjustment, accessible via the IR remote control and via the front-panel buttons.

Flexible Control Options
Front panel buttons, OSD (on-screen display) via front panel buttons or IR remote (remote control included), embedded Web server.

Mass Notification Emergency Communication System (MNEC)
Activates a national or campus-wide notification, immediately displayed when an emergency situation develops. It uses automatic text overlaying, either via a crawler or a full screen cover up, as well as an optional audio alert.

Port Tunneling
A bidirectional RS-232 interface where simple control commands and data can flow in both directions from a controller to the VP-773A via the Ethernet, allowing status requests and control of the destination unit.

Applications
• Projection systems in conference rooms, boardrooms, auditoriums, hotels and churches, production studios, rental and staging
• Any application where high quality conversion and switching of multiple and different video signals to graphical data signals is required for projection purposes
