MedeaWiz Sprite

High Definition Video Player

The Medea Wiz Sprite is a High Definition digital video repeater capable of HD 1080p HDMI output.
It has a direct trigger input and a 2-way communications serial port.
The Sprite will loop a video when power is applied, play a different video on a trigger or serial command, and then go back to the looping video.
The Sprite has no black space when looping or changing files. It will hold the last frame of video until the first frame displays.

IR Remote Control

We use a generic remote control that is used for various models of video repeaters and DVD players. 
Not all buttons/functions will respond, and some are only valid in certain modes. 
Most of our Customers will only use the remote for initial setup of the repeater. 
This is an IR control, and needs to be pointed directly at the front of the Sprite. 
The Sprite may respond to some other device’s IR remote in unwanted ways.

AV cable, 3.5mm 4 pole to RCA

Use the Red RCA to send commands to the Sprite, the yellow RCA for the Sprite to report back to your control, and the white RCA for 5V power from the Sprite. We suggest you cover the unused RCA plugs with electrical tape to avoid shorting the power supply and burning the internal fuse. If you get a cable elsewhere, check to see that the wiring is the same. We have seen some cables where the red, yellow and white RCA are wired to different poles on the 3.5mm plug.

I/O plug, 3.5mm 4 pole to screw terminals

The screw terminal adaptor shown above on the right is now included with the Sprite.
The Sprite can supply 5 Volts DC on the I/O port for your micro-controller at up to 100 mA.

AC adaptor, 100 to 240 Volt AC input, 5 Volt DC output

The Sprite is one of the most energy efficient 'green' video repeaters available.
Using only 5 Volt DC power at an average of 400 mA, it takes only about 2 Watts to run.
The Sprite requires a regulated 5 Volt DC power supply, which is included.
The power connection takes a barrel plug with 1.35mm ID and 3.5mm OD, center Positive.
