DL16 – Digital Logo Driver is a high performance logo generator/inserter for serial digital signals. Logos are created with any graphic software in *.BMP or *.TGA formats, at 16.7 millions of colours, even with mask thus uploaded from PC to the Logo Driver memory via RS-232. The Windows®-based control software standard provided allows the logo transfer as well as the sending of the control commands from PC; tools to re-size or cut the image for the *.BMP format are available, too. By disconnecting the serial line, the commands are thus all available from control panel or GPI, allowing a stand-alone control of the generator. The animation, slide show, standard and programmable crawl functions, transparency and "grey" effects, are the main performances of this new logo generator. Beside, it is possible to display four independent logos both horizontally than vertically at the same time.

By disconnecting the serial line, the commands are thus all available from control panel or GPI, allowing a stand-alone control of the generator. Transparency, crawl (standard or programmable) effects are available and the new “grey” effect that is the possibility to select from control panel the direct conversion of a coloured logo into B/W (grey palette). It is also possible to display two logos at the same time or a vertical logo.
