Autoscript EPIC-IP On-Camera Package with 17" Prompt Monitor & Integrated Talent Monitor

The Autoscript EPIC-IP On-Camera Package with 17" Prompt Monitor & Integrated Talent Monitor has become the #1 on-camera monitor for broadcast in the world, thanks to its unique design (which combines a high-bright prompting screen with an integrated talent monitor). As part of the Intelligent Prompting system development, E.P.I.C. has been enhanced to offer the ultimate connectivity and flexibility.

The new EPIC-IP integrated prompting system uses the EVO-IP prompt monitor with its sleek design and built-in connectivity. The monitor also includes dual HD-SDI and Composite inputs for on-air input and use with an external scroll box. The E.P.I.C. Talent Monitor (ETM) is detachable, offering the flexibility to upgrade from an EVO-IP at any point.

The EPIC-IP 17" integrates an EVO-IP prompt monitor with an equally sized ETM. Its compact size and lighter weight make it the ideal choice even for small robotic setups. The talent monitor is mounted using friction hinges to allow easy readjustment of viewing angle, and folds under the prompt monitor when not required. The drive electronics remain integrated into the main prompt monitor, reducing the talent monitor depth, weight, and power consumption. 

As an on-camera system, the EPIC-IP includes Autoscript's new Intelligent Prompting mounting assembly and carbon fiber hood. The complete monitor, hood, and mounting assembly have been carefully calculated to minimize the number of parts, vastly improve setup time, and reduce the lens opening at the rear of the hood. The lens is sealed using a flexible ring, providing greatly improved access for direct control via hand grip, or for connection of pan bar Zoom/Focus control.

To further simplify the system, the CLOCKPLUS-IP time code, tally, and camera number display (not included) integrate directly with the ETM, which ensures minimal distance between prompt and talent monitors, as well as an attractive, unified appearance.

Features:

• Lightest 17" prompt and talent monitor solution available; minimizes camera support issues
• Unique integrated full HD talent monitor with SDI and CVBS input
• Prompt monitor networks directly to WinPlus-IP (not included) for simple integration and perfect synchronisation without a scroll box
• No restriction of camera tilt caused by non-integrated talent monitor mounting brackets
• Unique folding hood design massively reduces setup for time-critical and protects glass during transportation
• Optimized mounting kit and hood geometry allow use of the widest lenses on the market (4.3mm)
• No counterbalance needed for almost all camera/lens configurations, further reducing weight
• (4) integrated tally lights, giving 270° visibility around the teleprompter
• Integration of CLOCKPLUS-IP clock and camera ID display (not included) creates attractive time, tally, camera ID solution
• Unique Intelligent Prompting mounting system for rapid setup and guaranteed lens/prompt monitor alignment
