Versatile Interface Capabilities
- Mouse Control
By connecting a standard PS/2 mouse directly to the front panel of the player, users can perform a variety of operations including menu selections (during DVD video playback), player control, and set up, similar to operating a computer with a mouse. - Interface Options
The DB-15 computer interface connector provides additional signal lines that allow simple external switches to select DVD menu items or execute Barcode Stack/Command Stack functions. For example, with a simple contact closure switch, 70 separate commands including Play, Pause, etc., can be performed. This allows sophisticated custom control from a simple and inexpensive user input device. - RS-232C Control
The DVD-V7400 is equipped with an RS-232C terminal that enables connection to an external device such as a computer or custom controller. The player's mnemonic command protocol is backward compatible with Pioneer's other industrial LaserDisc and DVD-Video players. this compatibility makes it possible to use LaserDisc control programs with little revision and to control features unique to DVD, such as multi-angle and sub-picture. - DVD Barcode
With DVD Barcode, video and audio playback control can be achieved by scanning printed barcodes with the optional barcode reader. In addition, DVD Barcode is fully compatible with the LD Laser Barcode system ™, so the same barcode reader can be used for both DVD and LD discs. - Touch Screen Support
The DVD-V7400 supports X0Y coordinate RS-232 commands that allow it to be directly connected to special video monitor touch screens (available through 3rd party developers). This feature makes the DVD-Video player with touch screen integration a reliable and cost-effective interactive display for use in museums, art galleries, shopping malls or hotels. - User Response Tracking
The DVD-V7400 is able to track user selections and store the data in the player's non-volatile Flash RAM. The data can then be retrieved to evaluate user selections and preferences. This feature is perfect for kiosk and point of purchase & information installations. - Wireless and Wired Remote Control
For extra flexibility, users can operate the DVD-V7400 using the wireless remote control accessory or the optional wired remote control unit.
A Wide Range of Professional Features
- Faster Searches & Seamless Frame Searches
The DVD-V7400 features an advanced frame search function that offers the precision of random access, frame accurate search required in many industrial applications. Compared with the previous 1st generation product, the DVD-V7400 cuts average search times in half (depending on the search point). Moreover, all frame search operations are not completely seamless with the player's expanded video buffer. - External Sync Playback
An external black burst sync signal can be applied and looped through the EXT SYNC terminals to enable clean switching with other video sources and frame synchronization with using multiple players. - Barcode Stack/Command Stack
This function allows the user to save video play lists into the player's non-volatile Flash RAM (up to 300 command lines, organized in up to 150 groups) for automatic recall and display. Playback of single commands or stacks of several linked commands is possible. Users can input command sequences via remote control, barcode reader or RS-232C control. - Video Blackboard
With a standard PS/2 mouse users can draw over video to illustrate key images on the screen. Graphics can be created over still or moving video images. The user can add freehand and pre-defined graphic objects in eight colors and enter text using a standard PS/2 keyboard. Video in & out points can be saved in the player's memory to enable automatic or special display of graphics and text during video playback. - Weekly Timer and Power ONStart
This function lets you simultaneously set the player's ON and OFF times and set particular video segments for playback on each day of the week. For added flexibility the timer memory in the DVD-V7400 has been expanded to accommodate up to 24 events per week. Users can distribute the commands throughout the week as required by their specific application. In addition, it is now possible for the player to immediately display the DVD disc's first-play menu upon Power ON Start. This unique function is ideal for exhibits, point-of-purchase & information, and retail display applications.
