First showing at Broadcast Asia:
Hiltron HSACU SNG controller Shown in prototype at IBC2011 and now in production, the Hiltron HSACU satellite newsgathering controller provides fully-automated satellite auto-acquisition. It is compatible with all leading motorised satellite newsgathering antennas. The HSACU is designed for integration into SNG trucks or for refurbishment of existing SNG antenna control systems. Housed in a compact rack-mountable chassis, it provides easy and efficient control of three-axis motorised antennas up to 2.4 metres in diameter. Azimuth, elevation and polarisation control are performed entirely in software.
The HSACU can be fully controlled locally or from a remote IP browser. Local control is achieved via front-panel pushbuttons and a colour touch-panel graphic display. In IP remote control mode, the entire system can be controlled from wherever is convenient to the SNG workflow. Fully automated acquisition of accessible satellites can be achieved within less than 2 minutes. An internal DVB-S/S2 tuner is provided for satellite verification. Heading determination is performed using a GPS and/or a fluxgate compass. The HSACU includes dual-axis compensation of truck inclination. It is compatible with resolvers, potentiometers. inclinometers and direct-current drive-motors.
Hiltron HSC3 universal satcom controller:
Hiltrons HCS3 universal satcom controller is a modular system based on a 2 rack-unit chassis which can be equipped with single or dual AC or DC power supplies. The user interface comprises an optional touch-sensitive liquid crystal display mounted on the front panel for local control. One of the two communication card slots is normally equipped with a networking module providing an Ethernet interface. The remaining interface connection slots can be equipped with hot-pluggable card modules.
Hiltron HMAM motorised satellite antenna mount:
The Hiltron HMAM motorised satellite antenna mount is designed for two-way VSAT communication or receive-only downlink applications. The combined head and drive form a three-axis motorised system with 180 degrees of azimuth adjustment, 90 degrees of elevation adjustment range and fully adjustable polarisation. HMAM is a complete and very affordable high-precision rotatable satellite antenna mount for use in commercial satellite operations. It includes professional-grade drives for azimuth and elevation plus a high-accuracy polarisation drive and is fully compatible with Hiltrons standard HACU antenna positioning system.
