1. INTRODUCTION

The Video Serial Interface (VSI-Pro) allows characters to be

inserted into any video source via an RS-232 link. This allows comput-

ers, cash registers, ATM's and any RS-232 communicating device to

display alphanumerics in the video picture of a CCTV system. Simple

front panel push-buttons allow the user to interactively on-screen pro-

gram this powerful device.

Whether used with a cash register providing real time data on a

RS-232 port or tapping off a serial printer, the VSI-Pro is a valuable

tool in loss prevention. When used in conjunction with other AVE inter-

face devices like the Parallel to Serial converter (P2RS), the VSI-Pro

can be connected to any computer printer port for a video display of

what the printer is outputting. Additional interface modules convert for

many other standard and nonstandard communication formats. Consult

the AVE catalog or visit www.americanvideoequipment. com to choose

the proper interface to meet your need.

The VSI-Pro via its powerful internal processing of exceptions

actually intelligently monitors the data stream coming from the cash reg-

ister and alerts the user to “exceptional” or out of the ordinary transac-

tions. The VSI-Pro then can be used to trigger switchers, Time Lapse

VCR's or other alarming devices to mark these events for future or in-

stantaneous review.

The auxillary RS-232 output port of the VSI-Pro can be used to

send serial data to modems, logging PCs and PTZ controllers to do any

desired function. Multiple alarm outputs and alarm inputs allow trig-

gers from and to other equipment.

The internal on-screen Time & Date automatically locks to most

incoming data streams that include this information. This allows the

Time & Date of the CCTV system to synchronized to the POS or ATM

system to give legal evidence.
