MSCAN - SEE THE DIFFERENCE!
Did you know thousands of pictures can be received every day on your receiver?
Whether it is on long- or shortwave, on CB or VHF, you can come accross them
everywhere. Using MSCAN you can visualize each picture on your IBM-compatible
PC in black & white or full colour! With your transmitter you can transmit
these pictures yourself, in up to 16.8 million colours. The fully multitasking
software allows pictures to be loaded or digitized and overlaid with text
while you are receiving or transmitting another picture!
The superb performance and unique features make MSCAN standout from any
existing programs which are available today!
INTERFACES
To convert the signals between your receiver (and transmitter) and your PC you
will need an interface. MSCAN supports many popular interfaces.
Microscan RX
By using digital signal processing MSCAN is able to achieve very good results,
even with this low cost compact interface. A cable with 3.5mm jack connector
is attached for connection to any receiver. Microscan RX is compatible with
Hamcomm, and so can be used to receive other modes like Morse, RTTY, NAVTEX
and TOR.
Miniscan
A handy compact interface packed with advanced technology. Miniscan features
an entirely new OPAMP circuit for decoding, a real sinewave generator for
distortion free signal generation, an auto calibration circuit, a programmable
output level, and a built-in Hamcomm emulator! So get the best results with
MSCAN, and still be able to use your other favourite programs!
Multiscan
This is our top-of-the-line model which uses an advanced PLL decoder for the
best noise suppression achievable, and has a sinewave generator for distortion
free modulation. Multiscan is the best guarantee for clearer pictures under
worse conditions.
Other manufacturers
MSCAN supports many other interfaces like Hamcomm, EasyFax and ViewPort VGA.
For audio output the PC speaker or any Ad Lib or Sound Blaster compatible card
can be used too.
VIDEO INPUT
Capture true colour video directly to your MSCAN screen, using the
professional Iris videodigitizer, the Video Blaster (original, SE, FS200 and
SE100), or the ComputerEyes/RT. And because MSCAN is multitasking, you are
able to do this while transmitting or receiving!
MODES
MSCAN 2.11 supports all popular B&W and colour SSTV & Fax modes, including the
latest modes like martin 1/2, scottie 1/2/DX and robot 72 s. SSTV VIS codes
are supported. Another unique feature is that Fax decoding is fully automatic,
including setting of IOC and LPM!
